SPAM! - Cressers - 06-08-2021
Moderators please wipe it off as if it had never existed. If it stays in any form it will be a victory for the spammers and will only encourage them further.

I thought the paper bag machine one was all about Ellis Harrison
RE: SPAM! - Tomsk - 06-08-2021
What do they hope to get from this? Or are they just fucking about?
RE: SPAM! - Hammie - 06-08-2021
spam spam spam eggs and spam
RE: SPAM! - Hammie - 06-08-2021
Sadly, I guess we will have to have a moderator approve new threads.
RE: SPAM! - slayer - 06-08-2021
If the mods changes it so all posts have to be approved, this place will die.
But they're now using open source software, so this crap is bound to happen.
RE: SPAM! - Site_Admin - 06-08-2021
There has been an uptick in this nonsense in recent weeks. I will have a look at the settings and see what can be done to make it more involved to sign up a new account.
RE: SPAM! - Cressers - 06-08-2021
A 'prove you're a human' simple maths CAPTCHA? See how that goes, and if the problem persists, add further hoops to jump through.
RE: SPAM! - Hammie - 06-08-2021
don't make posts approval only, but perhaps new threads?
RE: SPAM! - muschi - 06-08-2021
The way to deal with it is to make all new accounts have to confirm by email the address they have given is genuine.
So if a new account is opened they get an email sent to that address, no reply means no account, once registered if they offend their email account gets blocked.
As for capcha no no no, ffs cresssers you have sight problems, you should know better.

A Pompey-style capcha would work.
Well, unless it had a picture of Marquis and Harrison and said: Tick all the boxes that have prolific goal-scorers in them.
RE: SPAM! - Cressers - 06-08-2021
Yes, I know only too well about capchas, which is why the 'solve a simple sum' is far better than 'is that a traffic light against a tree? Oh bugger, not another one! Is that a truck or a bus?' load of wank.
RE: SPAM! - Hammie - 06-08-2021
could use pictures of Ballies team, which player got booked in this game? Lots of ticks required
RE: SPAM! - WheresDave - 07-08-2021
It's ok battered but shit straight outta tin..
RE: SPAM! - Tomsk - 10-08-2021
Wtf is going on, what do these fuckers get from dumping this shit here...????
RE: SPAM! - Cressers - 10-08-2021
It's a numbers game. The spammers are paid by businesses to spam. Even if the hit rate is one in a million, spamming is such a low cost activity it makes the proposition worthwhile.

Additional challenges now added to registrations which will require some Pompey knowledge
