Legokun Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 OK, i have been wandering the forum for a bit, and i noticed something. I have seen at least 4 threads entitled: "Free Yugioh Cards! (Not a Scam!)", or something along those lines. What's up with that? What's with all the Advertisers, Spammers, and who knows what else? Why are people, err, no, i can't refer to them as human, as they are just People creating accounts, posting a few threads, someone reporting them, then they get themselves banned. What. The. Heck. Discus. P.S.Do mods and/or super mods have the ability to delete threads?Just curious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 They've finally got around MyBB's security. I get it even more on SAW than YCM does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushfire Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 The forum software that is being used- MyBB. The spam bots have got around their security and can now join/post. >.< And yes, mods/super mods can delete threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JadenxAtemYAOI Posted April 29, 2010 Report Share Posted April 29, 2010 free cards = swagbucks.comswagbucks.com = shi-load of work/filling surveys and offersenough points to get free card = random common cardrandom common card = damn, wasted two months of my life When things are free, don't expect it to be a good offer or in good condition. I bought a 25 dollar WII on ebay and when I got it, it had the data area taken out. Good thing I got shipping insurance (or whatever you call it) I got a used WII.

DARKPLANT RISING Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 True. Most active forums have spammers. I don't get why the Mods don't ever delete threads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WTF Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 True. Most active forums have spammers. I don't get why the Mods don't ever delete threads. They think that locking a thread makes them feel more superior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KuroKibo Posted April 30, 2010 Report Share Posted April 30, 2010 Just say them as 'want-to-get-attention members'. Even if they are not human, it's still just the same thing; those threads are misleading, right? If they are, then it's the time we should get Spam-bots out of the way. Where is often you see kind of these threads? General? P.S: BrickFist, I like your Grox avi. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brushfire Posted May 3, 2010 Report Share Posted May 3, 2010 Here's a better idea: make YCMaker install the stopforumspam.com Plugin and possibly another form of security until 1.6x comes out. 'Kay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
