Find Care & Housing
I closed my account and had to set up a new one and it still gave me problems. Today I come on and it lets me login with my deleted account info. I guess no one is minding the store.

I have been locked out for about a week. Attempts to log in were met with
SPAM CONTENT
errors.

Attempts to change password were successful. Then when I tried to log in, the error message read
User account name and password do not match.

I have been emailing the moderator, who has been manually clearing my account.

Anyway, I am now logged in on my PC. Attempts to log in on my phone, using the same name and password, are Spam Content and access is denied,.

I would love an update from admins, as well. What ARE we to do when we find the site infested?
Should we try to report each spam?
Should we allow you only to monitor the site, and suppose that you are daily on this?
We now have few new questions, many old, and a site that is pretty clearly infected.
Would love some ideas?

I recommend just ignoring the spam posts. If the site isn't monitored appropriately after these recent hacks it never will be, and commenting to report just keeps the spam in circulation.

That makes sense, cwillie. It DOES keep it in circulation.
After my going on AC this a.m. and first finding no new questions, just the-bots-are-back?
Then finding one sentence questions such as "I can't clean my mother after a bowel movement".
Then finding us entering a new era of religious warfare?

I just need my month off.
Clearly, I do.

See y'all in a month.
I think.

cw - makes sense. Report if you like but don't keep a running conversation about them. Old posts can be addressed anyway and new questions will come soon. Spam is best ignored, otherwise you are feeding the spammers who, like trolls, want attention.

Take a deep breath and carry on!
Use the time to clean and organize your space at home.
Get dressed and go out for a coffee, alone if necessary.

This is a good forum, and I love to hear from e v e r y b o d y.
However, I am not going to let technology steal my time.

There is enough to take care of, so I am going to do that.

See you all later.

Alva, one month is a long time. See ya back then.

Later has arrived, and I am not taking a sabbatical.
I took care of today by cancelling the most frustrating DIY project, (he has lost the ability to complete it). Then, firmly telling my husband to eat his breakfast, take his b/p meds, and rest up, and watching him do it. This happens too often now. I am sad and unqualified to be his caregiver at this stage.

Geaton,
Thank you for your comment!

Lol,
Lol.
Lol,

I have disappeared for awhile before, and did not announce it.
No one noticed I was gone, and that is okay with me.

Lylii,
The moderators have suggested we contact:
Moderator@aplaceformom
For individual help now. Most issues plaguing the site seem to be addressed, but some are still locked out.
Good luck.

Hi all,

Last week, our tech team completed work on new and improved spam filters to better protect the forum.

As many of you know, our previous spam settings unintentionally caused login and/or posting issues for some legitimate members. Those issues should now be resolved.

If you're still having trouble logging in or posting, please reach out to us directly at Moderator@aplaceformom.com so we can help.

Thank you for your patience and continued support as we work to make the forum a better experience for all.

Wow, I was locked out for almost 3 weeks and almost gave up on this site.

Report

I am uncertain if I am the only one, but I am so far this a.m. unable to post answers beyond answering two questions.
I am going to assume "it's just me", and return tomorrow. Everything has been functioning so well. If we are back at square one I may be done.
Hoping this is a fluke and is only me.

Looks like it is working for me now, though a bit "oddly" in that when I press on the "post" button it looks as though it isn't posting. There's a bit of a delay. Then the answer appears. Seems to be working, in any case. I'm on.

Frankly this seems more like a malicious attack than spam, and when somebody is determined to cause chaos they likely will find a way.

They were gone by the time I saw CWillie’s comment.
I didn’t report the individual posts. There were several.
I sent an email and posted here. Others may have sent emails as well. I didn’t see any posts that had been replied to.

@Geaton, This started for me days ago. About a week ago. I answer and I press post and the whole question just sits there. Then I got back to Forum, and when I look at the questions I see that it did indeed post my answer. I look down in the left hand corner now and can see some "fine print" that indicates it registered my response. But I do recall being really confused the first day that started for me. And it continues now daily. Not sure why.

For me, I post and it comes up in a box that appears to allow changes. But if I do change anything, it comes up as multiple posts. If I get to it quickly, I can delete and x one of the post contents, but I just don’t understand it as well!

Margaret, if you look just below your posting, this has been happening for me for some time. I am used to it now, but it is an odd response. I post the answer. It looks like I didn't. I post again and now I have TWO answers show up, duplicating what I said. Sometimes I don't even catch it to say, "sorry; repeat".

Is the site acting wonky for anyone else? The last few days it has been slow and often won't load at all.

Yes cwillie.
At first I thought it was because my phone is getting old . But it’s worse on and off than just alittle slow from my phone.

Yesterday I couldn't load the website, it just sat vacant. I tried several times, and later finally got on. I knew it was the software as I had no problems with other websites. I use a PC computer tower, and with large screen monitor :)
