Something needs to be done about the spam - Addam - 06-13-2013 02:18 AM
Seriously, it is completely ruining this forum.
I don't know the ins and outs of bot prevention, but at the very least, couldn't a regular user be given Mod status so they can handle the deletion of the current spam posts?
I'll do it if no one else wants to, but I'm sure it is preventing people from becoming active on the forum. Look at everyone who introduced themselves to the forum and then disappeared.

I agree. This is intolerable.
As an aside - kitchen spam? Who does that? I mean, who falls for it?
RE: Something needs to be done about the spam - Addam - 06-24-2013 06:59 AM
I have no idea.
But the lack of response from the mods is intolerable as well. Ruining the forum.

Hell's kitchen probably ;-)
The post and users have been deleted, sorry for the mess.
We would have to move to another forum platform to avoid this
MyBB seems to be really prone to hackers...
Well I will investigate for other antispam modules

Given how quickly it returned, maybe a better forum platform would be the best solution.
Perhaps the same model as the french forum?

Glad to see something changed in my absence. Looks much better today.

I'll also do my part in trying to keep things clean!
