hope this forum becomes spam free one day

hi,

how are you everyone.?

Is the "Domination for your tiny little dick" tease spam ? It just has a link to spam surveys and links to games to download.

OK, I see. Thanks. But this way, you have to react to any report including possible multiple ones from different users, which may become every tiresome in case of real spam floods. My suggestion allows you to kill a bunch of threads at a time.

And what is your suggestion?

Seeing all the SPAM is getting quite distracting. Anyone able to remove it? I've marked some of it.

I'm removing as much of it as I can find time for. Have probably deleted around 500 posts at least in the last week, unfortunately, I can't be here 24/7.

My ban hammer is bloody and gore soaked from all the spammers *chuckles*

Region bans would not help you. Spam bots are all over the place, for all you know, the bot can be hosted in Brazil and send Russian spam, along with spam on 100 other languages. And those bots are not built to last, they change their location all the time.

Really, all you can realistically do is banning accounts and deleting threads. Maybe make an authorizarion/registration system harder for bots to go through. That's it.

Googles recaptcha seems to be good at stopping spam bots: https://www.google.com/recaptcha/intro/index.html


Also looks like you could do with some extra forum moderators to delete all the spam >.<

Not a complaint at all, since I know this community is a labour of love by those who are more willing or able than many of us (including me) to take the time to help, but I would just note that of late it seems like there is way more SPAM than there used to be on the forums. I think of the 'recent posts' box right now, 1/3 are spam posts.

Thanks

Yeah, I'm afraid it's just something we have to deal with for the time being. We aren't getting nearly as much as we were a couple of months ago. We've stopped new spambots signing up, but there are dozens if not hundreds of sleeper accounts that keep popping up. It's just a matter of dealing with them when they pop up. If you see spam, please report it.
