spam artists have too much time on their hands

Post by dozer »

The blog has had on-going problems with spam from spambots which automatically spew spam all across cyber space. You know the types; on-line casino and various sexual enhancement medications. I pretty much thought the forum was immune, but this morning a couple of spammers left their mark.

One apparently manually registered and then manually? posted a couple of comments. I've banned that user. Another one hit a category which still allowed guest access.

I mention it since some of the users noticed missing posts.

Please alert me by PM or email if you see posts which are clearly spam. These had the halmark of a generic comment 'I agree with that' with links to the casino or other sites

I saw this again and just went through and deleted a bunch of posts. Stay on top of it with me and PM or email me if you see spam out there.
