Spam PMs

[CPMaverick]

Another spam PM from a new registration, lenSumoully

Is there a way to have a minimum amount of posts before you can PM??

[Turbo-GeoMetro]

I know right, i've been getting all excited about getting a PM, then it turns out it's just junk.

I actually manually approve every account on the forum. I'm trying to stop it.

[linuxman51]

what? you don't want to know about pharmacies?

[VR4Dani]

I have not gotten any. I wear protection.

[tryiian]

These things brought me back to aSpeed cause I was racking up on emails saying I had received PMs. After the third or fourth one I thought it must be important so I decided to come look. When I saw what the PMs were about I had to check the forums to see if aSpeed had been abandoned and was just an e-wasteland…

Turns out you`re all still here!

I got a PM titled Hello Friend, but it wasn't really a friend. I was sad :(

[CPMaverick]

[Nsparks]

I got one from ingrrid713 today. It said my computer is at risk... oh shit!

[insert_car]

i got one that said i have teh diAbeeeetez. OH NOOEZZZZZ!!!!

[Veedubtrek]

the invasion has begun...

[Grider]

Same; ingrid or whatever pm'd me. also WTF is with people on the board that lock out their profiles (see attached from trying to look at this spammer's profile)? Is that something you are doing Adam or is that them taking advantage of some privacy setting on the board?

[CPMaverick]

I assumed that's because Adam deleted the profile, but I am not sure

^ Yup. Why are we getting spammed so bad here lately?? I have never gotten these stupid PM's before, but in the past month I have recieved ~5.

[linuxman51]

[Grider]

[skyhighsami]

I haven't gotten this first one from here or any of the other forums I am on.

A propensity for bullshit dispensation does not qualify you to be professionally exempted by the spammers.

[AlmosN8kd]

[OptionLess///M]

are there admins on this forum? its probably not a difficult task to prevent pm's prior to a certain post count

[TylerW]

FFS with the spam PMs raaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaage.

[Veedubtrek]

nope

nope :pimp:

[adam p]

Adam, could you like hire an admin or something? K thanks.

[Adam]

Yeah, like... I am the admin and vBul doesn't have those options to turn off PM's to specific values (post count etc)

I manually approve every account created on the forum now but, apparently there was a lot of "sleeper cell" accounts on here or the accounts that I do approve, that appear legit, aren't.

I could simple turn of PM's all together.

That's a hack for 3.6..

We're on 3.5 and it's $150 to upgrade

Why not go to 4.0 for $25 bucks more? You've paid for this forum out of your own pocket for a long time; I don't think anybody here would be against paying a little donation money for an upgrade. Surely between the 25 or so "regulars" around here we could come up with $175 for the new recent version of vBull.

[VR4Rob]

I'd definitely be down for contributing a little $ to upgrade vB

[adam p]

Yeah let's do it man.

[Nstig8r]

+ eleventy... I am open to help in any way... Monetarily or otherwise. I am an admin for several other forums, so I know how tedious and frustrating it can get.

What is your paypal??

[Veedubtrek]

Plus more

[Adam]

I won't be giving out an paypal information or soliciting donations until I plan everything out.

I'm heading out of town this weekend to gamble, so maybe I won't need to solicit any monies from the community.

I will be taking recommendations on roulette numbers though at the present time

According to passenger 57, you should always bet on black. Or, so I heard.

[st00pidc5]

true...slightly annoying...kills the excitement of getting a PM

[AadosX]

Wait didn't we give money to this forum a while back? What happened to that situation. =P

[Adam]

Well... Apparently I did 5 years ago..

http://forums.aspeedracing.com/showthread.php?t=1685

There was $168 left over according to that thread, so I'll go by that.

When I get back I'll upgrade the software

[AadosX]

LOL sweet. Not calling you or anyone out.. or even saying that you should use that money from before... as many of us are happy to donate again.

I can imagine how much of a pain it could be to keep a forum going but at least this one is small.

What server do we use anyways?

[JDMZ32]

I know right, i've been getting all excited about getting a PM, then it turns out it's just junk.
Yea, my thing still says I have 65528 unread messages so I never really know :confused:. It's been that way for months... I was going to make a post about my 8 or so spam PMs but I saw they were all already BANNNED.

Apparently you don't have to even be an active user to send a PM.. That user was never approved by myself
