I appreciate the hard work you folks do thats why Dfans is my most trusted source for Diablo info. I have just noticed the spammers a lot more recently.
One reason for that might've been simply the Christmas break... when spending time with your friends and family you can't really moderate at the same time, so the spammers had an advantage over the holidays ;-) That's why some of the topics weren't deleted as fast as usual. Back to business now, though, so it's game over again.
