Since I have been using this site there seems to have been an increase in spam anybody else notice this or is it just me being paranoid? ???

We have an auto-substitute system on the forum.....whenever anyone mentions "custard" it gets subbed with"custard"
Now as this is a hardscaping/paving forum, I wouldn't expect much use of the v-word!

Thanks Dave that's solved the problem for the v word but why custard? Seems strange since I see "Hardcore" mentioned on this site a lot it doesn't change that!!
Cheers Ian
