I'm mostly ignoring the public forums, exactly because of the spamfest going around.

The spam(bots) get deleted regularly, but nonetheless they keep coming.

Maybe new users should be forced to use some sort of captcha system for a set period of time. A spammer will get bored very quickly where as a genuine user will understand why the measure is in place.

I would urge everyone to report spam as soon as they see it. That is what I do. Hopefully there is someone at RS who is monitoring the spam reports.

I don't think that a grown up penguin with a shotgun and a cannon should be afraid of those bots.... :lol: ...

Don't mock us, you evil thing from hell! 8-)

The shotgun is kept spare for the zombies and the canon has a slow rate of fire :(

just in case you are refering to my cigar, just so you know, that's no reefer, it's a hand rolled cigar in the thighs of devils (former bank CEOs) with natural mortage deeds leaves, really healthy (for devils and zombies only of course) ;)
