Forum Spambots

[Drak]

Posting inside jokes publicly makes you seem like a prick.
And please explain to me how I am "trolling."

Really? Judging by your posts in the thread you are clearly the prick.

I love how fast this got derailed.

Anyways, I don't think it's an issue. This is a forum full of 8 to 21 year olds that play with virtual legos. I don't think it's a good spot to advertise.

They daily sign up at my Peekarica forums. I tried everything, even captcha thing. But they still keep coming. Even my Peekarica WordPress gets spammed with a lot of comments now the last days. Damn the internet, like Badspot always say.

Did you just call him "Weh?"
Are you seriously so damn lazy that you couldn't type one extra character, so that it doesn't look like you have a mental deficiency?

You're joking right? You're seriously going mental over the letter 'r'?

So you're making a drama about people who take up space in the never ending vacuum of the internet?

Turn on e-mail validation and honeypot for SMF. For Wordpress, enable Akismet. That slows them down a lot. If you need any help let me know. Turn the Honeypot threat rate to 1 so if an IP is suspicious it won't be able to see the forum.

They are spam bots.
note the phishing websites they have links of.
report them to http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/report_phish/
works all the time.

They set their signatures as products they are advertising. Sometimes you get a poster. Those basically Lorem Ipsum links to ads.

so since my sig is my badcompany 2 stats that means i'm a spambot?

Spambot... killer2

[DrenDran]

I am the owner of an SMF forum and I can tell if a username is a spammer or not.

Uh hun, I guess it's like a fan forum type thing?

Are you being payed to sign up and post links on a forum?

Badspot had an issue with another spambot a few weeks ago making research ads.
Just report it.
