Forum hit by a barrage of spammers - Toyota Yaris Forums

*kimona* · 02-20-2018, 11:42 AM

Over the weekend, a flurry of spammers attacked the forum and created virtually hundreds of threads. Several times, I was overwhelmed with the task of cleaning the forum.

As quickly as I could permanently ban a new registered spammer and begin deleting pages and pages of threads, another spammer registered and began posting the same stuff.

There are currently 8 banned spammers still logged in, but they can't post. AldenEr, Brantrax, DavinSi, DerikLime, Jerodsync, Keganfer, Kevenpoes, RidgeKets.

Please report spam as soon as you see it, so I can get on it before it takes over the forum.

Thanks for your help.
