Spammers in The Forums

This discussion has been closed.

Dealt with as much of the spammers as I could. One of the key 'features' of the new version of MDL will be a report function, so that this post will be obsolete (hopefully.) 
Yay thank you for your hard work Skye! I look forward to it :D 
Now they're putting that crap in the reviews...

Here's Victoria Jakobsen's "review" of Legend of the Blue Sea.  LOL. *sigh*

It's an advertisment for a laser pointer.

(Check this account. It posts Kissasian links every time there is a new episode of Legend of the Blue Sea and Sweet Stranger and Me page, so I don't know if it is spammer pretending to be a normal user).
Edit: I'm sure it is a spammer since it posts Kissasian links on almost all dramas on the Hub. Legend of The Blue Sea, Sweet Stranger and Me, Weightlifting Fairy Kim Bok Joo, Romantic Doctor, Teacher Kim, Something About 1 Percent. If the user is trying to help, he/she would at least have those shows on his list, not just provide links when there are new episodes for shows he/she doesn't watch.
We increased security and banned all the spammer.

This needs to be deleted cause it might lead users to an unsafe website: http://mydramalist.com/discussions/legend-of-the-b...

Ji-N said that they have been banned but they still show up as members under the user type.
They are banned, but user type doesn't always sync if we're doing mass ban manually.
