Detecting spam

[Jon]

When you get a moment, I encourage you to read this thread: How to identify spam

It is my heuristic developed from over 20 years of spotting these spammers.

I have never seen History option?

It must be a mod only option. It basically lets you see previous versions of a post if it has been edited. Spammers often do a post without a link or site name, but then go back later to drop those in.
