Porn-Spam Usernames

Funka Genocide · 04-17-2009, 12:13 PM

Not exactly sure what you'd call this, but I've seen a few members with names like "xxxusagirlsexxxtt" that are obviously here to market internet porn, I believe they have links to the sites in their user info.

Not sure if that's a bannable offense or not, just thought I'd bring it to the attention of management in case no one had noticed yet.

Usually we don't bother banning accounts unless they manage to actually make posts, which very rarely happens these days. Links in the profiles though, hm...

... tell you what, we can use this thread to collect the account names that do have that. Once we have a few together they can be edited in bulk. Meanwhile I'll go see about disallowing profile edits for users with 0 posts.

Beaupersmus looks suspicious as well, although I'm at work and don't have the balls to click the link right now.

It's really not a high-priority concern since hardly anyone's ever going to see those links unless a lot of people habitually comb through new accounts' profiles. Still, might as well be thorough.

Speaking of which this one makes me iffy.

I just finished torching the hell out of that guy on the tubes. Thanks Mirai you've gotten me into a flame-war over the use of Nyhm's name.

Closing because that's the dumbest thing to ever get involved in.
