KWSN Orbiting Fortress

KWSN imcrazynow · Posted: Sun May 31, 2009 6:55 pm Post subject: Something has to be done!

Spammers are taking over the outhouse! Can we accept no new members there for now, ban the spammers that are using it now after logging their IP address and blocking it. Make it so anyone posting on that forum must be registered here and be a member of the KWSN before having access to the outhouse. This way we can at least screen some of the a-holes out.
Sorry if I seem to be rambling a bit but spamming really does piss me off. #Mad

The whole damn forum has been taken over. We really need to do something.

The outhouse is our home away from home. Do we really want it to look and smell like an outhouse? Rolling Eyes

Send Sir Baldy a PM and email and ask him to close it to new members.

I don't go over there because of that crap.

Hi Farty.

Maybe we should implement RECAPTCHA in the signup process - It's really simple to do.

Ni!

Maybe just a box asking the potential poster to type "I am a Loonie".

But we may have problems with the spelling. Laughing

We would have to agree on the correct spelling of looney.

Sir Baldy gave Sir Furry and I the ability to delete and ban spammers over at the Outhouse... It has to be done every day but we're doing the best we can! Just try to ignore them because as soon as one of us notices, they're gone!

The Outhouse is clean again, for the moment. Someone provided a large supply of TP for us too.

Some of the permission on the Outhouse are weird. My comments to the Janitor's closet are moderated, but anyone can post in the other forums.
