Well, since these idiot spammers tend to post into threads now, please report any suspicious activities in here. I don’t patrol around here, but it may help out other mods in this section, thanks for the help guys. =)

Please stop posting in those BOT threads, PLEASE!!! infractions will be going around if you newbies continue to do so. Posting in these threads, will result in more bots!

Well, this actually happened in the IMM forum, @ the “check my new kicks” thread

Another forum I visit prevents users from posting links on their first few posts. That would help with this kind of junk: http://forums.shoryuken.com/showthread.php?t=172757
