If you go to http://web.yorkhackspace.nathan.uk0.bigv.io any more, you'll get a delightful little 301, with some convenient forwarding thrown in.

Yes folks, http://york.hackspace.org.uk is set up at last. :D

Praise be to /(the)? [gG]ods?/.

Are we being spammed?
There are several users in the user list on the wiki that (give or take a few minutes) were signed up one every 24 hours.
The format of the names is the same too, one upper case letter, some more lower case letters and then four digits (all years roughly within the last century).
That's suspicious!

It looks that way. They posted some spam articles.

I've tidied up, and added reCAPTCHA to the site when you sign up, or create a new page.

The internet is just full of d*****bags isn't it.

That's good news. Well done for keeping on with it.

Did the spammers beat you? Looks like it's down at the moment.

It's up for me...

We haven't had a spambot join at 010x this morning, so I think I won.
