Minor update : Newbies/Spambot

Post by weeksy »

I've changed the Spambot info to a new style which is 'liquid/solid'

You get to drag and drop 4 of each a liquid and a solid to enable newbies to register.

Obviously it doesn't affect anyone who's already a member, but thought i'd provide the info anyhow

Yay... we had our first proper spammer today :)

That may seem weird for me to get excited but i was beginning to think the only people who saw this little corner of the internet were us and former TRCers... but maybe the whole universe now sees us.

yeah i think the Bot thing is fairly normal and common. I'm not famous, it's not my site ;)

I'm just the person who built it.
