All the spam from Bravia: Go away
 
Anyone noticed all of the new posters spamming the site? They all seem to be coming from Bravia or wherever that is. Thanks admins for taking care of it once you see it.

why cant we have a filter like other forums or atleast a active moderator

I wonder if the mods can just do an IP ban? Hachiroku has been pretty good with deleting the threads with spammers. Just strange it seems like the same person/group of people keep doing it. You would think they would learn after the first or second time.

That was what I thought of at first too. But I had to google it to see if it was some city in eastern Europe that I hadn't heard of before. Well, it isn't. hahaha

I know other forums were able to locate the ip of some posters and delete them. This would be useful because if he/she wanted to create another username, they could be discovered easily and then deleted.

I'm actually on a Mac too. Actually disagree with you about the "no virus problem" as that is really an old wives tale. I still run antivirus on my Mac. But I digress.

I'm sure a minichill could be helpful to you, no?

Hmm, I stalk these forums with my Ipad perpetually so maybe I could use some virus protection from the good ol' land of Bravia?
