SPAM-OCALYPSE! - Don't even open the threads

**jonathan180iq** · 11-22-2013, 01:28 PM

We are aware and we are doing everything we can. It should be very obvious what it not actually part of the forum.

Just stay out of the spam threads and carry on like normal.

We'll get this nailed down soon.

If they post within a real thread, we still need you guys to flag it.

(Use the exclamation point in the bottom right corner of the post - yours will look slightly different)

It looks like things are starting to settle down.

As you come across random posts, please report them so we can slay the stragglers. (Thanks for keeping up with this.)

We now return you to your regularly scheduled programme:

Thanks for all the hard work Jon

Looks like they sent PMs as well. Maybe there's a different topic for it, but I just deleted the IM's without reading them.

**jonathan180iq** · 11-26-2013, 11:44 PM

I wasn't aware of the PM issue. What did you receive? How many?

northsidegz · 11-27-2013, 12:53 AM

I received two PMs. One arrived on 11/25 and one on 11/26. The subject line was not English and the user names were funky, so I just deleted them right away. If we have a trash bin (I'll be honest, I never use PM), I can check to see if they are still in there and who they came from.

Yeah, copy the usernames here. I've been banning IP's usernames we'll eliminate in bulk later but I can make sure those two won't even exist for now.

northsidegz · 11-27-2013, 01:15 AM

Doesn't look like I'm able to retrieve those messages.

I have received a PM from SanSanych, sent Tue Nov 26, 2013 11:34 pm.
