Oh How I Hate Spam!

(1/1)

Cube:
It's 2015. Part of me cannot believe that we still have spam. Yet this forum has experienced a rash of new users signing up with the sole and express purpose of posting spam as though it were legitimate content. As such, I've changed the new user registration policy to require E-Mail verification, and if spammers continue to be un-detererred by that measure, I will have to take more drastic measures. Of course, at this point our traffic is pretty much exclusively search engine bots, but I hope that as I write more and more about Venturii and what I'm working on <behind the scenes> that others may pick up some of the topics found through similar searches and begin to contribute to this site.

Cube:
... Reading this today it reminds me of the Bulletin Board Systems of olden days gone by, where lonely Sysops would sit by their computers, waiting for phone calls that never came... Kind of sad really.
