Title: Today's weather report
Post by: Utari Onzo on 24 Nov 2016, 01:47

Cloudy with a chance of spambot.

Please standby while we keep the site cleared up during this time. Keep using the report function to identify spam posts.

We're deleting posts and banning bots as fast as we can, so your patience is appreciated while we stomp some bugs.

Added an additional verification question. If we continue to have problems we may have to add admin approval for new registrations, but let's see how it goes.

Update on this! We've had a couple more spammers sign up (they basically try to fly under the radar by creating a forum signature with a link but never actually posting. It's an SEO thing I assume). So if you happen to spot someone sign up who looks like a spammer, report THIS POST and it'll give the mods a poke to check recent members, though I usually try to check somewhat frequently anyway.
