It busts my heart to see that the Chomsky section hasn't been cleaned of fakes/spam/etc.
for over nine weeks.

The first was posted on the 1st of June, the last on the 20th of July.
I've watched it grow as the days pass, finally I have to post here and hope someone does something.

It's the only section of the index that has any spam atm.

How many lose incentive at seeing it like this for so long?
In this two months, how many others have just stopped looking?

OBT was/is the place for Chomsky torrents.

sorry, I cleaned that mess up. don't hesitate to holler at me earlier next time.

I've got no Idea how these got overlooked. We don't usually have to clean up section by section, we catch that shit right when it gets posted.

In our defence, and to give you an idea what kind of an onslaught we're dealing with here: of the 10.000 torrents that have been posted since we started the site (that's right, we just hit that exact number today), about 2.000 were spam and fakes, 90% of which were removed manually - one by one. I've done some coding in recent past to give us some tools, but the spammers are becoming more and more sophisticated and they're all the harder to deal with because apparently it's real people, not bots..

Thanks Martin,

and congrats on the 10,000 mark.

I know how annoying spammers can be. It is a massive and ongoing problem.
I ban them daily. There's more each day.
Let's hope they all meet a troll's end.

Thank you.
