You're right there was quite a bit of spam. Most of that stuff was out of my hands, especially the questions (Alot of them I didn't even answer). Roary and I sifted through the entire thing and there were 300+ posts of mine that didn't go against any posting rules at all. It was just a matter of tediously sifting through and removing the ones that didn't belong. From a first impression there was a huge amount of spam, when that thread kicked off it got a lot of low ball offers, you're not making any of that up at all.
I also wanted to add: When i seen that the contents of all posts were removed, I actually was very surprised. I wasn't infracted for any spamming or notified about it either, so it puzzled me and I just wanted to ask.
