Spammers have returned?

Post by Shark guy 35 »

In the off topic sections, there is a dangerous link to a suspicious website. I have reported it. We must take caution to prevent this from happening again.

I tend not to visit websites like that, it might start a virus download.

I understand. I think we need to change the password thingy. We have had 3 breakthroughs in recent memory.

Those are search bots. It is fine.
Unless you want to completely isolate this forum from the internet you can't avoid their presence.

Maybe it is a bad idea to post their name here because they will be able to see it. If I were to report spamming I would put it like this:

Please ban Shark Guy 35

If I put it like this, the spammer can see that he has been mentioned

Please ban @Shark guy 35

Just a suggestion. Also, I haven't broken any rules it was just for demonstration.

@Stratego (dev) can you plead ban Argent for spamming meaningless posts, and continuing to do so after being given several warnings.

Below is a link to his profile.

@Stratego (dev)
Can you give me moderator rights over Age of Fantasy forum?

I want to clear it a bit from Anders guy and his great ideas and handsome looking units.

After i also want to look over all sub-forums in order to archive unrequired, rejected or implemented topics.

Now what do i need is sub forum in main aof section:
Name: Archived — Answered
Sub forums:
Archive — Sub factions
Archive — Units and structures
Archive — Technologies, spells and abilities
Archive — Balancing
Archive — Reporting issues

I need this sub forum because i do not want to mix answered topics with implemented ones.
