    Over the past two days, this site has been under attack by overseas spammers.

    I have been working hard to remove these threats and ban them. However, they are persistent.

    If you notice any unusual messages, please be assured that I am on top of this.

    These spammers are very persistent. Every day, I spend about 15 minutes banning their IP addresses and cleaning up their malicious posts. It's like playing this game:

    I've noticed, I feel sorry for you having to deal with it. It is appreciated though.

    I am still playing "wack-a-mole" every morning. I don't know what these spammers think they are accomplishing?
