i've added a captcha weeks ago, but seems like the bot just keeps coming in. Kindly report spams here and i'll see what i can do about it. To moderators, please do not delete them.

Perhaps the ones posting now were ones that registered previously and are only just now posting? A quick removal of all members with 0 posts may fix it. I'm sure you know what you're doing though Tongue

The MuDDy_PaNDa is a new animal. He has been created by the breeding of a panda and a makrura together. Their breeding had created a strange animal covered in mud.

They target SM boards quite a bit more than other forums because the API it utilizes is easy to manipulate.

easier for bots to propagate on forums than other sites.

Posting a pic of a spam bot is the same as quoting it. Both is forbidden, isn't it?  Huh?
