See I told you letting guests post code would be a bad idea, you should at least limit their amount of pins, b/c now the board is FULL OF SPAM!

and all for the same thing, I just counted 16 spams...I'd delete them if I could but I can't

They should have their IP banned

Sorted...

I have deleted them all and will be adding a validation code for guests only tonight (logged in users will not have to mess around with a validation image). I am not banning IPs unless i really have to since IPs are generally shared with other users.

Kind regards,
Scott

P.S: Spam is just another word for advertisers posting content in an unethical, unsolicited way.

Validation images sounds good, I just don't want our community full of unsolicited crap

I got them pretty quick... darkvengence sent me a PM notifying me of the spam... i went and deleted it... then checked back every few hours... deleted any new spam... and then when i got home i added the validation image requirement for guests.

They were posting links to viagra and other similar stuff

Kind regards,
Scott

Haha you only had to visit the code pin board to see the spam.

Kind regards,

Hopefully the validation image will cut it out...unless they develop a bot with image recognition which is highly unlikely
