Conspiracy or Paranoia?

I noticed for the past half a year an increase in reports of Spam attack on Manga site forum and Manga site boards. Is it possible that these spam actually is intended to destroy these Manga scan sites or am I just a normal paranoid otaku?
mochi*mochi: "Thanks to spam and staff impersonators, we've removed our tagboard"
Fifay.net: "Due to spam attacks, comment entrances will be gradually closed."

I think this is happening everywhere, and its mainly related to ads policy... Maybe they focus a little more on Manga/Anime because its practically a given that if youre into this you usually lurk on some forums (like this one or some scanlator's forums).
Someone should make some tool to block spam or something...
Or, the NHK is invading the occidental world already 😕

I thought that was just because of readers... I mean I've seen many scanlation groups complain about how leechers spam them asking why they dropped so and so project or why such and such manga isn't being released faster.
And since the two sites you mentioned just closed, I imagine that they must be getting much more than usual.

Please try to write down your theory before you get killed. If you don't have a pen or pencil, use your blood. Every bits of advice helps.

You have been under their control for a good time already...
Who do you think was responsible of the break down of your computer that kept you away from here? They didn't want to let you discuss on a forum that wasn't under their control...
And no, you aren't free of them now that you are back... They let you get back... Since now this is under their control to!!!
