The site keeps getting spammed with inappropriate links. I'm not totally sure at this point whether it's a person or a bot (although I am guessing a person since email validation is needed).

I have to keep banning them and deleting their posts, so bear with me as I try to take care of this.

Pretty obvious by their titles that you shouldn't click them.

Thanks

Oops this was partly my fault, as I did not read properly and skipped some steps when fixing a problem which the forum software company explained how to fix.

I now fixed it. Hopefully that will take care of it, but there are probably 50 accounts on here which were created during that time so some of them may log back in and do the same thing and I will ban them all when it happens.

ok, I just took the time to go through and ban all 74 accounts which were registered in the past 24 hours or so.

If I amde a mistake and you're a legitimate member, you can contact me about it. Only a couple usernames were remotely close to real names, so I doubt I banned anyone who shouldn't be.

Normally I wait for them to post a bad link before banning them, but since it was obvious what was going on, I took care of everyone. I didn't want to have porn links show up here, so I went to some trouble for the benefit of those viewing the forums.

I am hoping it's all taken care of now with the new security changes and also the banning of those who got through via the exploit.

The morons group is now big.

Thanks

edit: wow some had porn on their profiles too so I ended up taking a long time to get rid of their links and pictures. I didn't want to delete the accounts totally becuase I want to use them to raise the member count where it gets something out of their stupidity. I guess it was bots, but I don't know how they then validated and updated their profile.

I'd visit more frequently if this place was allowed to be a bit more "Saucy" if ya know what I mean.
