Spam.

Post by Captain Nash »

I noticed that certain people are allowed to get away with spam.
Though in the past I've served a weeks suspense for apparently spamming.
What's the deal?
Do the mods have favourites?
Does the resident wannabe mod have different rules, she certainly appears to have the backing of the mod team.
Just some clarifacation on what is and isn't spam would be good.
If somones replying to posts, why is that spam?
Thanks in advance.

Just a little info for the powers that be especially, but anyone who's online aswell.
We had a large influx of new members over at Mi6 yesterday posting spam and being real jacka$$es.
Really childish. Though the situation was dealt with well.
Just thought I'd let you know incase any of them decided to play a similar stunt over here.
:cheers:

That was us. Only joking. Thanks for the warning Captain. We've raised our shields and charged our photon banks.

Cheers Captain.

We are always being spammed. Quite a bit of work goes into dealing with it. I've lost count of the number of forums and websites I browse, "harmless" or otherwise, that have been hacked.
Bring back Bond!
