What's with all the Censored: Inappropriate topics?

How do I miss them. What are people writing that's so bad it gets censored?

HTFU? Why not!

I can guess what these are, but I'd only be guessing... so I won't.

But... it sounds like you stepped into a bunch of these. And I can't find any. Nosey me is wondering where they are? :-)

Usually they are just spam disguised as a running related topic.

Runners run.

ahhh gotcha.

I saw one in the health forum and I think some other ones in random places. Here I thought I was missing something tantalizing!

Nah, mikey's your man. Usually spam topics, sometimes started up by bots. The interesting thing is that before starting up the real spam, a new fake-person-account may get a few almost normal looking posts so that the spammer can ensure that everything is working properly. The deal is that "almost normal" is not normal and these can sometimes get spotted.

Your moderators work hard for the money.

Spam and RunningAhead

I'm running somewhere tomorrow. It's going to be beautiful. I can't wait.
