We at Zilvia are well aware that the forum is being inundated with fake users/spam bots. Unfortunately, until a few new precautions and measures are put in place, there will be problems with spam.
In the meantime, us moderators and admins receive dozens upon dozens of alert emails everyday with reported spam bot threads. To make our lives a bit easier, if you report a thread that was made by a spam bot please follow these simple rules...
1) DO NOT CLICK ANY OF THE LINKS POSTED UNLESS YOU WANT A NASTY LITTLE VIRUS OR MALWARE INSTALLED ON YOUR COMPUTER/PHONE!!!
2) If you see a thread that includes the above text, PLEASE DONT REPORT IT AGAIN! The spam bot AND thread will be banned/deleted within a few minutes to a few hours of the thread being reported depending on when one of us is available to do so.
3) DO NOT QUOTE SPAM BOTS POST IN YOUR REPLY!
So, please help the moderators and admins on Zilvia by following the above rules. We will one day do completely away with this new onslaught of annoying forum spammers, but until then, we appreciate everyone pitching in to help out!
