Yeti Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 This is as good a reason as any to charge for a subscription. At least someone would have to pay money to post like this. And once banned, they would have to buy another subscription to keep it going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachT Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Kicked out 22 this morning. They come in from Europe and Asia overnight when I am sleeping. Most are from India, others are using VPNs which change every time they use them. Several from Moscow this morning. Can't block them very easily. Had 130 emails from the same group, using my "Contact CoachT" link. Most of them are working for companies. They don't tend to come in on the weekends when they are off. There is an authentication process but these don't seem to be bots, They appear to be individuals so they can answer the authentication questions as long as they have valid email addresses. They also appear to use AI to write posts. Pay subscriptions might stop it but then there might not be anyone here but me and a few others. We'll come up with an answer. Just bear with us. In the meantime, report those posts but don't click on the links. 1 5 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoachT Posted October 9, 2023 Report Share Posted October 9, 2023 Some changes have been made which may require everyone to verify, one time, that this is a safe site, etc in a pop-up. The popup message may alarm some people but no choice now. New members will now have to both verify their registration by email and I have to validate each one before they have access to the boards. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
