Spammers

[Big Fin]

Seems like the more steps you put in to increase your firewall protections, the more the spammers try to get in.

Right now, we have 88 guest users. Over 40 of those are from this one IP address, which is from the Netherlands. 93.174.93.80

The dude has something going for Hunt Talk, or he doesn't know how to close a window/tab when he is moving on to a different topic or page.

Or, maybe he is trying to get back into the adult pics he had posted in the old gallery that has been toast, since I took over. And a few guys wondered why I got rid of that old pic gallery, when I took over as the new owner of this site. This dude is a perfect reason why.

Wanna trace where they are from, here you go. IP Address Lookup.

Most of our spammers come from Eastern Europe, the Mideastern countries, Africa, or SE Asia. Evidently, things are pretty boring over there.

For those of you who are signing up to be new users, I apologize for the new steps we have required for verification and the headaches such create. But, it is necessary to keep the Spammers away, as much as possible. So far things have worked pretty good.

And the IP search also gives me some pretty good ideas of who is lurking on the Hunt Talk site. Some pretty regular visitors who lurk and don't post.

Big Fin, Is there an average post per day per member? Your comments on the number of lurkers has me wondering.

"Some pretty regular visitors who lurk and don't post. "

Spot and stalk?

Good news is there is no DMU, limit, season, or preference points required for a spammer hunt. Open up on them Fin!

I'd never insinuate a crime, but hypothetically, could we spam the spammers as a group?
