    Hey staff,

    I want to know why there are out the blue so many spam bots made in Vietnam? Please, give an honest answer and do not try to go around with misleading and BS replies.

    I've been a Mod on other forums before that use the same coding as this one. Plus, I've been for a long time here in order to know that spam bots haven't been such a big problem as they seem to be now.

    Could kindly give a good damn explanation about the current situation? It's annoying to see those alien symbols in every single thread.

    I've heard info from different random birdies, but an official statement is always the best way to confirm the rumors.

    Cheers

    Spammers and hackers found away around the security. Computers and internet are an arms race too. Companies and sites code better security, hackers get around them, security is upgraded, hackers get better.

    I would agree with you if there would be actual anti-hacking shield in Gamez. Besides, I don't believe that forum shares the same server with the server.

    Also, calling someone a hacker when there is no anti-hack shield, just makes my laugh.

    For the end, this thread is about the spam bots which is on forum issue, not in-game one.

    Don't blame me if I will break the screen of the PC that I use at office. It will be the spam bot that made me do it.

    Well, it does seem weird to me that only these kinds of spambots appear here. If no one can understand crap of what they are saying, it might be something in the forum screwing their message up, or at least that's what I think happens..

    If you scroll down, you'll see Spam-O-Matic. this handy little tool is a database of spammers that we have connected to, and when members try joining, they get compared to this blacklist that then either lets them through or denies registration. When there's a bot that joins our forums and it is not in the database, Forum Mods can tag them as Spambots, spam-o-matic gets rid of any trace of them in our forums and creates an entry in the database so other forums won't have to deal with it.

    Spam-o-Matic is also a double-edged blade, since you could do this to anyone. For this reason, only very few people have access to this tool, and they might not always be around, which is why you would be seeing a lot of spambots not being taken care of or taking their time to disappear.

    If this is not what you're asking, then I don't know the answer to your question =P

    Thanks for your reply, it is very helpful and making clear how the system works. =)

    however, what I ask is why there are so many of them, from one certain area and out of sudden.

    I agree, it pisses the heck out of me. Not even my girlfriend manages to piss me off when she is on her period as much as those bots do.

    Yes the forums and game server itself are separate but they both do have the same principal. Gamez is run on Vbulletin which has it's own strength and weaknesses to hackers. Whether it be people that just figure out the password to get to the admin CP, "script kiddies" or professionals with a great knowledge of coding, hacking and security on websites, games, and just the whole internet in general are still just a big arms race. Companies, and sites are constantly looking for bugs, loopholes, etc and patching them, and the hackers and those with less than good intentions are always looking for ways to get around those fixes. Just like in the real world. One country gets big guns, the other gets bullet proof armor, the first country then gets armor piercing rounds, and it goes on from there.
