Spam on Nopesport

[Tatty]

Now, now Mrs. H!!Slagging off my son. It really won't do

[Mrs H]

Well I thought he would come back and say something entertaining - everyone is being so well behaved lately apart from the spammers - even Gross

[madmike]

I still think Gross has been abducted by Aliens and it's someone else posting

That said he's just taken a pop at Big Jon on the PP thread - so maybe he's escaped the abductors

[Gross]

Actually I'm working with the Russian mafia infiltrating 'normal' websites from a dodgy East European server...............

And me take a pop at Big Jon? ...... would never even cross my mind

[Mrs H]

Oh sorry - my mistake - Gross is obviously the spammer in the works

[Becks]

Wow, our spam's gone all molecular biology themed! I wonder what kicked that one off?!

[NeilC]

Yes, I felt right at home. Indeed as I write this the following e-mail has appeared in my inbox

Neil - How does your qPCR kit compare?

From a company that I actually use quite a lot!

[Angry Haggis]

There's a spambot posting on the NT thread... not an obvious spam so might get overlooked by the moderators, hence flagging it here.

We've now got spam posts in perfectly serious threads (see the latest one in the thread on number of BOF members/active orienteers)

[andypat]

I quite oftenuse an unrelated (football) forum and have almost never seen a spam post. No idea why it seems so bad on here but presume there must be a way of stopping them otherwise they would be as bad on every forum.

Hi,

We are close to being spam free again. Ive improved the captcha on the signup page, as the spam bots had cracked the default captcha.

I have also made an attempt to delete spam bot accounts. However whilst there should be no new spam bots, I think that a few user account may still be lurking in the user-base, so we will be systematically deleting any such accounts that remain active.

Cheers,
Alastair

Missed one ! "AADizJaiffpat " -but then registration was earlier in the week.
Keep up the effort

[Wayward-O]

Two more already created spam accounts reposted today, ASevarbardy and TurbPledbruri.

[roadrunner]

Another one to cancel (if you haven't already done so) - Stewhieft (latest posting in the "number of BOF members" thread).

[Adrian]

Checking the member list, there's still dozens of accounts to delete.
