Seen an uptick on spambots lately. Drums, drums in the deep. They are coming...

The Watcher in the Water took Óin
Too soon man, too soon....
But the white fury of the Northmen burned the hotter, and more skilled was their knighthood with long spears and bitter. Fewer were they but they clove through the Southrons like a fire-bolt in a forest.

The spam posts are coming in at a rate that isn't excessive, which tells me they aren't robots. When we've had robots in the past, we get dozens a DAY, and these have been isolated accounts...which makes me believe they were isolated account applications. Odd, but not uncontrollable.

We have security question that get changed every so often when this happens. If it gets out of hand, we'll change them again.
