I just started posting again for the first time since the new layout and already I’m getting spam bots in my messages. What on Earth is going on? Surely there has to be a better options than this new layout which most members seem to hate?
Never had this problem …just embrace the change it takes a little bit you’ll be fine.
Takes a little time? Been trying to get used to it since it changed over a year ago 
The old forum was better, plain and simple, this new layout didn’t stop spam bots
Ya I get it man I hate spam too. But you’ll have to talk to the higher ups to get the change you want. Did you report the spam?
Right and they said this was one of the reason for the new format was to stop all the spam bots.
Well they do at least deal with it, I reported a bunch awhile back they were posting threads and it got dealt with. Unfortunatel it’s happening I don’t think there’s really a way to completely prevent it.
