It's just garbage spam, happens on all of these forums every now and then in Arabic or an Asian language usually. Mod will erase them when he gets on.

These occur more than you think. The mods are very good at getting them quickly but I tend to log in around 6:30 AM and many days there are these spam threads. I guess these bozo's think we all read Arabic.

Click on the little red triangle in the bottom left corner of a post. You'll get a pop up box you type a message in about that post, which is sent to all Mods, not just one. It's a much better way than a PM to just one Mod.
