PeteRR Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 Did anybody else get a PM from Banana Joe advertising a street race? Text: To the best drivers on earth: [Moderator: DAMN SPAM DELETED] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NASA Jim Posted December 23, 2004 Share Posted December 23, 2004 As a moderator I didn't get one one the several forums accounts I have, but I have heard of others that did. Lemme track down and see if I can find what happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NASA Admin Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 I've disabled private messaging for now until we figure out what's going on. Sorry for the inconvenience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NASA Admin Posted December 24, 2004 Share Posted December 24, 2004 Ok, well, it looks like we had a little spam attack. I've deleted a bunch of PMs, fake users and banned a bunch of foreign IPs. Private Messaging is back on, but if you got a spam message I deleted it for you. If you got a message saying you have a new PM and you log in to find none, well, then that's what it was.

Text: To the best drivers on earth: [Moderator: DAMN SPAM DELETED] It occured to me last night that we shouldn't leave the links up giving them free publicity. Nice to see you guys are on the ball.
