He's getting the bots fired up again...they are coming faster now.
So it won't be long before we can't keep up removing them.

Whatever was done to better secure new IDs...isn't working...just slowed them down a bit.

It is refreshing to see a few useful posts in the forum. I suspect that the site admins must have taken care of this one, thanks much to those that did the deleting.

This has been more of a "denial of service" for content sort of thing. There's nothing else going on with these posts other than denying the normal users the use of the forum. You can still log on and see all the bogus postings, you just can't use the forum for anything. Sad that these guys don't have anything better to do with their time.

I see 16 newly created bots and they are firing up for another attack.
It's going to get ugly real fast. Can't keep up manually deleting one at a time.

Yes, they're back at it. I don't know if it's coming from a Korean IP address. If so, how about disabling those?

I put this on the wrong thread.

Are spammers IDs created by a bot and read as random letter/numbers? I googled one of them called sked1971 and unless the spammers randomly chose someone's internet ID it is an actual person.

Spam is worse for some of us than others, in Viet Nam 1966, all we had to eat for meat was SPAM, 3 times a day for 6 weeks, but later it got worse. They put us on Irradiated Freeze Dryed Food, nothing would eat it, you had to soak it in water before you could cook it, then we had to hold our rifles on each other to gag it down. RoadKill would have been better. We stole "C" Rations for food to get by. The "C" Rations were dated 1947 in 65, by the time the year was up we had ate pur way up to 1956 in 1966. Sometimes a possum and sweet potato looks pretty good, but all we had were big rats. Never going to find Spam or Rice at my house! Jim
