It's interesting that they're really only posting here in Forum Help. Is it because of the name? It doesn't seem to be posting in the more popular places.

They started in Off Topic, but yeah the latest batch have been in here. No idea why they haven't hit the game-related forums.

It's like a mini-forum game. See if you can report the post before someone else does! Though, I think everyone here is really good about reporting them as soon as they pop up.

Great. I nail a spambot before I leave the house and two more pop up while I'm gone.

Yeah, we're pretty much on top of those guys as soon as they post something. I, for one, am at work, so I cannot browse these forums all day, but as soon as I have a minute, I look up all unread posts, ban the user and delete the topic. They are pretty easy to spot, so don't worry about it. Just use the Report Image function in the right area over each post, and we'll get a notification and shall deal with it as fast as available. :)

It's like they're taunting us. But we will be ever vigilant. :twisted:

It's a log of banning activities, so I am afraid you cannot access it. :(

I like to imagine doing a barrel roll into the Death Star trench and saying "I have you now" before hitting the 'report' button.

Funny, I imagine switching intp predator vision and speargun them to the nearest wall. :D

Sometimes I can catch them before they post. And the random combinations of hometown and interests always crack me up.

Origin: Vatican City; Interests: Kite Surfing
Origin: Moscow; Interests: Backgammon
Origin: Johannisburg; Interests: Poker

Good stuff.
