Title: Spammers
Post by: Diane on August 09, 2006, 04:39:18 am
Markus, Luth, and Eresh...   why aren't you guys deleting these posts/posters?  They are obvious spammers.   :ninja: :disgust:

Mr. Green (--->  :ph34r:) is ready to kick their butts.

I agree. I'm really angry to see all this on our forum.  :verymad:

Hi there,

when I see real spam - the stupid kind, not the NTSMS-High-Quality-Spam - I delete it. But admittedly I could hardly drop in the last week or so, that's why it was all left to poor Luth for that while. :(

But I'll keep my eyes open.

Cheers!

Markus

Thank you, oh High Priest! :bow: We only said:  :pop: "LEPACA MARKUS!"  :pop: and the spam is gone!

Nah, seriously: Praise the one who did most of the work with this new forum. :bow: Praise our incomparable Queen! :bow:

Like now... I've just deleted another spam-post and banned the user. Why they like to spam our crazy forum with viagra and such?  :bawl:

Thank you, Luthy! I can't stand these... I don't have an enough bad word. God save our Queen!  :bow:

They seem drug dealers to me, searching brand new customers on our forum. But we drink  :cheers: (only the persons older than 18) Even Aluqak wouldn't eat that stuff.

And we had another spam last night...  grrr.    :ninja:     But gone this morning.    :yeha:.    Someone is putting spam in the Therion forum, too.  (but gone this morning).  This is getting out of hand.   :disgust:

Erm... I'm in shock, really. I got today this... horrible PM, by the "Colin Farrel" username... geez. I wonder if I'm the only one?  :blink: Seriously, it was horrendous.

 :blink: This morning I've deleted 4 spam posts from this (now banned) user: he spammed even the Chat section!!!

Can you re-send me this PM, if you haven't deleted it yet?

It seems spammers are growing in resistance and they're increasing their attack!
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Elizabeth on September 23, 2006, 09:56:53 am
I've already deleted the PM, but I can forward you the e-mail notification: the whole message is there as well.

But TRUST ME, you do not, I repeat, you DO NOT, want to see that PM  :sick: :pock: :bye: :disgust:
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Luth on September 23, 2006, 09:59:31 am
If someone is sending this type of PMs to my forum members, I want to know against what kind of people I'm fighting against  :ninja:
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Lucy on September 23, 2006, 09:59:48 am
Hi,

I've just found that  :) poor guy  :lol3:
So if you want it, tell me so I can send it, then I want to destroy it  :fish:
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Luth on September 23, 2006, 10:01:04 am
Please, forward me the PM. After that, I'll make a magical black ritual against its writter  :pop:
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Lucy on September 23, 2006, 10:05:26 am
Sent it. Do you have it?  :shifty:
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Luth on September 23, 2006, 10:13:46 am
Yes, I have it. I can take it in two ways:

-Curse this damned spammer who posts thousands of crappy posts in the forum, and wish him the worst death in the universe after being tortured by my best agents.  :ninja:

-Laugh a lot. Photoshop makes miracles, didn't you know it?  :lol3:

But seriously talking... I wish it won't happen again. Spam is ever something to hate, but "only" spam the forum with links and buying drugs requests is an innocent way to spam comparing with that. Our users have to feel save of this shitty crap in their inboxes. Not to mention someone can feel bad for it (I can only laugh, but there're below 18 here, and this is directly illegal). I don't know if I can do anything against it, but I promise I'll study if we can stop this happening again. Even if l have to set harder restrictions to new members.

I would be totally agree.

One more thing, maybe it helps you: the funny spam pm was sent to Enigma757.
Now I go to cut it off!  :wicking:

I'm underaged, Luthy, and I was one of the recipients  :mad3:  :tongue: Curse him! He's not only being illegal, but also ...  :sick:

I forwarded the notification to both your adresses, so you migh want to get rid of it.
Title: Re: Spammers

You can find it in the members list, and I don't understand either.
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Luth on September 23, 2006, 10:33:27 am
Yes, Lucy, I know you're underaged... although it can offend people of all ages, believe me. Only way to take it by the good side (the only one good side it exists) is laughing a lot of it (Photoshop miracles, as I said  :lol3: ).

