    Re: Spammers

    Only three this morning, Kwatt told me last night he blocked some ip’s so should be easier to contain now……

    I shot one this morning so hopefully they are getting tired, or maybe they have just gone to bed. 👿

    I will keep an eye on the buggers today.

    Re: Spammers

    Ken, is it possible to force people to register before they can post?

    It is possible yes and, as a last resort, that may be what will have to happen but it would adversly affect the forums use by the public I’m afraid. The trouble is that if we want open forums we have to live with this sort of shit from idiots like this. 🙁

    Re: Spammers

    Surely you could leave the posts open for public viewing but if they want to contribute then they would need to register?

    Not a good idea John as that would kill off the accessability the public enjoys using Internet Forums of this type, the whole essence being openess and availability.

    I agree with Martin, I think that would kill off a load of posts as people would just move on.

    And I just deleted another three. 🙁

    NAH, me and p45 are having a competition to see who shoots the most down. First one to get to 100 gets an ace printed on the side of his vehicle and the UKW administration will buy him free drink at the UKW 5 😆 ( so P45 told me)

    On the serious side, is this spam appearing on the site through some kind of automatic spam sending software? if not this guy never goes to bed.

    I’ve changed the name of the title, I may be wrong but if the site is being “watched” the very presence of this thread scrolling with the title “Spammers” may encourage them back.

    They seem to have gone for now anyway 😀

    Appologies for the bad timing with two of us being away this weekend 🙁

    I did a bit of snooping this afternoon and I may have blocked the barstewards 😉

    Nope, been checking all night and never saw any. Only 2 this morning and have been getting about 6 each morning since last weekend. They must be pissed off, famous last words.
