This is just bugging me lately and wondered if I'm alone. I dig the community contributions and those with websites to promote but, it seems like I'm having to scroll past a lot of bullshit "web find" posts lately.
Thoughts ? Mods, where you at ?

Yes, very annoyed, specially by posts that contain links to malware. As a moderator to this site, I try and bring the worst offenders to the attention of the forum's administrators, and have at time even deleted some of the more egregious posts. The responsibility ultimately belongs to the administrators to keep the bad apples away.

The spam I've come across is usually in the Misc. section of the forum, is the OP referring to the "web finds" of celeb's? I've noticed those pic threads and just wonder why post those? I mean, they aren't exactly spam, but LL has a forum section dedicated purely to celeb photos...

^^^ Yes. That's one of a couple that I see here frequently. It's all just click bait and I assume the spammers make a few bucks ? They are not here for the community.

Yep, making $$ each click. Hopefully this thread will spur some action.

I concur...before it was just maybe a popup and you can get the pic...but now it is endless popups and spam and malware.

Maybe if Patrick can't resolve it we can mention it to Phil and see what he suggests. The malware and pop-ups literally freeze my Chrome browser.
