Brewology + New Users + Spam
The spam kept getting worst until phpBB couldn't handle mod/admin requests when going through the spam to remove it and filter out the real users.
So...I manually ran through and remove a gigabyte of spam. I deleted the spam users and all the posts associated with them. I also added some things to try and prevent spam.
New Users - I am so sorry if I accidentally deleted your posts and your accounts. Please sign up again and try again... I have some new stuff in place to help prevent this from happening again.
Old Users - Sorry for the lag... I didn't realize this was happening and I definitely should be checking in more. Hope you guys are still lurking so you can talk / chat / post in peace again.
Spammers - I hate you.
