Yeah, seeing the same here. Usually means some bot swarm found a fresh hole or the signup form got a little too easy again. If it’s sudden sudden, I’d check the usual junk: registration captcha, email verification, and whether the spam posts are all coming from the same pattern/IP range. Sometimes it’s just a wave and not even “your forum” specifically.
