It's getting slightly more complicated to work out what's spam and what isn't. There have been one or two contributions containing links to other sites - Spanish lessons being one of the latest, of all things - which apparently bear on legitimate subjects but actually have nothing whatever to do with the thread in which they're included. <div>
</div><div>Hence, I'm afraid there rather clearly IS a deliberate attempt by individuals to subvert this site; spam bots, whatever they might be, are not the sole culprits. </div><div>
</div><div>So have a care about the posts to which you reply: some of them are fairly, if not very, clever - but still spam. Actually - see how many you can spot, and challenge. May as well make a game of it...... </div>