We'll inform all of you of Admins decision about this particular case  :ninja:

Perhaps he's one of the members who admins had deleted so fast that they had time only to spam... and die!  :innocent:

Erm... I'm the underaged, Luthy. I don't think Lucy is too. She's married and works in a bank, after all  :insane:

And I know that's a piece of PS miracle, but that doesn't mean it has to be a miracle... for me :D

What does "hor" mean, oh High Priest?  :innocent:

Only a little mistake when writting the name... not so terrible  :insane:

Hi Liv,

I'm a little astounded that you don't know that "hor" (or better spelled "H.O.R") stands for "Hers, Our Royalty's".

Cheers!

There is a lot of spammers recently... Including those selling drugs to get less weight, this is becoming a problem. Most of the spam is found in the Announcments section, I believe that only trusted members should have access to this. We should make something like asking a really hard question only a true metalhead could answer along with the confirmation e-mail, if that is possible.
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Luth on September 23, 2006, 02:35:17 pm
We have changed the way to register... when changes will be definitive, admins will officially announce them.

WAR TO SPAMMERS!!!!!  :ninja:

Post by: Sirius13 on September 23, 2006, 04:47:40 pm
Yeh, you have to be vigilant!

I looked on the Spiritual Beggars' forum the other day and it was just thousands of pages of spam.  Spam answered with spam, spam topics answered by spam bots.  It was quite bizarre, a myriad of spam posts made up this cyber-spam wasteland with just this one lonely human observer....    :insane:
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Diane on September 23, 2006, 05:48:20 pm
Is it just the females receiving those porn PM's?  I also got the Colin Farrell one.  Whoever sent those PM's is a pig...  and probably proud of it.  It's a shame someone is putting those pictures in the PM's.  We live in a screwed up society thanks to people... I mean animals like that.   They are sick and it's the only way they can get some attention.  Hang the bastard by his photoshopped balls, I say!

Hey Eve!
I've got the message too. After reading this whole topic I did n't bother to open it and just thrash it right away. :bye:
May be we should close the circle and only accept new members recommended by new members? :unsure:

I agree.  The whole point is to have a section of the NTSMS that only a certain amount of people can see and participate in.  If too many people are in it, there doesn't seem to be a point anymore.   Some are in the inner circle, yet never post there.  To me, if you want to be a part of a group, then they should be contributing to the group.  I'm just being more careful about what I post.

I also got that PM, after seeing the topic, I just deleted it right away, I ddin't even bother to open it.
Now, about the new registration, how is it going to work? (Or how is it suggested to work?)
Title: Re: Spammers
Post by: Markus on October 08, 2006, 03:39:44 pm
By the way, folks,

have you noticed that the spammers usually besmirch the section "Announcements"? As if that section was made for advertising... I wonder where they would go if we didn't have such a section. Luckily we won't find out, because there are hardly any spammers left: The new registration policy (see "About NTSMS") seems to baffle their ugly work. Every now and then a spammer or two will cheat their way through our controls, but as soon as they start the spamming they get deleted as usually.

Cheers!

Markus

Hehe, just read this and thought I'd share it - it's a long read but well worth the effort.  This guy actually got $3 out of an email scammer (who he then labelled 'meta-stupid').  It's old, so sorry if you've already seen it!

The basic principal is 'scam-baiting' - turning the tables on scammers and wasting their time and effort.  I like it!  :biggrin:

Hi Rick,

admittedly I found the text too long to read it all, especially because the spammers part is virtually illegible, being written all in capitals. But I do love the way the spambuster imitates the spammer's style, and I do love the passage that says "You're so incredibly stupid" in many, many funny ways. :roll:

Thanks for sharing and cheers!
