Title: What is going on?
Post by: Tiger Man 94 on March 29, 2013, 11:41:17 PM
What is with all of the bans lately? Does it have to do with the obvious spam?

I am assuming so. There have been a lot of them lately.

Yes it is because of the spam. A few "members" are trying to spam the site with nonsense. Our updating twitter feed and facebook feed have been disabled so that the spam will not reach our twitter and facebook. For now it will only be updated manually. IF you have any questions message a mod or admin. Thanks

Most of the spammers had i.p. address' from China. I have taken down our automatic facebook and twitter updates as I believe that is what was attracting them. I am working on a mobile app to monitor it 24/7, so hopefully it will not be an issue. As soon as I beef up the security I will be re-implementing the feeds. Until then please report anything you see that we might miss, and all feeds will be updated manually, so there might be a lag. Please be patient.

Thanks.

Seems like you were able to take care of everything? I like having the twitter feeds in the news.

Looks like they fixed it. The twitter and facebook feeds are back up.

I have implemented some new software to help with the security issues and spammers. Everything is now back up and running. Thank you for being patient.
