Rabidweezil Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Ok, so someone wastes their time mucking up a forum with hundreds of links to drugs. My questions is, after making us all deal with that, who in their right mind would go ahead and place an order to the very place the spammed the hell out of our forum?

CoreyD Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 It's a spambot that somehow got through the cracks. Annoying though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rabidweezil Posted January 17, 2013 Author Share Posted January 17, 2013 Dangard, I wasn't complaining about the spam as much as questioning the methods of spammers. Several years ago my browser was infected by adware which kept redirecting me to an online casino. It was a bitch to remove. Anyways, the whole time I was thinking, do they really expect me to now spend money at this site they are forcing me to visit? I just don't see the effectiveness of tactics like that, or like the spambot that hit this site this morning. "Wow, look at all those great drug deals that are clogging the forum! I think I'll go shop there now!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dangard Ace Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Remember all those "Click me!" spam ads? People clicked them. Alright I think we got all the spammers and "buy me maybe drug" threads. Use the report button if you see any we missed. Damned spammers. Made me miss the advanced tickets sale start time.

Roy Focker Posted January 17, 2013 Share Posted January 17, 2013 Spammer was using a Ukraine IP and a email from Montenegro. Everyone please write letters to those countries for supporting online terrorism. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
