06 Maestro -> Spam Bots (5/2/2009 5:41:56 PM)

Has anyone else notice the new spam-seems more intelligent with a little sentence or two that is somewhat connected to the thread? I seen several of these in the last week.

I really don't like the swirly letter test some sites use for registration, but perhaps its time matrix considers using those.

We sell several varieties of spam at my new website............ spam spam spam... [sm=00000968.gif]

I must confess i've read thought half of that post before realizing is was a damned bot! [:D]

By the way, should us (users) report this kind of spam posts to the forums admins?
I've tried to report this one, but it seems "Spam" isn't a valid reporting reason and i can't send the report [&:]

Cheers

Yep Arsan-that's what I'm talking about. It seems those things are getting smarter. Look how long it took to get that first response to my initial post. Interesting that there is not link in it-so it is a vindictive SB-something I have not seen before.



Arsan -> RE: Spam Bots (5/2/2009 7:28:58 PM)

Mmm... maybe Nighteyes is real guy with a curious sense of humor [:D]
Or a real bot with a curious sense of humor [X(]
Say something to us Nighteyes! [:'(] are you a guy, a gal, a bot??

I think soon we'll need professional Blade Runner help to tell replicants and real forum members apart [:D]

06 Maestro -> RE: Spam Bots (5/4/2009 9:41:40 PM)

I just saw 3 more in one forum (WW1) made today-this is getting bad.

Time for the obstructed letters registration test.



06 Maestro -> RE: Spam Bots (5/4/2009 9:53:04 PM)

I also just came across this little exchange in the Napoleon at War support thread. If this garbage is wasting the time of Matrix staff, it is getting out of hand. The Bot quoted a legit member (out of context and place in thread).

I don't exactly understand this post. According to this account, you have three posts total and I don't see a previous one in this thread or forum.
