DOS Games Discussion

Guys, please ban this user:
http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14002

It's been spamming before (and Trash Heap'd), but has returned recently for more of the same treatment.

Please ban this spambot too:
http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=13950

[Edit] And also this one who thinks we're all French here:

More generic thanks in a necro:ed thread, by french spammer to be 'kosik'.
(spamlink in profile)

Status: Spam post Trash Heap'd. ~MrFlibble

Two more spam accounts to ban:

http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14098

Spam on necro:ed thread (10 years old) by "William2789"
http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14100


Another similar spammer here: "james1212", posting in an eight year old thread.

(at least the spams have *some* relevance to the thread topic)

Spammer 'kiemcom' seems to be selling school tests.
(I guess it never passed any turing tests itself.)

1. One wall-of-text bot "onlineeva" with (somewhat relevant) spamlink in profile. (2 posts so far, varying text mass)

http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14109

2. A spambot "Justin Goodwin" talking to a sock puppet "Connie Carrol" in a thread about being too stupid&lazy to study in school. (recurring spam-link in thread)

3. And what is the user 'rushi99' trying to say? No spam links though.
http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14101

Thanks for linking to profiles, I cleaned up the posts and the admins should do the rest.

A returning registered spambot posting some more walls of text: 'mounes'
http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14022

I have no idea why some known spambots haven't been banned yet, but frankly I have no frequent communication with the admins.

Another french speaking spammer 'Arion22' hiding a link in the quoted section of his post.

Status: Spam post Trash Heap'd. ~MrFlibble

Another nonsense reply posting with just a link by 'rushi99'...a broken spambot perhaps?
...in a site news thread from 2011.

http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14101

And another returning spammer, judging from the stuff advertised, turns up: 'Fernandes'.

http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14130

(It is talking to itself in a few posts on the same thread)

Another French 'generic thanks' posting, in a 12-year old thread.

botname: 'claricia27'
http://www.dosgames.com/forum/profile.p ... le&u=14142

(I'm just waiting for one to post about itself in *this* thread.)

Post Trash Heap'd and topic locked. I wish there was a way to auto-lock all topics within a certain age threshold.

It seems that these days I spend most of the time here cleaning up spam posts :-\

Thanks, Mr Flibble...and while your at it, please show these salesmen to the door again, thankyou! ;-)

(If you need some assistanse with the cleanup, I can offer my help, but it is really an endless battle.)
