For the last hour or so (maybe more) the forums are filled with stupid spam advertisement for stupid astrologers!

For example:

    When the forums were moved to the current version, that functionality disappeared. @meddle and @mikeb are working on a solution. We're doing the best we can to keep up and 99% of spam won't last more than a few minutes. Thanks for you patience.

    Apparently Vanilla holds back a number of features found in the hosted version from the open source one.

    Apparently causes considerable debate and reportedly the community has built some of these on their own.

    They'll fix it. Meanwhile go surf elsewhere and come back after awhile. No big deal.

    That's why you should always use in-house forums. Besides the integration which is always a bitch and never works as it should, there are other problems as well.

    Proxies are unlimited and would eventually block some legit users.
    Same reason after i reported Ip's to the FBI and RCMP they both said they knew about the hackers scams for years but cannot catch them.
    In reality,is there much difference than this site puts a clickbait link into everyone of their articles?BOTH are doing the same thing,trying to get us to click something that is unnecessary fro the sake of making money,so BOTH are disrespecting users.Sure one entity owns the site and puts into it while the other does not but both are not acting in good faith.

    Thanks for clarification. 

    I am personally not so much bothered by the spam. When I see it, I just close the page and come back an hour later or so knowing it will be gone :).
    Thank you for not turning into an outrage snowflake or an armchair forum expert.

    What is this thing you call "sleep"?  It sounds so pleasant...
