 Chinese Spammers.
« Thread Started on Jul 6, 2009, 6:53am »

Last night Sunday 6th July, I caught a Chinese spammer spamming the site with a live link to a Chinese site. I don't want to, but I may have to approve ALL new registrations to stop these nuisance's from getting onto the site. This would mean a total ban on Chinese members if I do. To me they are spoiling an open site and making it hard for everyone.

Due to the past Chinese members making nuisances of themselves, ie spamming the site, making unauthorised adverts etc, I'm blocking all Chinese registrations. My apologies to the genuine Chinese who want to make contributions. Contact me privately and I'll unblock your registration. BUT, one advert, one spam and you will be banned! I leave the site registration open for a reason, if it's continually taken advantage of, I will close open registration and make it "Admin approved." A step I don't want to take. SO BEFORE REGISTERING, READ THE RULES!!
