WTF
I haven't seen any of those. Perhaps all the ads about mail order brides are sent for you specifically?

Re: Sudden surge of spam
I fear additional measures are becoming necessary, I kicked around nine of them out, I go do some grocery shopping, come back, four more have popped up. I wish I could just meet the people who are responsible for these ads so I strangle them with my own hands...

Re: Sudden surge of spam
Hey, I check back here extremely often, and I have to disapprove like 6 of them each time. I just make it part of my usual routine of reading all the posts.Hionimi wrote:I fear additional measures are becoming necessary, I kicked around nine of them out, I go do some grocery shopping, come back, four more have popped up. :| I wish I could just meet the people who are responsible for these ads so I strangle them with my own hands...

That thread, at least, helps people get out their retard-urges instead of letting it leak on to the rest of the forum.Grayswandir wrote:viewtopic.php?f=1&t=16407

Maybe that "support" website that one guy made a while ago did get the attention of some people outside of this community after all.

Re: Sudden surge of spam
Give me a name and I'll try banning them. I have an option next to everyone's name in their profile called "Banning".
EDIT: tested banning on - jvkciuregg - works. This user had a post waiting approval that was just spam.
