Free To Play 3 Report post Posted January 19, 2011 Okay seriously, is something being done about the spam bots? I keep seeing their illegible posts all over, and it's getting to the point where I think a manual screening of new members should be enacted. I'm not trying to sound like a troll, but it irritates me that so many can just slip through the filter. (Just for clarification, I'm not mad at the mods or the admins, I'm mad at the filtering system.) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Free To Play 3 Report post Posted January 20, 2011 I think the mods now (Not counting Polraudio) should just deal with them. I haven't seen any mods besides Polraudio and Marked online since they came here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Arkbennett 16 Report post Posted January 20, 2011 I live with a mod. When I see spam, I tell him. And he does something. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 21, 2011 Yeah Wyzrd isn't active on the forums but he has been deleting topics. Polraudio is doing a good job and the rest are inactive. Though isaacsol does come on, but only now and again i think. There are few members who've been here a while that I'd consider making mods, but there's not too many. I havn't done anything about the spambots yet because I've been really tired. I have to get up at 5am and I haven't been sleeping too well so when I get home from work I usually sleep. Now its the weekend and I'll spend some time on it. Hopefully I can get rid of them. EDIT: I added a challenge question of the registration page: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

laansolo 3 Report post Posted January 22, 2011 There is a very good reason why issacsol isn't on that much. I'm not sure if I should say, because it is his to say, whether he wants to or not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marked 197 Report post Posted January 24, 2011 Yeah his role here isn't exactly a moderation one. Personally I'd like him to post more but he does plenty behind the scenes for us :) Topic Closed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
