And gives us a rosy looking membership!

With Ahruman MIA again, I still think we need one more admin or so to pick off the spammers after we've tagged them.

Rather than removing inactive members, I would much prefer that we had more control over signup, perhaps requiring a pm confirmation that they are a real person before getting posting privileges. That however requires more time investment from admins, which may not be reasonable to expect.

This one confirmed themselves as spambot just a few minutes ago.

It has been edited by the original poster but new sig includes dodgy links that do "nothing" - a bot/spammer surely?

https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php? ... ile&u=2567 has now confirmed his spam credentials – the pointless but apparently harmless post above has been edited to include dubious links in the sig.

I suggest that that little spamoid finds out the hard way that the friendliest board this side of Reidquat is a very hostile space to fly the spam pirate's flag in.
In other words, exterminate with extreme laser fire.

Foul play over here:

If you have a look at the "homepage" of the "new user" you know what "he" is.

Fire at will ...

Anything which gives google.com as their own website is a 'bot as far as I'm concerned...

Admins - please nuke!

Strong suspicions about https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2583 ... the same user name has today joined several other unrelated forums, without making any posts.

Good catch! Get this man a sword somebody!

https://bb.oolite.space/profile.php?mode ... ile&u=2584 needs nuking (come on Admins where are you - the list of targets is stacking up!)

Confirmed here: http://www.stopforumspam.com/search?q=SwineFlu

Is no bandwagon left unjumped on?
