what the heck
« on: June 18, 2011, 03:04 am »

who has betrayed us, only people who have played UEAW can send these stupid bots here. I want to know even if we have to manually search each forum member. This is just getting outrageous. Another bot will be here soon, I've seen this sort of bot attack before. The creator will make up to 1,000 bots and flood our forums if we don't find out who it is. We must find this madman or woman

Why would they have to play UEAW to put a bot here?  They'd just need access to the site.

i can honestly say most people wouldn't have found this particular site unless they played UEAW or spent mindless hours searching random urls until they finally found ours. you probably need to visit a site to place a bot there, simply because you can upload it.

Okay. So I'll give you the task, to find out who this origin is, you may search beyond the ~2500 no-bot members. Additional, you will be entrusted with the task to find a way to handle with this person - what shall we do with him after you've found him, you know, banning him from the boards won't avoid his bots and talking nicely to him is also senseless - so make a plan please.
Also, you probably have to search beyond the moddb.com-members, because they could also be the origin of this attack.

And then there is the complete possibility that an automated bot-deployer stumbled across our website, detected our smf board, and activated.

can't we just ban the IPs of these bots, or like microsoft can, ban thier internet device from our site so they can't get on without a new one?

Nhahaha. We're exactly doing this - banning their IP's - but they're using a proxy, so that their IPs are always different.

But now some of them are posting p-rn advertisements on some of the announcement topics, the ones that aren't locked.

Got some spam watcher thingy going on when you look for who's online, bots have a hand symbol beside them to show that they're bots.
