Eh heh...I think Rodri might have mentioned this before, but unfortunately the Mods cannot do anything about Spambot Profiles until they post (in which case we can only delete their threads and posts). Only administrators can take care of and ban SpamBots, so while posting the profiles does help us keep an eye on potential spambots...there's not much else we can do. ^^; Just a reminder. ;)

Saw something interesting just now - our 'newest member', adultcomicssitedessaa, just signed on and made it's first post...needless to say it wasn't the kind of CL-juicy material we like round here - weirdest one yet to my eyes, a list of links (loooooong list) to various sex sites and other obscene things including racist jokes.

So, please everyone keep your eyes open for a repeat of this.

Hmm.... An easy way to clear this up would be to run a MySQL query, and erase all users with 0 under the post column. I'm thinking of it right now...
Actually, the only issue that could arise would be that it wont lower the member count - if I'm correct. That can be fixed somewhere along the line too. GOTTA SPEAK WITH ERYNN! Then again, the user count might lower.

Just gotta make sure that there are no risks associated with doing this when done.

Then again, the database could just be backed up and the forum on a 1 day lockdown for evaluation.

I just experimented with deleting two spambots, hence why our number of members just dropped from 1736 to 1734.

They were;

Homeowneww
See-Her-Squirt

This was just an experiment though - anything else that gets done will be done by a consensus of the admins and mods - I think that would work best. :)

YAY!!!

And now for the worst:

SPAMBOTS RULE!!!


But seriously, we need to do something. I mean, the last five people that joined were nothing but spambots! at this rate, we'll have over 1800 more spambots in a year!

"'Peaple'? I AIN'T PEAPLE!"

What, I like that movie.

These spambots really annoy me, as if that's news.
