I agree, this is absolutely awful. I know a few of the ladies here were working on ways of preventing this from happening. I know Joe use to be able to close a thread. Perhaps we can start closing old threads after a certain amount of time has passed. I know other websites do this - for example all threads automatically close after 90 days. They are still searchable and available but no one can add to it after that. I don't know if this solution would work for everyone though since sometimes we like to add new information to old threads. Just an idea. It is truly awful when a spammer brings up an old and painful thread. Shame on them is right!
