Title: GDB Spam
Post by: Brixius on September 02, 2006, 01:07:29 PM
I just went nuclear on our user DB and deleted about 2300 user accounts.
It is not near all of them, but it is a start. I may have accidently deleted a few
valid user accounts in the process. If so, I am sorry but you shouldn't
have looked like a spammer  :oops:.

Thanks,
Brix.

More spambot accounts getting deleted today.  If yours gets deleted accidentally, please recreate it and remove the words discount tramadol/bukkake/russian brides/scented candles/kitten pictures/hoodie/free cell phone from your profile.

More seriously, I'm trying not to nuke anyone accidentally, but I'm sure I'll get at least one person.  Email me if this happens.

New round of deletions and bans. If your e-mail has been banned, I would recommend seeking a more reputable free e-mail provider.

If you feel your account has been deleted in error, or that your site/e-mail has been incorrectly added to the Big List Of Stop Spamming Us, please send an e-mail to the mud account.

If you're a spammer, we'd really just rather you go away.

Yet more deletions ongoing.  If your GDB account was deleted in error, you might consider, as mentioned before, switching to a more common email provider.

You should probably also consider not including words like mortgage, casino, porn, pharm, etc. in your "interests"
