You know how we haven't got many new members in awhile?
I figured out why. I have admin validation turned on.
We have 468 users awaiting validation.
AND THEY'RE ALL SPAMBOTS.

Holy.
Algernoning.
Algernon.
You're, like, the worst admin ever.
Maybe yyou should send apology that people couldn't register? Spambots won't understand, so you will be fine.

You're new to this whole forum thing, aren't you?

I nominate this for an Anaglyph Moment.
JGUY. RECORD THIS FOR POSTERITY.

Wow... now you see, that's an example of something I would do! FAIL for both of us!
Exo - September 10, 2007 10:09 PM (GMT)
Also, Lyg, where the hell were you in all this >_>

I should of known it was Alg's fault.
Edit: I'm not even on staff this is so messed up. :(

Did someone edit the Kharu-Kai post? Because I see this:

Also, they're not all spambots - Uncle K. sure isn't, what with an avatar and profile and such.

Should I turn off the admin validation, or just hope the ban filters hold?
Uncle K. - September 11, 2007 12:25 AM (GMT)
Turn it off, it's freakin annoying.
Bostwik - September 11, 2007 12:33 AM (GMT)
Everyone hates having to wait for validation, especially in Alg's case. :P

I posted a topic in the staff forum ABOUT the e-mail filters. You have them all as [wildcard].domain.com instead of [wildcard]@domain.com
And I know I was irresponsible, but there's always an admin that does everything and an admin that's just backup :P It's me as main admin and LZ as backup on BAG.

When a flood of spambots and other stuff plunges into a forum, that's never a good sign. :glare: My subconscious clicked a link to an Algernon video. It wasn't Algernon, or at least I HOPE is wasn't Algernon. And by Algernon, and really mean Algernon.
I liked not having spambots. :( though, I am laughing on the inside. :rolflolz:
The Conceptualist - September 11, 2007 11:23 AM (GMT)
OK, turn validation back on now.
Melancholy Spork - September 11, 2007 01:36 PM (GMT)
Looks like the e-mail filters aren't holding. Let me try something else.

Well, they're corrected now at least.
Takanuva - September 19, 2007 05:40 AM (GMT)
But how do you know that they're all spambots? Is it because of their email adresses? No sigs or profiles?
