Mark Stilson Posted March 3, 2011 Report Share Posted March 3, 2011 Got my self three new pet spammer bots at the forum I mod. Banned them a while back and I have been doing some clean up on the users. Getting rid of spammers and link dumpers from the user list. I deleted them a few days back and they re-registered. New email addresses, different email servers, same name. Ban them and their happy. They visit every once and a while. There are a couple more like it. Just these come back often. BTW for the mods and admin of this forum. It would surprise you how much work is involved in keeping one going. We don't have an outside spam checking service but I can tell you there are a lot of name/email/ip address shifting spammers. One of the major spam hubs has 3,853 other domains. So it could be coming from any of those addresses. A major task in keeping forums clean. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
