By the Lord, it's all my fault! If you click this link you get to a tutorial on how to infect this site with a spam bot. See? Everything is explained what the bot needs to do in order to be able to post to the FGB... Not much sadly... |

Japo | Lohl... Apparently there are websites offering cash rewards to people for solving captchas to train spambots. (I'm not going to link to them, of course.) Of course they don't tell what they want captchas to be solved for, but it can't be anything else. | |

I will email him tomorrow separately, but please use the form for things like this, apart from anything else it allows tracking of the issues within the abandonia email account for both him and the admins |

I haven't used the contact form yet, I assumed you or Dave had a more privileged line to STD? I hear they read the regular messages eventually, but don't we have anything better? |

Somehow, I think we are getting such an incredible increase in bot attack simply because the new subforum name include "bureau"... Notice how many tax ad we are getting? |

Yes and this infraction (the ban from a regular mod for this one reason) should never expire. I still think our captcha obviously isn't working, and STD must upgrade it. On Monday. PS: I've looked at IP's, and although there are some repeats the bots are coming from all over the place worldwide. Maybe a new vBulletin vulnerability was discovered that we have unpatched. |
