 New weird spambots?

What's with the weird "my introduction" spambots?
I mean, where's the spam part if all they do is introduce themselves? I'm confused... |

| They're testing things like whether the posts get deleted and whether they get replies, to judge how worth it it is to spam here. Also, we have a spam word blacklist that would kill a lot of the standard spam content. | |

| Also sometimes their message actually contains links or weird tags that gets filtered. One of them a few days ago had a one-character link in the middle of a sentence, it is difficult to spot. | |

I saw that one too, but I wasn't sure if we should keep on reporting them...
Maxim, should we? |

| Maa, usually they are trivial to spot (maxim and I usually read all the forums posts) so you don't really have to bother reporting. If you see one that isn't deleted after a few days maybe yes then. | |

OT: This got me curious about what kind of following the SMS (or any bootleg variants, like the NES "Dendy") had in Russia. :D

How come we don't have "SEX" in the list of blocked words?
http://www.smspower.org/forums/viewtopic.php?p=61011 Right, it's a prefectly legitimate word when used in certain contexts, but... Maybe guests should be disallowed from using it? |

| Because of the Scunthorpe Problem. | |

| Interesting read, I didn't know about that. It reminded me of penisland.net (pen island), a website which actually sells pens. | |

This user has signed up to many forums on other websites, and made exactly 1 post each time with a one-line subject that is loosely related the topic. I can't tell if the associated website is malicious or not. It is hosted in Kiev, Ukraine (registered to a Maxim, but surely not our Maxim!?) and is only referenced by this user's posts and keyword lists in Google. |
