I'm still cracking away at teh spammers at old CM, but they are slowly winning. I can't keep up, whole subfora have fallen, and they are making inroads just about everywhere else. We cannot get out. We cannot get out. They have taken the bridge and Second Hall. Frár and Lóni and Náli fell there bravely while the rest retreated to the Chamber of…Mazarbul. We are still ho{ldin}g...but hope …Óin's party went five days ago but today only four returned. The pool is up to the wall at West-gate. The Watcher in the Water took Óin--we cannot get out. The end comes soon. We hear drums, drums in the deep. They are coming. |

I wonder that the spammers can post but I can't on the old board.
I miss the daily trivia questions.

They've never posted before, so the flood control won't get them.

They've never posted before, so the flood control won't get them. It took me awhile, but I figured it out and Ovi is wrong*. See, the server thinks it's May 2018. So the flood controller is comparing our last post date to the server's date and saying "Oh ho ho, no posting for you until after [Month]† of 2019..." whereas the spammers are posting at the 'current' server date. * Not that Ovi is wrong. I've known that for years. † Whatever month you last posted in in 2019. If you haven't posted since April of 2018, you can freely post. I specifically banned goldomark before the shitstain could figure it out and run around fucking with threads posting in them as though he'd posted back in April/May of 2018... |

I specifically banned goldomark before the shitstain could figure it out and run around fucking with threads posting in them as though he'd posted back in April/May of 2018... This isn't fundamentally different from what I said, though, I just put it much more succinctly and easily understood. The issue is that we've posted and have tripped flood control. The specific reason for that is that the server date is wrong, so the 30 second flood control will take a bit less than a year to expire, due to the difference in last post time and current server time. The new spam accounts don't have a last post to trip over the flood control. And, you know it's the flood control because you get the flood control message when you try to post. I'll patiently await your admission of error and retraction of immediate accusation of wrongness. I can't argue the general, so just the immediate will do. |

They've never posted before, so the flood control won't get them. The bolded part is inaccurate. Some of them have posted before. Years before and they just slid by unbusted. Some are now on a posting frenzy, blitzing out 30+ posts in a very brief span (as soon as they can repost, they do). |
