Annoying. Sometimes I find myself spending time deleting spam so I have less time to respond to actual car threads.

I have fun banning the posters on the rare chance I catch one that slips by Jim or Angelo

You guys must do a good job. I'm on here quite a bit and I haven't seen any spam threads or the such.

Lots of them are subtle. The links are embedded into the text.
I used to have fun editing those links in different ways, but pretty quickly that turned into a boring chore. Easier to delete the post.

You can usually tell spam because it really doesn't contribute towards answering the original question from whoever started the thread.
