About spam bots...

Postby Bear » Fri Dec 03, 2010 2:54 pm

Don't reply to em.

Once I see one has mucked around in here I immediately IP ban and delete all posts made by them (which deletes all replies as well). It is rather rare that one gets in because I coded in some unique identifiers into the registration process which deters MOST of them. Anyways, thats just an FYI if you care about your funny joke replies to them or post counts hehe

And here I was going to reply to the hilarious response Mel had to the bot post /meh2
Ah well, they are annoying, but just the sheer irrelevance and randomness of the posts made me laugh /heh

The one that I had replied to made me kind of laugh, it was so thorough and descriptive, yet at the same time, non-sensical. I give that spam bot a 4/5
Thanks to Fei for the super awesome signature!

Can you please hold my hand, you see this wasn't planned, you know I'll understand just tell me how it is.
Someday soon you will see, that it was not just me, and nothing comes for free, at least not worth dying for.

Off topic about the bots, but cool that the fairy tail guild forum link goes to this. :D Also, again, love the comics Wiz, and Fei.

Thanks for the encouragement man~

Also, I changed the way people have to register for the forums. Usually having a person pick a number from a list on the registration screen was enough to stop most bots but as you can see, some clever ones were still able to sneak through. It seems after a while, they figure out what the combination was just by trial and error. I mean, if there are 5 numbers listed, just try each of the 5 numbers until you have success.

So now it is a little more complex and I wanted to ask everyone who is registered here and still reads to respond to me with the right code which is now required to register. I just want to make sure that it is easy to understand. Make sure to do this on your own without looking at someone else's answers. Thanks guys!

From left to right, enter the first number of each of these number sequences.:
