I know nightwatch can only hide threads - but these person needs blocking.

Hope someone picks it up soon to hide their posts. There are kids as far as I can see.

Hi another

we are on it!

its a spambot, which means its generated automatically not a real person.
basically a robot,

so its kind of difficult to stop

and we can't ban it as we don7t have the powers to do that- HQ will do that in the morning

thanks for flagging Smile

Thanks, NiteWotcha (and team?) for acting so speedily to remove this spambot grim post over on the baby names boards (which somehow makes it all the more grim).

Hi there Zuzu

yes I know - grim particularly in babynames, relationships etc.

and yep, if you could post on the Night Watch board over night, its better than reporting.

NightWatch are only alerted to reports (by email) if there is mass reporting of one particular thread or post.
Spam attacks are very scattered so its only maybe a few people reporting each instance so it doesn't trigger an e-mail to us.

however, I personally will check the Night Watch board every now and again to see if anything has been flagged and can then check it out quickly Smile

thanks Flowers

Ok, will do.

Keep up the good work. See from other threads you've been dealing with repeated mass-attacks since yesterday early hours...what an undertaking.
