RedDevil Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 The spam is getting worse is there a way you have to email a mod for activation for non UK members as all from Malaysia Croatia etc or email if from internet based location as they all are?

Sam Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 The spam registrations has dropped off, but there will still be spam members who joined before. I'll do a cull of dodgy looking members. Registrations per day: mit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
simonlpearce Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 Sam - I take it we still cannot ban members being a mod. Just figured it might be easier to delete them as we find them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sam Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 I've just deleted a few thousand dodgy looking accounts and stopped .ru and .pl email addresses. Should calm down now.

Si, not sure what you mean? You want to be able to delete them? Yep i want more power. I can tidy/delete the spam from threads, but thats as far as it goes, there is nothing stopping them spamming again. Oh come on Si, Sam isn't going to release his iron grip of the forum that easily!

Sam Posted November 12, 2013 Report Share Posted November 12, 2013 You can do that Si. This is me logged in as you, and I can see, on the members profile, a "flag as spammer". I just so happened to stumble on Mit's profile das_flo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
