It's a purposeful tactic by people who are wanting to get these threads shut down, they are hoping mods will just get fed up and ban all CBTS threads. They had a thread going in the catalog last night talking about what they were doing while they were doing it (Nazi spam, gore, off-topic spam, reporting to mods on forums and through IRC, spamming CBTS threads, ect).
Y'know, basically doing all the things they accuse this thread of being.
