BunnyTu2006 taken care of.

This thread serves as a place for admins and supermods to post in individual posts their spambot bannings, to avoid further cluttering of the Member Notices (spambots aren't members anyway. >.>)

Did I not suggest this some time back? It is nice to see that my idea was, in some way, observed. and now this post shall end, being it does not ask a question pertaining to the banned "member"

You've been a member for...a month?

And yes, it is a good thing that this idea's finally come into existence after being considered for a while without any action. Thanks, Toan. ^^

I warned you that the spambots would learn to mimic us. Soon they'll try to befriend us. Then they'll sell us their stuff, their awful awful stuff. For all we know they're already here, among us... one of us. Maybe you're all spambots. Maybe you're all....

Advertising antispyware programme, anyway. But it'll probably give you more than it cleans up...

If that were a real person, and you said that "me an intimate problem" implied that that person wasn't smarter, you'd be mistaken. Perhaps they are from another country and don't know good english. You don't know.

Seeing as this is a bot, yes it's become smarter than other bots which simply have said

"hey, come here"

Well how about this: he misspelled phentermine, the link didn't work, and he didn't even recommend it.

In my opinion he got a bit too involved in his cover story about his 'harmonous woman'

I'm not saying that he was perfect, just saying that he disguised it fairly well.

Well, it was obviously a long time ago when D~N suggested the spambot thread, yet it wasn't done. I based "about time" on that.

And just a thought, but who is that "clueless-studios" guy? A real person or a bot?

We can't know for sure until they post, not with their ambiguous email account. Thank you for trying to keep a look out, though. It's always appreciated.

By the way, there's a new one in the form of streamate07. That stuff about the Japanese toilet cam scares me.

Wouldn't it be a good idea to validate new members from now on, as spambots can't validate surely?

We have it set up through email validation.... so apparently they are getting through that.

streamate07 has been properly disposed of.

Yeah, yeah, I finally got around to getting rid of the tiity one. XP I kinda ignored them for a while becuase they hadn't posted anything...but their email address definitely suggested that they were a bot.
