eddie 0 Posted September 1, 2012 What's up with the spam from a guest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 559 Posted September 1, 2012 That's what I wanted to know. reported it, but I guess that none of the moderators with jurisdiction over this part of the forum are online this evening. I don't understand why guests can post up with no moderator's approval beforehand. I didn't even realize that guests could post up at all, until this evening.

carguy 1 Posted September 1, 2012 Guest are not supposed to be able to post. What do I need to fix?? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 559 Posted September 1, 2012 Somebody posted here. I signed out and checked....it was fairly easy to do. A captcha is asked for and a name, then it's good to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

carguy 1 Posted September 1, 2012 Since we didn't get spammed while I slept, must have fixed it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dirt dame 559 Posted September 1, 2012 Since we didn't get spammed while I slept, must have fixed it. Yup, I checked it just now and when I click on "reply", I now get a "you cannot reply" box. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bikeslut 1 Posted September 2, 2012 What did the spammer post? I missed it. you want somebody to re-spam? I didn't see it either, nor did I get a PM to nuke it... but it sounds like it's handled i didn't know you could post as a guest either (although I remember somebody that left the site in a huff posted a couple of replies as a guest, I assumed they got their name changed while waiting "permanent" leaving) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was some almost unintelligible drivel about pot smoking or something, with a link that I didn't click on. It looked like it was written by somebody who used an English translator.
