We are getting Spammed bad
 

Whats going on, the spammers are showing up all of a sudden

I don't remember does this site have one of those things where you have to type in a code to prove you aren't a bot when you register?

Yeah, it does. It's definitely a human doing it. The lowest form of humanity this side of Osama Bin Laden, but a human nonetheless.

Wow, just wow, even this thread....

I remember when the spammers sold things like dick pills and watches. What is this scar-and-umbrella business? Who would buy a scarf online?

I've deleted the newest batch of spam. I've discovered I can delete all posts by a certain user, so I don't have to sift through a million spam posts, I can delete all the users at once. So say goodbye to all of the scarf salesman's shit. :D

We got another one here. Why can't they take the hint and go away? Even better why can't we track down the verimin and treat them like the varmits they are?

Now I know how I can delete them on site. So spamming will only be a brief and minor inconveniance from now on.

Thanks for killing the latest bunch. Fuckers.

and more spam all over.....whos doing this!

Don't worry, I get them as soon as I get on the forum.

The initial spam thread asking about the spam program XRumer was the test run. Now it is probably all being run by a series of captcha defeating bots They are most likely using an open proxy server so if vbulletin allows you should ban all posts mentioning whatever they are spamming as that is the only effective way of eliminating the spam until the person in charge checks back in and notices it isn't working and decides to turn it off.
