I never knew there was so much crap. I've never seen any so you must be good.

It's usually in the night and in the mornings when they pop up, I'm assuming since a lot of the locations are in Moscow and that would be the opposite time of day for us. I get a lot of the new registered users before they can post anything, though. Sometimes it's guests and other times it's registered posted stupidity.

Yeah, I saw them about a half hour before I saw these posts, so that's probably not the best way to tell me. Laughing

I know, I know Laughing

This is getting obnoxious. Those damn thing upload themselves every hour, especially during the night. I wake up and there's at least 20 new ones. Now they're starting to make "help wanted" posts Laughing

One thing that might help would be disallowing numbers in usernames. Many of these spam accounts have at least three or four digits at the end; disallowing numbers would make registering their names impossible.

Doesn't matter, we have a few members on here with numbers on their usernames that arent spammers Confused

It shouldn't do anything to already-existing accounts - it'd only stop new ones with numbers in the names from being created.
