I think spam is appearing, probably linked to the number of odd-sounding new members who seem to join the forum each day.

I used to use the Duolingo language learning site and it suddenly became ovvewhelmed with constant spam including many posts promoting links to pornographic sites.
The site owners seemed unable to get a grip and it got worse and worse. It was particularly bad, as a lot of children used that site.
Hope this does not become a problem here.

It may be OK now. I haven't looked for months.
For Spanish I like www.spanishdict.com. It has lots of resources and exercises.
Another good site is www.holaquepasa.com. it has news stories in easy Spanish, which you can read and listen to.

It was the forums and blogs that were hijacked. They weren't useful anyway, in my view.
Duolingo lessons were good for drilling, but I found the format got too repetitive for me after a while.
Good luck with your efforts. I hope I can use some Spanish on a cruise, although maybe mask-wearing will create an added challenge!

Originally posted by sandraggg, Newcastle View PostI've reported one, but I don't really want to click on the thread anyway.
Every day someone with an odd user name joins the forum. It started a few weeks ago.
This forum doesn't have that many active members. It must be obvious to Admin.
They like to be able to say
Over 125,000 members.

I sent him a PM a few days ago and haven't had a reply which would be unusual for him.

Hi all,
I apologise for all of the recent spam. Seems like a few topics have managed to get their way through our spam filters.
All spam topics have been deleted and will continue to be removed, along with these members being banned immediately. Please take care when reading new threads and approach with caution if anything seems suspicious. And as always, if you can report spam threads/posts whenever you see them, that will greatly help us in ensuring no spam is able to live on this Forum.
Thanks,
Amar
