Why all the spam ads?

Sign in to disble this ad
I have not been here very long, so I honestly don't know. When I went to the home page just now, there were 7 new threads that all lead to people posting spam ads. Ugg boots, Mulberry bags - they were being posted under basses, recordings, wherever.
Somewhat easy to navigate around, I suppose. Irksome at any rate.

I got the two for ugh boots. They seem to have increased in frequency within the last month or so.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I think many people in the USA are busy shopping this time of year. Could be why the ads are increasing. Maybe....

We didn't get quite this many last year though, and most the ones we are getting can't even put a coherent sentence together.

It's possible that a workaround for the current version of vBulletin has been found. Maybe with the next update of the forum software it'll calm it back down again.
