I haven't had any spam, but then I haven't posted for a few months. Probably
they ran one of these doohickeys that follows all links, and picked the
addresses right off the profiles for posters. By compiling a list of who's been
spammed and when they posted, it might be possible to figure out when they did
it - but probably better to send them a nasty email.

Regards
