Spammers - an update

Post by chalmers » Mon Sep 09, 2019 11:33 am

Hi! So, RubberToe and I are being overwhelmed by spammers signing up, so we have temporarily marked every new account as suspicious and they are inactive. If you have a friend who has tried to sing up but hasn't been activated yet, I apologize. Email me or PM me, and I will manually do it.

It's a temporary measure while we get this sorted. Sorry!

If I erased their account (I went through and tried to catch up on clearing out the queue of obviously fake accounts, and I definitely erased some real ones by mistake), I sincerely apologize, and am not censoring them, etc. Please do re-apply (I think you can use the same name?), and send me a note. Double sorry!

I was going to write something over the weekend to go through the database and clean this up but the hurricane had other plans. Soon...
