      Goodfriend and his transparent attempts to infect my computer and sell me something are getting on my last nerve. The fact that he won't stop trumpeting our alleged friendship during all this is particularly annoying. I find it hard to believe people actually fall for this stuff; I guess he has to spam as much as he does to stand any chance of making money from this ridiculousness. Spammers, please, at least try to make it believable. You're better than this.

      EDIT: I tried to send my good friend some much-needed advice, but he's apparently filled up his own inbox and can't receive it.

        Yeah, I just delete any PM from anyone I don't know now. Even opening it can cause pop up crap that tries to run scripts on your computer.

        If I hadn't known that Crunchyfrog was also a member at CYS, I would've deleted his PM as well.

        Goodfriend and lukkkyman are the worst ones for the PM spam though.

          Agreed. This PM spam flood must stop.

          When I returned from my break from CYS, I got about 25 PMs mostly asking about Xburner or whatever it's called & fake anti-virus crap. Most of the spam came from GoodFriend AKA Not-so-good friend I don't know.

          SERIOUSLY! Do something about this! This is not good for anybody here!

            That's funny... I have received almost none in over a year... You guys must just be magnets to this kind of filth and scum.

                What's sort of interesting is now I'm getting PMs from spambots posing as Administrators. It's as if the bots are trying to see if I'll be more likely to be receptive to an authority figure...

                Buzz. Try again!

                More bots:

                StopAdmin
                LadyAdminX

                I think there was another "admin" too.

                  LadyAdminX sounds like a dominatrix admin.

                      I think you should ban more than the spambot accounts but also ban users & bots from using "admin" in their usernames to help lower the numbers of admin impersonations from these spambots as well as ban the IP addresses belonging to the bots.

                      These suggestions should help fight forum spam.

                        Oh, is that what we need to do? Good thing you're so smart. It's a good thing all spam bots only have one, static IP address.

                        And, while we're at it, let's take the "allow spam bots" switch, and flip it to "off". Because, you know, it totally exists, and we can totally do that. We wouldnt' have spam bots if we didn't want them. We just like the thrill of battle.

                            Lies and Blasphemy. I've been a lot more crankier on the forums before. There's a reason that drums is my assigned nemesis. MRH has been assigned to EndMaster, and... I don't think anyone has bothered assigning Mega to someone. He doesn't make for an exciting enemy.

                              Hold on, hold on!

                              So just because I leave the forums for a year or two, MichaelRayHolt becomes ENDMASTER'S nemesis?! MichaelRayHolt was my man from the very start! I was the first person on the forums to see him for what he really was! Man, we used to go back and forth like a couple of 10-year-old girls in a cat fight!

                              But ya. We did kinda make peace the last time I saw him, so I guess that's probably what did it...

                              So much for history.

                                Really, MRH should be every right thinking person's nemesis.

                                Scratch that. A "nemesis" usually at least implies intelligence and competence.

                                I think "pathetic attention whoring punching bag" would be a better description.

                                Megaman's not really a nemesis either, he's pretty much a spambot at this point
