Title: To any potential Frosties watching
Post by: Jem on April 01, 2009, 01:58:06 PM
What-ho!

Due to what I think is a large amount of spambots attempting to join our happy tribe, I have to sadly announce that I won't accept any more registrations with numbers in. I'm getting things like rinton245 and gdfar23 at the moment which look highly suspect to me. We're all too busy to start deleting spam from our little corner of the universe.

Here endeth the doodah. Time for tea! :D

It's always teatime for me.
And why don't they send biscuits instead of spam.  :)

Yes spambots are up to no good.

I'd much rather prefer drumbots.

No you're ok mate, I strongly suspect finding the word "Gandalf" in a registration would most likely be something legit to do with prog rock.  ;)  :lol:

Doodah or not, that sig is inspired, Mr Gonzo!
It genuinely made me laugh out loud.
Nice use of banana-yellow, too.

Or maybe a nice piece of cake?

A lot of forums I subscribe to are just spammed out now, it is annoying.

Some sites/forums dont like Hotmail and similar 'free' mail addresses, even if not containing numbers ...I couldn't get mine to be activated on this forum some time ago, even though had the initial email and I sent in a couple of polite requests :( ...no replies...so used an alternative in the end...which I was pleased worked :D ..but understand its hard to control spam and those wanting to spoil the party....

Damn, and just as I was going to request changing my name to M0u23 too! I only stalled because that 2 for the 'S' ain't quite right...  ;)
