Why is there a green hammer in the bottom right corner of some threads?

Is this something on my computer?, or does anyone else see it?

Spam Hammer?

What is this green hammer at the bottom of the screen when I click on a topic? It's not there when looking at the list of threads in a forum.

Does this happen to anyone else?

This is odd. I was just reading the thread about Bull not being on for a while. Then someone mentioned Grinder Bill not being on either. So, just for the heck of it, I clicked on the SEARCH button and typed in Grinder Bill.

When the next page popped up, down in the right hand corner of the page- it looked liked a figure of a green hammer. When I clicked on it- a page that said: spamhammer popped up. What the heck is that? Do any of you guys see this?

:dunno:

I don't know. We do seem to have wound up with a bunch of spam today from separate single post members. I just reported a couple, and did so with a couple others earlier today.

Appeared after I posted in a thread. I'm on an iPad not sure if that matters

Re: Does this happen to anyone else?

Clicking on it brings me to a link title "spam hammer". Ironically it seems like a spam site to me.

I *think* it's something Ryan has done to remove spam from the site.

Says, "Empowered by Spam Hammer" when you hover over it.

Re: Spam Hammer?

It doesn't show up in all the threads, but when it does, it annoys the heck out of me. It always seems to be sitting just in the corner of my eye-line taunting me.

Awesome! Only GJ could turn a spam ad into a SO vs HF debate. The forum never disappoints.
