Me too with with the spam reporting. I've only just seen it so sorry mods if it's a bit redundant

I haven't had anything. I think we all know it is the Chinese Hamster resistance at work here lol! I know it is serious, just making a joke - it brings images to mind of lots of little Chinese hamsters in nerdy glasses sitting at their computers. My password checker said 4,000 years. It's not very nice, but well done to admins for sorting it.

I guess the reason for trying to hack is, if they get into your account they know your email address and can send loads of spam to it.

Very not cool! I just got a pm from a klmitchell about a site about pet something or other. I noticed the "member" has been banned already. I just changed my password to one that would take 12 Trillion years to be cracked, or so the program says. This is very annoying and alarming.
