Yes, but it’s really slow going. Over 50,000 spam topics have been created and they all have to be removed about 10 at a time. Each group takes about a minute to remove, so to remove all of them will take about 5,000 minutes or 83 hours. Even working 8 hours a day would take over a week. I’m looking to find a way to do it quicker, but so far I’ve been unsuccessful.
And that’s just to clean up the mess. Next I have to devise a whole new security system. I’ve been able to stop the spammers from creating new accounts, but the only way I was able to do this was by completely disabling the registration system. This makes it impossible for new members to make an account.
I wish I would have known about the problems sooner. I don’t visit here enough to be able to keep on top of things.
