AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH:eek::eek::eek::eek:

[carolupus]

this is horrible!
how many people who can do anything against that (mods/admins) are here anyway?

[alucard]

ok ...i'm tired and sick of this spam
people are also reciveing stars without deserving them (including me)

i don't know how but there must be a way to ''cure'' this.
it's really annoying.

[ukanfoff]

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

It appears spambots have found us. We need to set up a verification thing when you register. Most sites do it now, some of them are very good, and even bots can't figure them out.

If you need help with moderation, give me a shout!

I'll point davi to this thread, its getting well out of hand

[davi]

I apologize for the amount of spam. I'm spread a little thin trying to admin both forums and the "email registration" was turned off temporarily to a fix a different problem, but it's re instated now.

[Grumbledook]

cheers big man

[John.D]

Just shows that it's necessary!

[ukanfoff]

[Grumbledook]

Please, if you see a post that could be Spam, report it by clicking the white triangle with the black exclamation mark in it that is on the post in question. This makes it easier to locate and delete all posts by the suspected spammer with one click. The moderators will see the spam whether or not you report it, but reporting makes it easier to locate the problem.

Also, please DO NOT reply to spam messages in any threads. It makes it harder to clean up the forum and adds to the confusion. Once the Spam posts are deleted it looks like you're talking to yourself... ;)

Many thanks to the following users for reporting Spam posts: Morbid, stine, daedicarus, UpDownTurnAround, madtea, and MLlanes. :)


Thank you. :)


Now get out there and take fotos... :D

[John.D]

It's back!!! I don't want to play Age of Conan! Go away!!!

[VenomVindicta]

I feel quite left out, i havn't had one :(

Lol. guess thats what you get for almost forgetting about you all D:

[alucard]

i can't belive what is happening with this comunity.
we have more spam posts than enything else.
is this comunity doomed??
i hope not.

[Grumbledook]

i'm working on cleaning it all up

trouble is with the software as it is atm its a pain in the backside

unfortunately it appears as we are somewhat of a black sheep over here ;[

[stine]

grumbledook to the rescue! thanks so much for deleting all those posts, it must've been a loooooot of work! much appreciated!

[Grumbledook]

yer trouble is though cause the board is using a beta version and not the gold release the spam and ban thing just nuked the posts and didn't ban them

i'll harass someone to update the software

[alucard]

off topic:
maybe we showld also harass people to start posting again.

[Crash]

The spam attack thread has spam in it, i dont know if thats funny or just sad.

[stine]

oh, man. sorry to bother you mods again, but the forum is getting killed by those spam bots. EVERY single entry on the forums' index page is spam right now and the rating system is becoming a joke since every bot gives its thread 5 stars. is there any chance that this could be handled? i know it's overwhealming, but pleeeeeeaaaase? huge pretty-please? *gives bambi eyes*
