Aren't there any filters which can block this kind of spam..?Title: Re: Why there is too much spam? Post by: mexxer-2 on December 24, 2015, 08:38:32 PM however, why do they only target one area..? Its changing, sometime ago it was Bitcoin discussion, before that it was just any random board etc.Aren't there any filters which can block this kind of spam..? No, it would've been implemented if there was by now. The reason being, the words(count as well) are randomEdit: This thread is not needed, if you have any question , ask them in the other 7 threads.

Sometimes it takes a while longer for some of the posts to get removed but it is usually because it was not reported and sometimes because we are busy (holidays and all). You should not worry about it, it is just a slight annoyance. Title: Re: Why there is too much spam?

Post by: Amph on December 25, 2015, 03:23:22 PM because they feel like the forum is falling apart, usually when those spam bot overtake a forum it's only because it's near its end or something like that
i see this plenty of time with other forum that becoem less and less active, spam bot enter in play.... you see plenty of users, but i would not be suprised if in reality we are only 100 with everybody having 50-100 alt at this point...
