site spammersFollow

I dont see an auto ban working, maybe a auto suspend afterso many post in a time frame. with a flag for mods to look at post quality. Then the first star could flag your account for unlimited posting.

Limiting post counts won't work with the current spammer. He has made 5 accounts in the last 3 hours, posted 1-6 times per account and has ruined the top half of the page.

THey seem to be using a script to do the actual posting, but are triggering it manually, and they are shifting their thread targets. We'll see if that slows them down. if it works, i'll do the rest of the ones they ahve been hitting. Feel free to recreat any locked threads that you think would be useful.

which would take all of a few minutes for them to fix their bots, if that long.

Well, looks like wer eat about 24 hours now without a spam. I've seen them up there twice, but I don't think they figured out what happened, and i don't want to give them any ideas, so we'll leave it at that. Next weekend will be the real test.

And if you think its bad in here! How about in game the fact that plat sellers send you personal tells. These guys are just ruthless and never ending.

Well, it's been several days now. I think this is working. i have not seen them up there recently. This weekend will still be key, but I am cautiously optomistic.

Bummer.

OK, the forum should be somewhat close to the pre today spam state now, if any of the threads that are missing need to be recreated, let me know wheich ones and I can bring them back long enough for you to copy whatever you need.

*sigh...the scum are back.

http://amour001.dns.la/ is just a DNS redirector to mmorpg-shop(.tld) which appears to already be disallowed by the boards. Now it seems to be a matter of playing whack-a-mole with the different redirectors they will now use, like above.
