In regard to the ever increasing amount of spam, I would like to thank everyone for their use of the report post tool (and their patience
) . This feature greatly helps bring our attention to new spammers.
We have various measures in place to stop potential spammers. Unfortunately this can mostly only stop bots. For the rest that are human; we have to deal with them as they come.
We will do our best to promptly remove spam users and their posts. Please continue to use the post report to bring this mess to our attention. In the future we hope to find and implement more effective anti-spam measures.
Thank you,
Impulse

No problem, spam is bound to happen. Its odd that they take this much time to register to post all of this spamming stuff here, but nobody buys it, I'm implying this to the people not the bots.
Vasiliy, whats that in your avatar?
That doesn't look photo-shoped to me, is there any history on it?

Luckily those evil spambots can no longer use the "Send PM to all Users" function. Thanks for constantly fixing everything Impulse!
As for the bots, could they come... from SONY?! (DUN-DUN-DUUUUUN)

I didn't even know Dino Crisis 2 was in production for the Dreamcast.
Was it released?

I've noticed the past few spammers I banned would merge in a topic in the gaming section to spam.

Within the past week, the amount of spammers increased to 15-20 per day. I'm not sure why the sudden increase... but, it will stop now.

I reported this account twice already but for some reason both reports were deleted without any action taken, so I figured I would try one more time and just report it here instead.
