So, I went ahead and translated the Korean in Google Translate and it's some sort of Korean massage advertisement. Repeats "Massage Mass production" over and over.
We should try to urge the spammers to take up a new hobby, like homebrewing. They would have less time to hack, and more time to enjoy the better things in life ... beer.
Also, who actually enjoys Korean massages anyway...
My girlfriend is Korean.
So, maybe they meant to be sending us massages, but instead we're getting messages...
I've been to Korea several times. Does that count for anything?
These guys have hit us hard many times in the past. Once in a while they try again and we ban them and eventually they give up. Haven't found a good automated way to prevent them, but the ban tools are more streamlined and the mods try very hard to seek and destroy them as soon as they appear.
The nice thing is they are easy to spot, and they don't really do much hard other than annoy.
See, if only they had filled up 11 pages with the same thing, I might have bought something. But a mere ten pages? Pshh.
Exactly. I mean why put in that level of effort?
I get that it is done by a bot. By why even put in the effort to create the bot , for this?
Last time we got hit hard with that kspam, slym made some comment in one of the spam threads and the spammer responded to him. Funny. So it's not always a bot.

Comedian George Wallace said something like "Baccarat is easy. I can teach anyone to play baccarat. Playing baccarat is just like playing craps: you put your chips down, and then the dealer picks them up."

if these are just bots, then it might be worthwhile to put a box that you have to check "I'm not a bot" before a post can be made.
Captcha doesn't really work. Bots can be programmed to click boxes.
Beware: Cyberdyne Systems is real - Skynet has gained self awareness. The FERMINATOR is coming to shutdown all homebrewers.
I'll be back...

Looks like the Korean hackers are at it again today...
