Thursday 11/10/2022

Four consecutive spam bot message were posted about 5 a.m. this morning and were found on the Unapproved Messages list.  All four were posted by "zama sanele" and they were all about "Safe Abortions".  This "zama sanele" is also listed as the newest member here.

All 4 were deleted.

There were zero spam-bot messages yesterday (11-09-2022)

 

Thanks for keeping the spam bots out of here!

Well, I haven't been able to do that since last Thursday.   I don't know if anyone else here is experiencing what I've have on this forum but I'll ask nonetheless.

I have not been able to log-in to this forum - repeatedly - for quite a while now.  When this was happening prior to last Thursday I would e-mail BJ and apparently something he did cleared up the log-in problem.  But as of mid-afternoon last Thursday I was prohibited from logging in to this forum.  I must have tried two dozen times since last Thursday to log in here.  With no success at all.  In fact when I went to "My Account" in the upper right corner of the page and then tried to log-in there I would get a message saying "UNAUTHORIZED".

This morning (Monday 11/14/2022) is the first time I have been able to log-in here since last Thursday afternoon.   But when I did finally get logged on here I found only one spam-bot message here and it was posted roughly one hour ago (about 3:30 a.m. Monday).  So I deleted it.

However, I have not yet checked the Unapproved Topics list so there may be more there.

There was only one there and it too was posted this morning - DELETED.

Roughly 10 minutes later about a dozen new spam-bot messages appeared in the Unapproved Topics list and in all three forums.   Last one posted 2 minutes ago.

11-15 & 16, 2022

A total of 10 more spam-bot messages were posted around 6:30 p.m. yesterday evening.  Nine of them went to the Unapproved Topics list but one was posted on a thread in the Olympic Sports forum.  All ten were of course deleted.   But it appears as if they know when to post these spam messages, i.e., when I'm not monitoring the forums here as they waited until 6: 30 p.m. to do so.

Putin always knows where you are.  He sees you when you are sleeping, knows when you are awake, knows when are bad or good.....  🙂

Bronco7454 - you are waging war with billions of spambots, keep up the great work!

Go Broncos!

Well, if Putin ALWAYS knows where I am then he's doing better than I am as I don't know where I'm at half of the time.

I had to delete about 10 spambot messages this a.m.  They started coming in around 2:30 a.m. this morning and as of about 5:45 the most recent one was posted (to the Unapproved Topics list) around 5:20 a.m.  All have been deleted but it appears as if today is a day for the spam-bots to try to post messages here again.

There was also yet another message posted in the football forum by the most persistent spam-bot (mtom7862) that was also deleted.  I wish someone would delete that account.

I have to go to the gym and do my daily one hour of self-inflicted torture and do some shopping etc., but I will check back later and see if more of these spam-bot messages were posted here.

11/24/2022 - Thanksgiving Day morning

There were a total of 16 spam-bot messages posted this a.m. between 12:30 a.m. (MT) and 12:55 a.m. (MT)

All 16 ended up in the Unapproved Topics list and all 16 were deleted.

11/28/2022

Seven more spam-bot messages were attempted this morning.  Six of the seven had to do with "Love Spells".   They were added to the Unapproved Topics list between 8 p.m. last night and 4 a.m. this morning.  All were deleted of course.

On the plus side there haven't been any spam messages added to any existing threads in the last five days.

11/29/2022

Nine more spam-bot messages were attempted in the last five hours (1 a.m. to to 2.m. this morning) but thankfully all nine ended up in the Unapproved Topics list  and were deleted when I logged on this morning.
