Hey did EVERYone just get spammed in PM?

[ldygmr1]

Or was it just me?
I know it was spam because NO ONE who ever read ME would send ME anything remotely religiously controversial. Hello? I very very rarely hop into those and I have never yet done it here.

How do YOU recognise the less obvious spam?

Nope. No one would dare spam me....:D

[Janet]

I don't have any spam. I must be past all hope!



Yesssss..... :D

[ldygmr1]

Well that's just wrong in so many ways!

[carmachu]

Murphy strikes again!

[BattleNymph]

I didn't get it.

Perhaps it's just that you two need to repent more than I do? :D

[carmachu]

Apparantly BN, its those that are TOO much a smart ass that need to repent...baby hippo and LG fit the bill....

[ldygmr1]

Are you trying to say that dumbasses are safe Carm?

[Cranky Dog]

My PM mailbox is clean... for now.

Why yes, yes I am....and since I *am* the giver of the award.....I'm completely safe...

[BlueNinja]

Nobody ever sends me PMs, but that's because I'm not important. :D

[carmachu]

Did someone say something?

[COTSBOE]

I didn't get it. (Not that I'm complaining)

[carmachu]

Would you like it?

[COTSBOE]

Is it interesting?

[ldygmr1]

Okay. So now I'm trying to figure out how Chim and I got picked out of all the threads in all the forums in all the internet.

*spooky voice*
who knows why Chim an LG were chosen? The shadow knows

[Dr. Mercury]

Two questions:
1. Who's the spammer?
2. Why didn't I get spammed?

[Parzival]

Nope, no spam here.

[Wook]

I got it. Some blog out of Israel.

AS I said, you're the only ones evil enough. :D No really I mean it! I'm good as GOLD!:shrug:

[Starhawk]

LG, is this genuine spam? **** said something about a blog from Israel...? Are we talking about religious garbage from a non-contributing account here?

If so, please will some of you forward me the PM and any relevant info so I can lay the admin smackdown?

[Detritus]

I got PM spam from someone with the handle of "egershna," but I've already deleted the message.

[Wook]

I've already deleted it as well but it was from the same handle.

[Starhawk]

In the future, please alert me. I need to block/ban spammers and I can't if you don't tell me.

[Starhawk]

Confirmed both of them as spammers.

They are banned by username and IP address.

Also will modify things so non-verified users can't send PMs.

[Cranky Dog]

Confirmed both of them as spammers.
I had already pegged egershna as a spammer when I noticed that he was a non-contributing member of many many forums across the web under the same name.

We're bound to attract more of them in the future now that we're not a forum buried deep in the layers of WebRPG.

[ldygmr1]

Is anyone else picturing Starhawk as a steely-eyed Clint Eastwood, dressed in black, face shaded by stubble, wearing a poncho and calmly blowing the smoke off his six-shooter?

Close.
I'm seeing the image with him blowing the smoke over his cigar as his gun hand twitches over his holster.

[ldygmr1]

See, I'm picturing him post carnage...

Ah. But this was the first taste. Now he knows they're coming. He's waiting for it. Watching with calm and deadly patience.
