Why do I get the feeling that dispite the fact that Andrew blocked that IP address for the spam generated already, we are going to get more soon? I fear they won't give up and will just use another IP address to start over again.

Here's what I do with those knuckleheads. NOT EVEN REMOTELY SAFE FOR WORK.

Probably not, , ,they're likely spamming hundreds of sites, most of which have not, and will not catch on or block an IP. They will eventually, but not because Andrew alone blocked their address.

Probably not quite the right place to mention it, but I did try and log in off and on the last month or so and everynow and then it tells me I can't post because my IP address has been blocked as 'spam is known to come from this account'.  Unless I've been hacked [and as far as I'm aware I don't think I have] I wonder are my occasional posts that bad they've been mistaken as spam?

Anyways, if I wait a few hours or days I can usually get on but everynow and then I'd want to post but can't because I've been banned...

Anyways, no biggie, since I lurk mostly these days instead of post anything of worth: usually I'm full of gin or bourbon when I look this site up.

You might want to post that on the "Trouble Tickets" thread, and maybe Andrew will see it.  The IP you're posting from now isn't banned.  Do you use multiple computers to log on?
I'll take you places the hand of man has not yet set foot...

If it happens again I'll post it on trouble tickets, the last half dozen times or so it's worked fine.  I do use different computers every now and then, though it has happened on this current computer a few times.

It's probably for the best: I'm sure I wouldn't have added anything of particular value anyways!  :wink:

Looks like someone has decided to give us a new helping of SPAM.  Like I need cheap knock off items.
