Title: STOP REPORTING THE FUCKING SPAMMER
Post by: Limetless on August 18, 2012, 09:57 am
I know they are there and I am not blind, I am dealing with it as and when I have time. Baring in mind I have been dealing with this all night I realize they have not fucked off.

I have spoke to someone who is trying to get their site DDOSed so give it time. There is no point deleting their posts and banning their account because they just come back.

STOP FUCKING REPORTING IT.

Limitless is correct. A few months ago, it was usually just kids or idiots that wanted to cause trouble.. So, I would either just ignore them, warn them or try to fight them.. While fighting seemed to work very little, ignoring them and warning them seemed to be the only thing to fight it. If you fight it, all you will get is carpel tunnel syndrome...I killed them with kindness, and that actually worked a lot.. Like asking them very nicely to stop..I know it sounds weird, but it worked...

I'd love to see the Limetless 'kill them with kindness' method. ;)

Would a captcha put a stop to all this spam? Like if a poster had to type in the captcha before he or she could post any thread? I dont really know shit about that kinda thing, but just thought i would shoot it out there. Thanks.

I would suggest banning on *mtgix* positive.

Using "banned words" or some SMF alternative would be first idea, that comes into my mind.

Edit: Yup. SMF 1.x it would be admin->Forum:Messages and topics->Banned words. Censure might be bad idea, but I am sure that nobody will need prozac if he couldn't write message that contains "mtgix". Would actually bet my left hand.

Edit II: I stand corrected. It just replaces banned word. On another hand - http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?mod=1876 (clear web!) mod might give ideas and pointers.

Oh don't worry about it, you only have newbies left and right giving these idiots money...

I tried and put a "SPAM" reply in all of their threads.


You shouldn't be able to make a thread until you have 20 posts or someshit..


This whole forum is going to shit.. it takes 24hours+ to remove a few spammers?

It seems the people who are spamming are the ones who are inflating and deflating the BTC prices

^ you sir do not know what you are talking about.


the spammers are scammers trying to take your money for nothing... They are not selling bitcoins on mtgix.com they are stealing your money....

Its probably the same person. Its real easy to just keep making new accounts. I guess it could be a team of spammers. Either way its annoying.

I wish telling them to smoke more pole like I have been would make them go away, but no.

I loggin and am like sweet someone messaged me (not too many people msg me lol) and no, it has to be a filthy garbage spam.

I don't envy you lmiitless, not one bit.  I hope they fuck off before you get so fed up you end up murdering someone out of spam rage :P

Someone did report this spammer, then the person in charge of dealing with spammers (Limitless) made a thread saying I KNOW ABOUT THE SPAMMER NOW, STOP SPAMMING ME! (while  try and sort out how to get these guys to fuck off)

Sounds like .... 'common sense' to me  8)

Yeah I mean, come on guys. You can see I am killing off these threads so I know it's happening, you don't all have to report it because it just means I get more distracted from getting rid of the bastard.

General guidelines

If I or the other Mods aren't doing anything about it - Report it

If you can see myself or any of the other Mods doing something about it - We are on the case so no need to report it.
