Asper Sarnoff Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 We've been hit by a spambot, advertising something to do with WoW it seems. I have deleted his posts, and edited those of members who have quoted its spam.I'll advice you all, that if you stumble upon obvious spam or quoting of spamposts, please report it to the moderators, such that we can take action against it.Thank you for your cooperation.

Redeemer Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 Wow, it can make members quote it? Or is that just people quoting to laugh at it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DZComposer Posted June 18, 2010 Share Posted June 18, 2010 It's people not using their brains and quoting it to complain about it. The point of link farming like that is to get search engines to follow the link, thus increasing the linked site's search engine rank. By quoting them, you give more links, ones that us staff can miss, and thus are actually aiding them.Just hit the report button and don't reply. It's a bot, it won't read your post anyway.
