    Apologies if this belongs in Spammer Notification but think it's better placed here ...

    I've soft-deleted TalkTo Adverts thread. Thread is getting a ridiculously high number of views (400 more views in last 2 hours) to a total of 10.6k+ in 48 hours. ~100 views would be on the high side of normal for a 2 day & not particularly interesting thread on there so am guessing there's a spambot trying to get access (see OP for why that might be happening - or why I should go to CT forum :p)

    Thanks for the heads up, I'll take a look through the logs and see what I can come up with.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
