Spammers on Steepster

Literally the first 3 pages of the forums are spam threads. What do we do? Report them all one by one?

Seems like other forums usually have mods who take care of spammers…not sure who does that here?

Oh gosh… that was really terrible. I’m sorry guys! All of the users who just spammed the site have been deleted.

Thanks for coming to our rescue!

and theyre not even good spammers like if you’re going to spam at least make it something cool like porn or drugs

LOL

or at least have it be relevant to the subject, tea spam would be annoying but at least it would make sense!

Mandy said

Or the less annoying ones that post one or two “articles” about clothes or moving or bipolar, instead of 50 movie spams in a row

Cripes. They’re back again. OO gets out the flamethrower
Where the heck are they coming from lately? I thought it was (fairly) complicated/human necessary to sign up for an account?

Better get out the dragons – they just won’t quit O.o

one of the spammers is named joerogan this is hilarious

lolainred said

now they’re replying to themselves….

Where do they keep coming from?

Cwyn said

They are probably bot programs.

I can’t remember, is there a captcha used on the sign up? That might help.

Sorry about that, usually they don’t post as much as they have been recently. I removed all the ones I saw had posted today.

On an unrelated note, our search traffic for movies has jumped dramatically! :)

Haha! Thank you Jason!

Cheri select said

I do like tea and movies.

Thanks, Jason, for taking care of these.
