Yes, we have another spambot problem. Yes, you may use the report feature to help us get rid of them. No, they are NOT real people, and telling them to read the rules etc. etc. etc. will not solve anything. If you haven't seen one yet and don't know what I'm talking about, here's an example -

We are working to resolve this problem, and in the mean time, do not reply to them. Thank you.

For what it's worth, they post a lot in Help and Eterna Forest from what I've noticed. Usually it's crap like "Cheap THIS IS A SCAM, REPORT ME!".

But I wouldn't ever click their links, you never know where it goes to or what kind of virus the website might give you.

Edit: Oh...smart. You censor what they say into REPORT ME.

I thought they were actually saying that, lol.

THEY ACTUALLY SAY TO REPORT THEM, IN BOLD PRINT NO LESS!!!

:lol: wow that is stupid. who do they think is going to fall for their tricks and actually click the link. you'd think they wouldn't have to say that these days.

sure i'll report them as soon as i find them. it just amazes me what these hackers and adware/spyware people will say to lure you in.

No, that's what the admins have what they actually say censored into. They're advertising, but most of them say the same thing, so it makes sense to censor it.

lol, that's what I thought too at first.
