  • Spam is ruining this site

    Can they be stopped or is this the end of our happy little panther nation chat board? I am not computer literate enough to know how these boards security works and what can be done.

    No kidding I really hope we win in St louis to get these guys to leave.

    We lost our 3 best players and the best recruit in the valley and we are not as good. So lets go on their message board and talk trash.

          It is the little sign with the exclamation point under your post. I decided to try it by reporting your post...jk

              That doesn't stop the contstant spam attacks though, that only reports that there is spam on the board.


              This is the only board I've noticed it on that I visit.

                Mods are deleting and banning as fast as we can... hard to keep up though. I just spent almost 20 minutes deleting stuff.

And they owned it -- all of it -- for the world to see. Like men. Like leaders. Like champions -- in a way no tournament bracket could ever define."

                    it would be unfortunate if Mudra and 96 got accidentally lumped into the "spam" category

                      They come and go. Reporting the spam is best. The main problem is they have real people do it so anything we do to stop them is going to lead to problems for real posters.

                      Some sites don't let new users post anything until they are approved. We might have to move that type of a system; I'd just prefer not to because it could lead to some delays in new visitors getting to jump right into things.

                        Why dont we just create a thread called "Official Spam Posting Thread." That will solve everything

                          Looks like we aren't the only forum being hit. http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...highlight=spam

                          I'll probably change it so that to register you have to answer some easy question.
