Spam on Board

Post by *MVV »

There is a special subforum that should work like a spam trap but it seems that it doesn't work at all.

Were there messages for last years? I haven't seen any. Spammers bypass this subforum somehow. Maybe because of missing any activity in it?

E.g. today one have posted in every forum subboard except the trap one. :)

The ones who post in all or other forums are usually people, not spambots. Moderators an myself can easily delete such spam via the "ban hammer" function. If it annoys you, you can apply to become moderator. :)

You will never see any messages posted to the spam trap forum: Any user who posts there will immediately be banned before the message is even published.
