Link Spam Increasing

Sajuuk · 09-14-2012, 08:31 AM

Hello

Some of you have probably already noticed there has been an increase in the amount of link spammers on the forums, all from bots. We are already looking into ways to deal with them, but for now, we recommend that you do not reply to any threads or posts made by a bot, but click on the Report Post button and we'll take care of it as quickly as we can.

We don't know where they have come from as there's been a rather sudden surge of them, but rest assured that we are looking into a way to deal with it

Many thanks

- Staff Team

Bumping this to remind you guys not to post in spam threads and just to report them. It's more hassle having to clear up spam if you post in their threads

I think people need to be reminded that you should NOT respond to spambots! It does absolutely nothing and gives them incentives to just keep spamming because they think people are interested in their products. If you a see a spambot, please click on the Report Post button and do NOT reply. The report post button looks like this:

Thanks for your understanding
