M2 Posted October 4, 2008 Share 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!

Baseops.Net Posted October 4, 2008 Share 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'He'? It is a piece of computer software posting these messages; it is not a real person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toro Posted June 17, 2009 Share Posted June 17, 2009 'He'? It is a piece of computer software posting these messages; it is not a real person. They're removed, but do you think so? Now they have the ability to respond to posts (not just a quote, but using the original poster's name) with their info? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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!
