Thanks for the heads-up, guys! I'll be sure to report these messages to the Higher Staff if I receive them at any time.
 
Wow here too, out of the many forums I go to this must be like my 4th forum where that PM has been sent
 
I have it once or two, but didn't bothered to click them. :D
 
I haven't got any.....Yet.........
I'll report It if I do, though...
 
One spammer by the name of yuyen has just made 4 posts all over the place!

(tells teacher)

EDIT: They've all been deleted now. In the words of Terry Gillingham from Monty Python "He's not a pokefan, he's a very naughty boy!!!!

Hey, just wondering.. I have been recieving a few PMs stating that the user has a Forum and he would like for me to join.. I read the rules and it is totaly BANNED to do that right? Well is that similar to this or totaly different?
 
many forums are facing this problem.
ADVICE TO ANYONE TRYING TO HACK PC ACCOUNTS: Hack roms instead, thats acceptable to us. perhaps you might get a nice HoTM. :P :P

There's a huge difference between hacking an account and hacking a ROM. The word "hack" used in the two phrases have completely different definitions.

what? wasnt i joking? i know that difference.
 
Just ignore/remove them. Also report them to staff. I will check everywhere I posted at now :)
 
Best thing to do is keep adding measures to stop them (questions that are related to the topic of a forum seems to work the best in stopping them)

Example:
Example:

What is the name of Ash's yellow Pokemon?


Something like that could work to stop them. But I'll report any spam to staff (but I'm never here much so I don't get them :()
 
Two of my members on another forum have sent me information on a member sending PM's to join another forum. Wold that be considered SPAM? And a few other things I don't know about apparently. He goes by Kakashi Hatake on here I think.
 
IVE GOT AN IDEA!
If we spam the bot with PMs it will screw up the loop , bot cyle (I should know ive used bots for RPG Training... anyway....), it will then break the loop and the bot will malfunction and eventually the crashes will cause the bots host PC with crash.

I got that message too. I just completely ignored it. At the time, it never occurred to me that the message had been sent to several people. I just thought it was one of those annoying members who adds everyone as a friend just for the sake of it. And yes, that user is now banned. Their VMs are still on my page. .__.

Sometimes, I really wonder where people come up with these ideas../ -_-'

Well, on the other hand, I once got a random PM from someone telling me to join their new forum, and if I did, I could become a mod. I didn't believe any of that garbage, so I reported the post and deleted it. I'm pretty sure that user is now banned. I'd also do the same to a spambot: report and delete. Case closed.

I got one from I_MASTURBAIT_WITH_POKEMON saying "Your computer is in danger! Download this program right now!" or something.

I think he's banned for that or his username...
