the winter system Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 So I go into Introductions and find a bunch of spam. Then it's in the General Brandon Discussion. Just thought I should warn people before it gets too bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surgebound Rainspren Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Yeah its been happening about once every two days by now. I think it's because there isn't a time limit on making new forums like there is on posting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chaos Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Please use the report feature to report spam; topics are less useful. You need only report a spammer once. Each time you report, mods get an email. So... Yeah. Do that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Pifferdoo Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 I've been noticing and reporting when I can. It seems to always be a bunch of random words. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kestrel Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Its like Eastern Street Slang but it makes even less sense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surgebound Rainspren Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 I always see phone numbers.I think its a form of advertising? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Honey Badger Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 They are advertising for some trippy voodoo love thing, freaks me out quite frankly 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quiver Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 They are advertising for some trippy voodoo love thing, freaks me out quite frankly Hey. Give them some credit. It may be freakly trippy voodoo love, but at least you can be guaranteed of quality. After all, they say they're specialist. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Left Posted April 23, 2015 Report Share Posted April 23, 2015 And even if quality is still in question in your mind, there is at least a large quantity of things you may try(risk free of course) so each and every sharder will be able to find the true voodoo for them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surgebound Rainspren Posted April 25, 2015 Report Share Posted April 25, 2015 I'm actually really tempted to call one of those numbers, just to see if it connects to the nether world! (there are some demons who still owe me from last year ) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 I would like to make a PSA that if there is a spammer, you do not need to report every spam post. It is very fast to remove all of a spammers posts almost instantly (there's a button for that for mods), but when you report every post, that means we get a lot more emails and a lot more reports in the report center to close, which are wholly unnecessary. Just so you know 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kestrel Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) I'm actually really tempted to call one of those numbers, just to see if it connects to the nether world! (there are some demons who still owe me from last year ) As fun as it sounds (I was tempted to do that too) I wouldn't. You never know what might mess up your phone so.. better safe than sorry!With all spam, its best to just ignore it and let the admins/mods take care of it. There isn't much we can do as normal users.

The Honey Badger Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 It is best to let the admins handle and to notify them in other ways, but it is fun to talk about. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curious Anamaximder Posted April 27, 2015 Report Share Posted April 27, 2015 Yeah I reported 6 or 7 people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sarcasm Posted May 24, 2015 Report Share Posted May 24, 2015 I've noticed a lot of spam lately. What if you increased the questions for the entrance thing a bit, and asked questions that only true Sanderfans would know? You could have a "select which Sanderson books you've read" tab, and have questions from there. It's just an idea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
