Crazy Latin thread
Last night there was a thread that appeared in the "Welcome and how to join the Greenhouse" section, it was really lengthy and was written in something that resembles Greek or Latin, it was also started by a user that doesn't 'exist'... strange goings on. Obviously it's gone now.
What on Earth happened there?

Well... in the side bar where we usually have avatars, join dates etc... this guy had nothing, just a name at the top and then complete white.
I also searched for the name in the members list... nothing.

Re: Crazy Latin thread
I know... I'm just curious as to what it was. One of the mods or admins would have to have an answer as for it to be gone, they'd have had to have removed it.

Appears to be a new form of spam, where the spammers are posting messages without going through the membership hurdle. Not much we can do at this stage but remove the spam messages.

How is that even possible?

between 12am? usually if something's "between", there's a 2nd variable involved.david231280 wrote:between 12am

Incidentally, it was a cyrillic language.Sterlk wrote:it was really lengthy and was written in something that resembles Greek or Latin
from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyrillic_alphabet
Marko! What have you been up to???The Cyrillic alphabet (pronounced /sɨˈrɪlɪk/; also called azbuka, from the old name of the first two letters) is a family of alphabets, subsets of which are used by five Slavic national languages (Bulgarian, Russian, Belarusian, Serbian, Macedonian and Ukrainian) as well as non-Slavic (Kazakh, Uzbek, Kyrgyz and Tajik of the former Soviet Union, and Mongolian). It is also used by many other languages of Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, Siberia and other languages in the past.
