EmilyAnnCoons 7 Report post Posted January 28, 2007 Ok, we, the staff, are getting a little tired of the fact everyone is posting gender crap, so from now on we ask that, if you find anything like this, DO NOT reply to it. Simply hit the report button and then leave the topic. An admin or mod will take care of it afterwards. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Grandor 0 Report post Posted January 29, 2007 That's pretty strange, because I've noticed gender Topics like this on my Board as well, along with Spam Topics. I had to delete like 4 members. Even still though, it's pretty bad that someone has to post that stuff here. Hope you guys take care of it as you have been. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Satiel 0 Report post Posted January 30, 2007 I think it might be my fault - it started after we let guests view the page without having to sign up. The floodgates opened, gentlemen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grandor 0 Report post Posted January 31, 2007 Yeah, if you forced all guests to log in, it might create problems, because people want to see what your site looks like, before they make the decision of signing up or not. Personally, I would never join a Forum, I never even got to see or preview. However, their must be another way about dealing with this problem. My best guess, is someone who doesn't like this Forum, creates new accounts under a anonymous proxy and by using that he/she escapes any IP Bans. By escaping IP Bans, they can escape any bans they want, create as many new accounts as they want, and wreak havoc on this place by posting (removed) and stuff.

Marked 197 Report post Posted January 31, 2007 Dont worry about it. There are many things i can do. Lucky for you, I turned off guests having to log in before viewing the board. You guys just report if you see anything. We are testing something at the moment to stop this. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wyzrd 12 Report post Posted February 6, 2007 You can try using this http://www.ipsbeyond.com/forums/index.php?...showarticle=201 . I figure head person in charge should be able to sign on that site and if not. I can talk to an admin about it because I run the same type of forum. I have yet to add this to mines because I've been busy and haven't had alot of spam accounts signing up. :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
