In the last week, posts in Kanji script have been appearing in this forum. Is this what's supposed to be happening these days?

Mixing different languages together in one forum seems like a bad idea to me.

To me, these seem to be coming from a related database of "something". Either an attacker using something as a source for spam messages or some error on Yamaha owned/rented servers which is spilling out as forum posts.

BTW: best to post these in the Non-Synth Site Feedback section - since this is where the message will be eventually funneled to.

It’s happening here, so I’m complaining about it here. Trying to be the squeaky wheel...

These have been appearing in all forums. The site is periodically cleaned up, so I'm sure the admins are aware.

It would be nice if they told us what’s going on.

Hey, administrators! You’re paying enough attention to move these posts, how about giving us a little information?

We are working on the spam issue and continue to clean out the posts when they appear. Thank you for your participation in the forum and your patience.
