M2 Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 For some reasons the spammers are getting through again. I've deleted two Viagro threads in the past two days. I've been suspending their accounts for 1000 days, as I am not sure how or if I can delete them. If I can, could someone please instruct me how; otherwise 'scieshyInseno' needs to be deleted. Cheers! M2
Baseops.Net Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 I deleted the last several - I think deleting may be an Admin-only function... Thanks for helping to clean up this place.
Baseops.Net Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 M2 & All, New security updates have been installed specific to SPAM-bots. Let me know if the problem rears its ugly head again.

I deleted the links from both posts, and ddddyyyy and wickedrobert need to be deleted by an Admin. I think the latter is a spammer as well, as if he really had a question about H1N1 masks, he would have not posted it in the 'What Are My Chances?' section. Thanks for catching them and letting us know! Cheers! M2

'He'? It is a piece of computer software posting these messages; it is not a real person.

Now they have the ability to respond to posts (not just a quote, but using the original poster's name) with their info?

Yeah, I would be impressed if the spambots have adapted themselves to that level of sophistication! Or does Steve know something we don't?!? Cheers! M2

M2, my apologies for insulting your knowledge of the interweb.
