January 13, 201214 yr comment_100141 Working on it. Had to prune 6 of them this morning. Yuck. Guys, if you see a spammer, please post it in this thread, don't report the post, with as many as we're getting hit with right now it will fill my email box up if they all get reported. Report
January 15, 201214 yr comment_100225 If any admin other than me removes one, please make sure you both ban the screenname and the IP address. If you don't know how to do that, then alert me here and I'll take care of it. Report
January 15, 201214 yr comment_100226 Ok Balta, I banned 2 last night but didnt ban their ip addresses but Ill do that from now on. Report
January 15, 201214 yr comment_100230 Ya I almost think we should go back to having to manually approve new members Report
January 15, 201214 yr comment_100231 Ya I almost think we should go back to having to manually approve new members I'd really dislike having to do that, but I'll give this spammer surge a few days and if it doesn't stop then we'll take that step. Report
January 17, 201214 yr comment_100349 So, I finally gave up and just switched all approvals to admin-only and pretty much haven't approved anyone for 2 days, and that involved pruning 40-50 applicants. Should anyone real actually read this message and want to apply, hopefully they'll try it a couple times. Report
