This thread is for one purpose. If you receive a PM from somebody -AFTER THE DATE OF THIS POST- purportedly asking you to become a VIP, and it isnt from someone with the word "Moderator" or "administrator" in their title, post their screen names here.

 

No other comments please.

I want to give you an idea of what we're up against,

 

Each of the names above (minus mine of course... :thefinger: ) came back to a different IP address. When each IP address was used to search for members something like THIS came back...

They have dozens of IP addresses.... And HUNDREDS of unique screennames. Im banning them at the IP level, which nukes the whole list using that IP... But I get the sense its a tip of iceberg kinda thing.

ok... I have deleted all accounts signed up between March 16 and march 19, 2016 with less than 1 post.

 

 

It was over 2000 screen names. Pages and pages and pages of similar gmail addresses "gfhgfhgf19xx".

 

If you signed up between those dates, and didnt post, and got deleted.... Sorry. :s-redeemer:

Do we have captcha requirement when signing up for LP? That might do the trick.
