Thanks, Jong!

Anyone who sees this kind of spam can either do like Jong here did, and post a note in the Help section, or send me a PM, or send me an E-mail.

I've seen a lot of posts like this on various forums here lately.  Guess somebody developed something new to get through the regular filters just so they could put up more adds that nobody will click through.

Yeah, I wonder how these spam sites get out site address. I know some game sites get their addresses given to spammers by pissed off users, but I wonder if someone is giving our address to the spammers. Maybe someone from the big purple cesspool?

They're automated bots, nothing you should be paranoid about. They use everything from search engines to your own bookmarks to find targets.

Every site i frequent seems to be having a problem in the last week or so with spammers. The last thing i expect to see on BI's WFRP boards is a "Big tit film" thread. They get everywhere...

I moderate a couple of sub-forae at RPGHost and Lord has been spamming the same stuff there for months - I ban his userid, he comes back with another a few weeks later. Almost definately the same guy posting on RPGNet too. I got his IP & providers range and Pundit is going to block that entire subnet from accessing RPGSite. I've forwarded the same info to RPGHost and RPGNet in the past, but they cant be arsed to do anything about it.

Yep. First time I checked it was a cybercafe, although the last IP used doesnt resolve to anything right now.

Post by: RPGPundit on December 01, 2006, 12:43:23 AM
The IP range has been banned. Here's hoping we didn't have any real fans over in Lagos... sure, it sounds improbable but consider that at least four of our users (one of whom is an Admin) are from Uruguay... :p

Sorry for the necro, but it doesn't seem important enough to open a new thread.

Over the last days I noticed in "Who's online" this (http://www.therpgsite.com/forums/member.php?u=3166), this (http://www.therpgsite.com/forums/member.php?u=3161) and this (http://www.therpgsite.com/forums/member.php?u=3179) account doing nothing but logging in, and the homepage-URLs in their profiles are a.) identic and b.) don't look like something a sane person should click.
