In this forum you can write about anything that does not fit in other forums.
This includes generic Oric talkings and things that are totaly unrelated but want to share with people here :)

Regarding spam bots...

Post by Dbug »

When you see a spam bot message, please do not answer anything and just use the spam reporting feature (as some of you are already doing).

Thanks :)

That's ok :)

Basically my approach on the issue is to go "it never happened", so I ban the original poster of the message (which generally has only one post), and then I delete the message, and whatever message was posted after that that refers to the original spam message.

Last month I had to do a bit of message surgery because one of the persons who answered managed to actually ask what the spam message meant, and then talk about the main topic and other people answered on it :p
