    Default Possible Spammers?

    I see a lot of new members...with info like:

    First Name:
    ErickVannini
    Last Name:
    Desu
    Interests:
    ErickVannini
    Occupation:
    Finland
    Location / Province:
    Finland
    Country:
    ErickVannini

    What are these guys all about?? I am sure it's spammers, "e-mail list" seekers, etc etc etc. Suppose one can't really stop it, but it stuffs your web-stats up.

    In the last few days Ive seen quite a few of them, most get banned straight away.
    Around the steel no tortur'd worm shall twine, No blood of living insect stain my line;
    Let me, less cruel, cast feather'd hook, With pliant rod athwart the pebbled brook,
    Silent along the mazy margin stray, And with fur-wrought fly delude the prey

    Hi Pierre

    Yeah I saw you had most banned...good stuff. Just wondered what these guys want out of it? E-Mail addresses to advertise viagra, share prices, etc? jeez...must be a boring way to spend your hours, trawling the internet collecting e-mail addresses!

    I think we should put up a banner on the forum home explaining exactly how we will hunt these spammers down and in detail how we would torture them with 6/0 Gamakatsus. We will find you......any ideas? Maybe a return e-mail as we ban them, they must not sleep for 8 days.

    Cheers,

    Philip
