Spam in Private Messages
« on: February 01, 2010, 13:11:58 »
I've been notified of spammers sending private messages to our members. I'm sorry that you're receiving those messages and will be looking into more ways to protect you from that garbage. Private Messages should now include an option to Report them to an administrator, so please use that option to let me know about any spammers who are lurking about.

Update: After reviewing the logs, it appears that most of the spammers were coming from 83up.com. Their accounts have been blocked and deleted, so hopefully we won't see any more of their kind around.

"Hello IT. Have you tried turning it off and on again? ... OK, well, the button on the side. Is it glowing?... Yeah, you need to turn it on. Err, the button turns it on. Yeah, you do know how a button works, don't you? No, not on clothes." - Roy (The IT Crowd)
