    I'm sure we all appreciate the work the team has put in on the new forums, I'd like to make a small, tiny suggestion...
    Add in a filter to auto-delete (or at least hide and alert a mod) any post with a subject line that contains "cheap kitchens"?

    Yeah, the kitchen spammers are back...

    it must be because of all our discussions about designing and using tables, and needing more space for our tables. 😛

    I never thought of it that way. Now it makes sense to advertise kitchens in a SQL Server site. All those people talking about tables and having nice views.

    or live-stream in a url in the body of the post
    That seems to be common in some of the different spams I've seen.
    And does linkedin belong in a url in the body of a post?
    I could see someone possibly using in a signature, but have a hard time seeing where it would belong in the body of a post. 

    Posting a link to an article one found on LinkedIn?

    What I see most of the time in these spam posts is a whole list of links. The entire post has nothing but links. Surely it wouldn't be too difficult to at least flag posts like this from users with say < 10 points and more than 1 link? At least then a person could look at them before they get splattered on the site.

    Made the same suggestion.  Shoot... I even offered to write an instead of trigger that would knock that type of spam out of the sky.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
