Thanks Classic, but the hard yards done to tighten things up in the back end was all Abby and Stuart. I just flagged the Bots when I got back to work Tuesday, which hid their posts. Once again, apologies for the gross intrusion and thanks for for your understanding everyone!  Cheers, Frank.

Hey guys,

Thanks for bringing the spam bots incident to our attention here and via email. We’re really sorry that this impacted your community chats over the weekend. We’ve now restricted those spam bot accounts and removed all of the posts.  Of course, we don’t want this to occur again, so we’re implementing a range of settings and tools to prevent spam accounts. These settings and tools are sophisticated and should not have any impact on current forum users or genuine international brewers. 

Cheers,

Coopers DIY Beer Team

Thanks @Coopers DIY Beer Team Frank, Abby and Stuart. Well played. Very much appreciated.
