It's pretty appalling this morning... gracious. I have four pages of unread threads and 90% of them are spam!

I have a theory about where it is coming from...remember those posts about video games some members play?

Many of the game deal in virtual goods that are sold for real money ("illegally") over the internet.

They may be googling the terms/names of the games and hitting our website forum....

We might do well to delete all posts that reference gaming

Yikes!! The spam has gone to a whole new level! Here I am scrolling though threads, reading about lovely orchids when my poor eyes come across porn photos! Definitely NOT what I was expecting to see here! Gave them the spammer infraction and then quickly closed the page!

I still think there is link on the board that is dragging them in.
Using an automated bot for particular words used on the OB might work. You can put together a seeded list of keywords and phrases?
