Ah!!! SPAM ATTACK on SINGAPORE BUSES FORUM!
-
where is jason when we need him
-
In fact I am only interested in this thread now. Perhaps someone should create it, and then send the address via PM or post it here (but not recommended as spammers might infiltrate)Originally posted by QX5216J:lets go to private server forums for a little while, while the ADMIN deals with the spammer.. -
Most of the topics are deleted except that the fullstops clones are still out there. My guess is that the spamming is a form of revenge to bus forum.

I think it's the only higher-profile forum here that is unmoderated. Look at the topics. Don't they look like a imaginative and clever kid, but who just trolls for the kick of it.Originally posted by tanjun:Most of the topics are deleted except that the fullstops clones are still out there.

hope jason appoints a moderator soon.

Here's the replacement forum: http://sgbuses.phpbbportal.eu/
Its still empty because I still have to set some stuff. But this would only be in use until the mod has been chosen. Please PM me in the replacement forum if you want to moderate the place and I will choose. -
Anyway, anyone who post spams can be dealt with by the law
-
He's just too free. I think if he's given another few weeks he can clone every regular users here.

Any idea of the penalty of spams since it is illegal?Originally posted by sbst275:Anyway, anyone who post spams can be dealt with by the law -
Why not just use SINBus or the BIH forum at businfohub.sgforums.com? People would be more willing to go to these forums.[/url]Originally posted by TIB1049L:Here's the replacement forum: http://sgbuses.phpbbportal.eu/

Just a question, who is actually the founder of Singapore Buses Forum or the one that create this forum?
-
I am afraid we can't use the BIH replacement. Once the spammers flood there there would be exactly no end to the spam. Its hard for the mods there to do all those editing and such.Originally posted by Scania:Why not just use SINBus or the BIH forum at businfohub.sgforums.com?

And I don't think ot would be good when the kiddos who don't know much about buses to go in to SINBus and disrupt the peace there.
But its fine with me where you want to move anyway. I can use the other forum for something else (like a class forum) -
He is Airbus330Captain. Both forums are not affiliated as one serves a replacement purposeOriginally posted by tanjun:Just a question, who is actually the founder of Singapore Buses Forum or the one that create this forum? -

Sorry, but this case will probably be thrown out of a court. And SG laws don't apply to overseas servers. We have to look at UK laws instead.

a) The spammers have never interrupt or obstructed the lawful use of a computer, unless they have hacked into another computer to spam the forum.
b) Impedes? Maybe.
Prevents access? No.
Impairs the usefulness or effectiveness of any program or data stored in a PC - Maybe.
Forums are always opened to spam. If enough precautions have been taken yet spam happens, it can be considered. But at the moment... I don't think so. The forum software is a bit old and has quite a lot of vulnerabilities. We have seen a lot this year. -
