    I have noticed two so far, and reported them both.

    The posts usually go like this,

    User: There is a lot of spammer activity as of recently

    Spammer: I agree,, There is a lot of spammer activity as of recently

    If you see it, just report. I don't know if there is a master plan or what, it is kinda wierd.

    There is this never ending battle between spammers and mods, so please report whatever bad things you see and we will try to stave them off.

    I love reporting spammers and watching them get nuked. :laugh:

    Except when I got it wrong once and reported a very badly worded first post as spam and the poor sap actually got banned until it was realized he wasn't a spammer. :eek:
