Many of you have been getting blind friend requests for accounts less than a day old with no information except links leading to sex spam sites. Thank you for reporting them, and please keep doing so if you encounter them. If you don't see anything done about them in a timely manner, please also PM myself or one of the other mods.

I'm sorry for the inconvenience,

I have had a few, how/where do you report an account?

Thanks for this. I've had two friend requests today, and have reported both profiles as they're obviously spam.

To report a user, click on their profile, and scroll all the way to the bottom. To the right of where you see their views and hearts, there should be a "report user" link.

Cheers, I hope I get more...I really want the satisfaction of clicking that!

another round of accounts are sending out friend requests. BE GONE THOTS!!

I got another one today. Thanks Mods for keeping on it

Hold up. Are you telling me there are no hot young singles in my area who are especially interested in me? My confidence is ruined, Tater.

I haven't seen anything else particularly suspicious come up since I last posted. Also, mods don't get the reports. So if you see someone particular, please let one of us know and MM is a one man WAM sweatshop.

Thanks PJ. And thanks to everyone else for the *hundreds* of flags that you send in once these people/bots shows up. Especially if I had to be away for a day or two, I couldn't do this without you all.

I've already got flood protection on inboxing, but I'm still tweaking that so that less gets through once a bot does get on. I also have mass content removal abilities, which I use all the time to clear messages they've sent, etc. But there's still a lot of work to do, especially in preventing the flood of friend requests and other things. Ultimately I want to allow community consensus automatically cause the appropriate action to happen... maybe next year.

Thanks again UMD for all your help.
