Spammers

[R.C, Jr]

We just got hit by a spam bot. If you see any oddly off-topic posts, it is best not to reply as that can get us on spam bot lists. Please ignore the posts and I will lock them and block them as they come in.

Because I highly, HIGHLY doubt we have a Chinese contingent here on 3.5PS, I've just banned the whole IP address range.

reminds me of a dwarf I ran once that had a warhammer with an octothorpe (#) stamp on the head of his warhammer.

I did not know the pound key and number side is called an octothorpe. Looks like something good came out of this spammer.
