Brenda, do you know who this guy is 'liking' all our event responses, see link: https://www.goodreads.com/event/show/...
I have contacted Goodreads Support Bette - looking at his profile, it's all spam and we aren't the only ones to cop it! Hopefully they will get rid of him soon... thanks! (Though I woke up to it myself!)
At least he's not a member of our group! But he took his time searching for things to spam! Weirdo!
Just checking - looks like he's gone! Goodreads has worked very quickly in this instance:) Excellent!
Have you got a link please Rita? All the comments are gone from the link above, that's why I thought he was gone...
OK I found him - you're right, he's still here, but all the comments are gone from our April 2014 challenge that he spammed overnight... https://www.goodreads.com/user/show/4...
Perhaps GR just deleted them??
Perhaps GR just deleted them??
I wasn't sure I would be able to, but with your help I did:) Thank you - I thought he was gone cos the comments were gone!

Just a quick question to ask whether anyone knows whether Katherine Howell's Detective Ella Marconi series were written out of order?I was looking at the different books on the series page - https://www.goodreads.com/series/5935... - and it looks like book 6 (Web of Deceit) was first published before book 2. That seems a bit strange, and I just wondered whether it was true or a typo?

Hey Brenda, if you go 'addbook/author for Vladimir Nabokov, you also get Vladimir Nabokov Speak Memory, Vladimir Nabokovir Nabokov and Vladimir Nabokov Signs andAll these should simply be the one author, can you please merge them or whatever you do? Ta:)
Hi Bette, I'm afraid that is a job for the Librarian group... they have to merge the authors:) Sorry! https://www.goodreads.com/group/show/... Just find a thread similar or start a new one...
