Post by hunter with MS »

I see that the spam has found a way into the forum again . As I see there are 7 posts so far was nice not to see this junk but all good things must come to an end !

I’ve been reporting them as soon as they pop up so maybe they will put a stop to it.

I just counted 18 as of this posting date and time. I really have no idea why they do this. They can’t really expect anyone to buy their products. The posts (if that’s what you can call them) seem to be incoherent jubberish. Are they another CB competitor just trying to muddy our site. I really just don’t understand what is behind this Garbage. Sorry about the rant. Just gets so old so quick. On the upside 111 Days 7 hrs 50 min until Ct. bow season starts. Yes I do have the count down app.

Perhaps in the future Excalibur will have to limit forum access to registered owners.
The only spam I like is canned, and it needs to be fried. :mrgreen:

They can be tracked by IP address and hopefully Kevin will block them all. Most likely it is the same person with different handles. I’m with you, ban them all.

It is the weekend, and the moderators are probably relaxing and/or spending quality time with family. :wink:

When Peter or Kevin get back online they will clean them up! Best thing to do is just report them! I would love to get a hold of them and beat there :eusa-deadhorse:

I haven't been around lately due to family matters (mom and dad needing more and more help, getting up there in age) but logged in yesterday and was turned off by all the spam when I turned on the new posts and saw nothing but Spam! Logged out frustrated.

Thanks Kevin for looking after this over the weekend, that's beyond the call of duty! :eusa-clap: I find the spambots focus on weekends and holidays to blast us knowing there is less moderation during those times. We have had almost no spam lately due to the many things we have in place but these scum bags who produce spam are constantly finding ways to get through anti-spam measures. I suspect they had registered months ago before we put new measures in place and decided now would be a good time flood our forum with crap.

Sorry for any inconvenience.

Peter
