How can I report someone on this forum?

Post by mortimermcmirestinks »

There's a spammer on here, infiltrating our lovely clean forum.

Well, infiltrating our forum, anyway.

His/her/its username is 2016924yuanyuan and I'd like to know if someone can do something about him/her/it.

I'm back... kind of? Not really.

I told KP about it, but he said he can't actually ban people.

He did vastly reduce the damage though, from 68 posts to 27. I'm sure someone with more permissions will kick the spammer.
I flermmed the plootash just like you asked.

Thanks again for the email, 486. The spammer was still posting while I was deleting, and I ended up nabbing 80 of their posts by the time I had to log off. I emailed Flaose about the problem, and they fed the spammer to the mangling machine.

If anyone wants to alert me to spam, I'm most easily reached on Twitter - @WillPJK. When there is a big, active attack, I can let the admins know. Of course, contacting the admins directly in such a situation would be ideal.
