Here's a little additional information on The Questions Network (and AQ):

There are 60 (yes, sixty) deleted posts, spam & comments on spam, between this & the last one w/ useful content. The way my system is set up, that's 7 screensfull -- a lot of <PageUp> & <PageDown> to move between them.

Please consider removing the visual clutter by either hard deleting them or moving them to their own thread where they don't harm this one. Thanks.

Keep in mind that only mods see soft deleted posts. We typically never hard delete content here at LQ, but it's possible we'll look into making an exception for this recent spam mass attack.

I didn't know that.

Indeed, if I delete all LQ cookies in Firefox, I don't see the deleted spam. Of course I do see the ads.

It's good to know that I am not seeing what a regular user sees. So my concern shifts user convenience to mod team convenience. If it's not too much trouble, I think that removing the huge amount of residual clutter from the recent attack might improve our ability to moderate the affected threads.
