[OLD] SpamBots...

[Serene]

Whenever a potential spambot posts, I suggest that you so the following:

1. Don't open the topic where the culprit has posted.
Due to the possibility of it having any of the following:
- Links to pornographic sites.
- Pornographic Material
- Links to Internet Scam Sites

2. Don't post in the said topic. It will make it harder for us to instantly detect the 'threat'.

3. If ever that you are already in the topic and a SpamBot managed to post.
Don't open any of its posted links (if any) due to the possibility that the site it links to has the following.
- Viruses
- Pornographic Material
- Internet Scam Sites

4. If the bot joins and signs up to the Republic, don't welcome it. Asa pa kayong mag-rereply yun.

After signs of the SpamBot's existence has been deleted and the SpamBot IP Banned, you may now return to your usual RR activities.

Thank you for reading.

Sometimes I get suspicious with new members.

Ako rin eh.
Specially if their names sound botty.

[clonezero]

but why aren't they posting if so? whats the point of being a spambot and not spamming? maybe they hanged somewhere down the road


anyway your instructions ahave been read and will be followed.

I better check the members.
I just don't want to post my suspects.
I may get sued for slander.

Aside from the suspicious names... How else can we tell that iz eh spambot?(Just wondering)

[Sforza]

On these boards, do not ever click:

1. Links to gay porn
2. Links to bestiality porn (...don't ask)
3. Links to senior citizen porn
4. Links to medicines related to temporary arousal
5. Links to (D-list) celebrity porn
6. Links to get rich quick schemes
7. Links to sex toy and/or pornographic video shops

However! It you see links to videos of old gay d-list celebrities doing bestiality induced by prescription drugs, because they want to get rich quickly, save it and then re-post as many times as you can, all over the net.

Click on their name.
If their profile says their membership is still unverified, or their name is in red.
Don't Open their topic.

HAHAHA best post in the thread.

I usually Google the new members' names. When they appear in the first page of the results as members of wildly varied forums, then it's time to bring out teh banstick.

clonezero, the only explanation I can come up for you is that they somehow lose interest.

Imagine that. A bot losing interest.

The internet is full of wonders.

EDIT: Done.

Clarify mo nga ng konti...
Nahilo ako dun eh...

[Jack-O]

Ahh, yung what you mean is yung isang member ay di na tumatagal, and some ay wala o isa lang yung na post nya??????????

[Serene]

Yung ibang hindi tumagal, namely, those already checked by our beloved Boss G, have been deleted -probably-.

Others which are potential bots, also checked have not verified their accounts, that's why they were unable to post and have not succeeded in soing do. Added that naabutan na sila nung mod ni Boss G. Yung hindi makakapost yung mga unverified members.

I think bots are not actually programmed to verify memberships.
Bobo programmers...
