  Saw the Starship Troopers RifftraxLIVE event on its first outing...which ended up being seriously awkward. Especially since one of their jokes was about Jake Busey as Ace.
  
  Mike: Nice smile...
  Kevin: ...for a Clydesdale.
  
  And who do I end up running into and talking with the very next morning? Damn but that was a little weird.

  If you guys have really serious problems, I know HLP had an issue a while back and had to implement some clever anti-spam auto-filters. In case you could use some help, let me know and I'll ask exactly what they implemented etc. (Although, they're on SMF, not Vanilla, so maybe it wouldn't help anyways.)

  I don't quite understand these spambots... I mean... Traditional Chinese on an English speaking forum which has nothing to do with what ever they're trying to sell...
  
  What, is it just "internet presence", surely the way they're doing it is counterproductive in any case...

  Am I the only one who hasn't seen any of these spambot threads?
  
  I see threads like this and I wonder, "What the freak is going on?!"
  
  Maybe I just have bad timing.

  You only see them if you are browsing the forums 24 hours a day--like me.

  I wonder if the OP realizes that banning IP ranges really does nothing but cause problems down the line when black listed IP's are recycled into the address pool. No spammer would use a static IP

  Would be nice to have some sort of ignore feature for each individual user. The moment I start seeing that stuff *poof* never see it again.

  It's just the bots being bots.
  
  It's best to just ignore it.

  It's probably something someone cooked up to get around the Trump Era Foreign Invaders Policy...
  
  Shoot first, unless they are Canadian..... then ignore the problem completely.
