Spammers on Forumosa

Why not combine it with that blufr thingy? You can’t post unless you know who the first Guatemalan to bat 100 in the world cup was!

Touch-sensitive pads that read fingerprints and blood-flow.

More sex bots. Come on… some fix has to be available.

What if newly registered users had a limit of 2 posts in the first 24 hours? Would that help catch it?

Wouldn’t help much for anyone signing up–or smurfing for privacy reasons–with urgent concerns.

I think it’s pretty annoying … the last one I cought/reported to the admins yesterday spammed in a zillion threads …

Is there a “report user” function, like squeal ignore and quote, to be found on these boards? Some spammer under the name of ‘Encetard61’ is at it again (yes I am aware I could PM a mod but something like a report button would be easier :p)

I still think the suggestion I made earlier in this thread should defeat the purpose for spammers to spam here.

Thanks MC for your input, and your PM to me just now as well. Yes, you can hit SQUEAL (look to the upper right corner of the post in question), which functions as the report button you refer to to notify the admins – they are the only ones currently with the power to wipe out all the spammer’s posts, board-wide, and to ban the bastard as well. Mods can kill the posts which fall within their own individual fora only.

I’ve just created a team of “supermods” - moderators with double “O” status in all the forums. They’re licensed to kill! Go get those spam-bots!

Got 'em ! :sunglasses:

I’ve been brainstorming a bit about how to stop the flood of spam as of late, and came up with two more feasible idea’s:

-Restrict posting rights of new users so they can only post in temp forum until some conditions, like post count or minimum amount of time registered ,are met and the new user can then request a mod for granting him/her posting privileges to the rest of the forum.
-When signing up for a new account no free mail providers will be accepted (like Hotmail GMail Yahoo ect.) The big idea behind this restriction is that the spammer will eventually run out of mail addresses to use (unless he has a mail server of his own but this is easily fixed by blacklisting his domain) For this to work the email addresses used to register the account with should be kept in the database when spammer user accounts are being deleted. (this one should be fairly simple to implement)

Edit: I just read the opening post of this thread (at some point this topic has been merged).

Well I dunno much about Taiwanese legislation but I doubt it though, if this person is spamming with a non-spoofed IP address a f.com admin could look up this wankers ISP and file a complaint and keep your fingers crossed because it heavily depends on what policies that ISP have on spamming. Some ISP’s, here in The Netherlands, take it very seriously and cut off the spammers internet while others don’t give sh*t… I just realized we can also file a bunch of complaints to the provider hosting the spammers website and again it’s all up to the provider.

Edit2: You mods been too thorough, I can’t even find one spam url anymore to do a whois on :raspberry:

Ah… right! I was already wondering what the difference was between squeal and ignore but that was because I kept misreading squeal as squelch :homer: doh

And it’s hosted on this IP address 58.65.233.145 by provider HostFresh in Hong Kong so it seems:

Edit:
At one of the many sexually suggestive urls, which are being spammed on this forum, like: http:// paris-hilton-sucking.info / blog / news / 52919
Once you visit that page the website will prompt you to download a new ‘videocodec’ called accessvid1163.exe which is in fact a trojan called Trojan.Win32.DNSChanger.hk viruslist.com/en/viruses/enc … sid=146019
I still have the as evidence trojan, safely compressed in rar format to prevent accidents, in case the spammer takes the website down anytime soon. PM me if you need it. Anyway I gathered all the info and as you can see it’s against the hosting providers acceptable use policy down below, whats left now is for someone to compile this into a formal complaint and send it to abuse@hostfresh.com. It’s 01:47 in the morning here so Im off to bed.

Cruise missiles are on the way.

So you nuking Brussels huh? Ceevee won’t be too happy about that :Europe:

I oppose the death penalty, but I’d gladly make an exception for spammers. Especially if the punishment is cruel and unusual.

The info is wrong … jilly Senders? that’s not a real name … Brussels is in province de Namur? Doubt that, Brussels city is an autonumous region, and is in Brabant province … postal code is not that of Brussels … phone number is not registered …

Silli Jenders?
