  • Hi m8s,


    I wanted to let you know that 2 days ago a spam bot registered on the forum and instead of posting his spam (llike they usually do) this bot went through the entire member list to automatically sent spam mails to registered users. By the time this issue was reported probably thousands of members got a spam email from this user sent via the portal.

    Such stuff never was an issue before.... I guess such bots always will find a way to spread their crap.

    The bot was isolated and removed. I have taken measurements to prevent such issues by disabling the email function for the basic usergroups. Staff members and members of moderated usergroups still have this function. I am currently working on a way to allow users to verify that they are real users and not just bots. Once the (automatic) verification is done the email functionality should be available again for these users.


    Sorry for the troubles.

    Usually I am the only spammer who sends mails via the Portal.

    Only dead fish swim with the stream.
    Don't discuss with idiots. They only drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience there.


    This is ten percent luck,
    Twenty percent skill,
    Fifteen percent concentrated power of will,
    Five percent pleasure,
    Fifty percent pain,
    And a hundred percent reason to remember the name!

  • I haven't received any spam e-mail by the way, maybe that bot didn't send it to all. Though, you don't have to apologize (at least to me), such things do happen sometimes because they are inevitable.

    But meeee is apologizing for all the 'requiring permission to enable post' by my spam. ^_^

  • also not your fault

  • Interesting...

    and welcome back, PE. Though I don't think that you actually came back, but just to say it nonetheless.
