Unwanted/offensive private messages

Recently there have been some complaints from members who have received unwanted, offensive or spam Private Messages.  If you find your inbox containing a message of this nature, please copy and paste the text (with sender's name, PM title, etc.) into a new private message to one of the site moderators: Leskidd, MsGulp or Koma, and we'll review them and deal with the issue as appropriate. thanks

Yes, I've received

several unwanted PMs from someone named Zarathustra.  Apparently, she doesn’t like the new mandatory avatar rule here.  And she’s raving like a crazy woman about it (christ, what a bitch)! 

 

Anyway, just thought I’d let ya know!

Enough please

Msgulp had to create a new thread and move the old one because of the off-topic posts.  Please do not start them again here, this is for serious issues regarding offensive private messages.  If it looks like we don't take this issue seriously then offenses are going to go un-reported.

Yes, we know we have a spambot.

Actually, two in two days, so far. We are addressing the situations as they arise. If you receive any unwanted PMs, or any PMs you believe to be spam, then please let one of the mods (me, Harpy, Koma, MsWoo, msgulp) know. Do not click the links in the spam, as that may trigger more spam PMs to you. Simply report the spam and we will take care of the user. The same advice applies to any abusive PMs you may receive.

Many thanks.

Heh Heh

Heh, earlier I went to the site they're spamming, registered, and made a polite request for them to stop PM spamming other sites (I didn't mention AE).  I just went to see if anyone responded to my post and -- I was banned for "drama".  LOL!

Well, I tried to request they stop politely.  I'm so sad I won't be able to visit the...Purse forums.  Cause, you know, that's one facinating topic...

Well, one should expect drama...

...from someone with the name "Harpy."

Okay, fine, off-topic, I know.
