Ma.gnolia Blog: A Dirty Shame
“The thumbnail numbers of a sample of the past 3 months show that almost 80% of the actually-used new account created on Ma.gnolia were created by spammers. That means for every one real member that joined, about 4 spammers or their bots created an account.” Holy carp!
