Its very sad to see this BLOG fall apart.

This college BLOG used to get a lot of eyeballs and the content was sticky and interesting.

Now for whatever reason, it's falling apart. There is a lot of spam and lackluster interest from the HS community. Why do you think CV is letting this fall by the wayside???? I'd like to help but it seems futile.

PLEASE ANSWER THE POLL if you think I'm right or wrong. thanks

The spam posts are largely due to the inefficiency of moderator bots.

@CameronBameron, there's been so much spam on here recently that actual questions, polls, and advice is being pushed to the bottom of the page. :(

Even in the few months I've been on here it seems like the engagement has gone down. A lot more unanswered questions recently.

It is getting ridiculous. I find this blog very helpful for college questions but the bots are getting on my nerves. The last spam from a couple of hours ago with that number or whatever was the last straw for me. CV needs a system that helps prevent bots from creating accounts or to create a way in which they can identify if a bot account is made. I don't want this affecting the site any longer.
