If the PPC is being specifically targeted it may be someone who had their badfic sporked and is now out for revenge.

As far I know, even though you have the option of logging in, you don't need to, even to post a new topic. I've only logged in once, when I first joined, but that's it; I've been able to post new topics without being logged in as well. Apparently, a lot of people have trouble with it, and it was decided that logging in wasn't such a vital action as long as everyone knows who's posting. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

That makes sense with the spam. :/ It really sucks that you can't log in; hope the trouble passes soon.

Well this is a bit inconvenient. I hate spam. Both kinds. Unless it's in sushi.

It's really good. It's basically like California rolls, only with little pieces of spam instead of crab or whitefish.

Best wait for the Nameless Admin to do their thing. I'm sure they will be around before too much longer.
The spam on the secondary board has me baffled though. What are the odds that a random spam bot would hit both boards, when there is no direct link from this one to that, at least as far as I am aware. -

Not random then, I'm guessing. Maybe there's an actual person who decided to send the spambot after us on both? Set it up, then sat back to laugh? I'm not sure how these things work, but I'm sure it could happen. They'd have to be pretty bored, though.

I discovered the PPC towards the end of last year, I don't remember exactly when because I have a terrible memory.
I guess wondering if it's a disgruntled badfic writer is a pretty obvious thing. The desire for revenge is a very common one. -

But that too has been hit by spam.
