I have deleted all of the Home Page profile fields. There were 1200 users with a custom field. On a page of 50, over half were spam.
Unfortunately, there's no easy way to remove older spam users until they can be pruned for inactivity/low post count. (I'm going to make this a monthly habit until we've passed the 1 year new staff threshold.) I don't want users subjected to coming across various forms of spam.
Please accept my apologies and feel free to add your homepages back.
Again, if you stumble across any spam I encourage you to use the report button. If you come across a user that has a spam signature, please PM a member of the staff so that it can be dealt with.
As always, thank you for your time.
