Ok, mods, I know you've got lives to lead...but...
I check this forum just about everyday. And it seems, every day, that a new spambot makes its way on. hell, I was just browsing and and another dirty spambot posted right in front of me, the bastard!
I've seen these things go several days and several mod/admin logins without being cleared, and frankly, I'm a little sick of it. If you guys want me or someone else to help out the mod team, i'd appreciate it. I can log the IP in the spam post, mark it as unblocked, and delete the bastard's post.
Just some food for thought.
Crikey!

ROFL
Crikey! She's a beaut! Look at this bad boy! 'got Nudie pics roight on the front page! CrikeyOOH! Watch it...she's a little angry sometimes!
God Bless that man...
in my opinion the spam bot messages are neither hard to spot nor to ignore so i don't think it's such a big deal...
I don't always have time to take care of the mess :(
As admin, its more than just deleting a post. I have to ban the user and investigate if the ip is from an ISP that already has had a spampost, so I can ban the entire range.
Besides of that, Only Sam_Zen and I seem to care the battle against the spambots :(
LP, I'm gonna recommend you re-read my entire first post...and, hypothetically, If I send you an IP, wouldn't you be able to determine it's ISP? Or, If I pointed out a user to you, you should be able to read it's IP, right? I mod a forum and as a mod I can read the ISP of a user.
wonderful. Another post right in front of me. What is up with these guys recently? And blimey, I saw that one you closed LP! Crafty SOB.

I have read your post carefully. There's just more to it than this... I have to think about it.
Understandable. You're the admin, after all!

Thank god yeah...
It would be strange if I had to think about it while I wasn't the admin right? :nuts:
That would be an interesting situation.
