netman 1,424 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Just a note to others, the recently appearing posts in chinese by huouuohou03 appear to be spam offering fake university diplomas for sale. I hope eskerahn or waxberry takes notice of these soon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waxberry 638 Posted July 11, 2019 Share Posted July 11, 2019 Thank you for raising the issue. We will tune the spam filter level and hopefully they do not appear again. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
netman 1,424 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 It has returned... Maybe filtering messages with "qq" in the title would work, barely appears in english if ever and legit messages probably wouldn't get to sharing contact info right in the subject but this spam does. I would be willing to volunteer if the forum needs an extra moderator to combat spam at more hours of the day btw. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Doktor Oswaldo 904 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I absolutely hate captchas, but that would be a solution Quote Link to post Share on other sites
netman 1,424 Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 I absolutely hate captchas, but that would be a solution I wouldn't be totally surprised if the particular spam here is manually placed by something a la copy paste attack... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waxberry 638 Posted July 13, 2019 Share Posted July 13, 2019 We are now working on the update of forum hopefully can work this time. :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
