What's up with the spam?

what the heck is going on around here?

Have you seen the last threads? They are SPAM. We're getting invaded.

I propose to be moderator to clean this mess if no other mods are willing to do it, cause this is pretty sad. :mad:

What? What are you selling? Penis pills? Pictures of Britney's vagina? I don't understand.

Oh damn, that had me laughing my ass off. I spilled....um, water that is, all over my screen man. I almost started a thread entitled "What the Hell is going on here" after seeing the spam threads selling viagra.

But then I found foot fetishes had already started this thread here. OnCleSAm, TPS will never be what it once was. Good luck to the idiots who are letting this crap get by. This isn't a Photoshop forum man, it's turning into an online swap meet.

*Hey, they have Britney's pictures over here in the used parts section*

We are working on it as we speak.

One of the possible solutions will be to update the forum to a newer version, and install some anti-spam scripts. Since Rich will have to undertake these actions, we're kind of waiting for him. After the upgrade(s) all will be well again, sorry for the unpleasant teamps experience at the moment.

I'm trying as hard as I can to delete all the threads as soon as possible, which as you might figure, is quite a drag for me and the other moderators too.

3.6 has some new nice features in general. <3 I would suggest you upgrade. http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?t=186803

Its seven parts so have to scroll a bit to see all 7 parts. Whats really going to help out is the "Improved Image Verification (Captcha)" which should stop bots... although wont' stop randomly stupid people yet.

Yep, we have ran this by Rich and he has informed us that he has lost his code for VB and is working on find it again. Hopefully things will change around here in terms of the amount of spam we are all seeing.

Might be a good excuse to email people and talk about the New Upgrade and all the spiffy 3.6 features. ;) Remind people this place exists.

Ahhh, the Dr. Pepper Queen..... they still let you come around here?
:D

The spam latley HAS been overwhelming to say the least. I have been just physically removing them for weeks, unless its something usefull.... like penis pills or pictures of Brittney's vagina. :p :D

Last couple days I was really busy though and didn't get by here much. I'll try to do better. ;)

Yes!!! They let me out of my box! The therapy must be working because I'm not trying to thrash you within an inch of your life for spelling Dr Pepper with a dot. Wooo progress!! ;)

As i said in my 'hello...again' thread i was bored and searching on google images and i found my monkey sig and when i clicked it it brought me to teamphotoshop.

Its changed!!

I've been cleaning out about 4-5 a day. So things should be better than before. But we can only do so much :p
