Story Arc Spam

[aaronmoish]

When creating new Story Arcs, I do a search for that arc to see if there are already any with the same name. Lately, I'm finding a LOT of Story Arcs that were created presumably by spambots (mostly advertising purses, of all things). For most searches, its only been one or two, so I just reused them, but this is what I found when I searched for "Black Out" (spam entries in bold):

Clearly there may be many more. Is there any way for a moderator to find these in an easier fashion and delete them rather than meticulously look through the master list of Story Arcs? Should we report them for deletion or just rename/reuse them as we come across them?

Yeesh, only been at it for 5 minutes and I've already found hundreds. All made in the last two months.

[aaronmoish]

Yeah, and we thought message board spam was bad...

To answer your original question Chris maybe able to grab all of those in one go, but otherwise it would be a one at time removal.

[mikebo]

I e-mailed Chris my results. Found around 160 examples.

I think these are all taken care of. Please let me know if you run into anymore like that.
