OK, these are not spammers, but I think they would not remember their nicknames today:

http://www.subsim.com/radioroom/memb...posts&page=505 completly.

there are a few on the pages 504 and 506 as well.

Edit: I think they are automatically generated spam accounts made at the same date / time... About 66 accounts. Sink them!

This guy crys for being fired:

Wait, do those that are suspicious but otherwise have no links to spam count? I've seen a ton of those but haven't reported them.

Hmmm... I have to say, that's probably not a spammer...looks like his links are just to social sites.

What do you guys think?

At Danasan, yeah, those are classic spambots. I must have cleaned out their sigs long ago and replaced them with subsim.com urls. Good find!

I had to work late today and will have to go to the doctor tomorrow, so it will be late Thurs night before I can resume.

But there's nothing to do on the site, just a logo "uccio" like his nick - I'd say it's spam.

I'd consider that spam, too. One of the links is a social site, the other one computer stuff.

Reading the account information, following the links...

...that's the oldest fun/spam account so far

congrats goes to you!

danasan

Edit: Is there a chance to reduce spammers in the future? I am thinking of - maybe force the new account creator to make just ONE post (f.x. hello, I am new here) to activate the account... Spammers could be found then as they appear on the bord. It would not harm serious people. Just a thought...

I agree. Him having legitimate contact info (Even if 2/3rds of it seems to be a joke) also means that he is probably not a spambot.
