As a somewhat odd spin off but a very public face of joomla off property,
Why is nothing being done about the reported spammers, or even a new member moderation.
There are several members actually leaving due to it. that goes way beyond the 2just ignore it" attitude.
What has happened to the linkedin group owners/managers?

Which LinkedIn groups are you talking about?

I am "manager" at two LinkedIn groups and try to moderate (remove spam/spammers & add new members) about once a month:
Joomla CMS http://www.linkedin.com/groups/Joomla-CMS-80142/about
Joomla! http://www.linkedin.com/groups/Joomla-47477/about

start here! http://linkd.in/LE2WM4 http://linkd.in/KaFJms all these have beenmoved to the jobs from the main page - 99.9% totally off topic
http://www.linkedin.com/groups?careerDi ... &gid=80142
http://www.linkedin.com/groups?careerDi ... &gid=52867
etc

once a month is unfortunately inadequate for the turn around at those groups. even PJO bans abt 15 a week

here is another sample of spam being posted into discussions with a response by a group member complaining about lack of moderation
