Let's all welcome TeenLesbianSex to the cellar. I, for one, look forward to her first contribution.

I'm hoping Bruce can provide us with some background because I'm not going to google that one, thank you very much.

A mean omelette should have a strong "second act" ...

Things I learned from my wife, #397:
To make French toast, start with French bread that has gone hard as a rock. It won't turn mushy.

It's getting scary-bad. Here's a screen shot of a Cellar admin page: it's a search for the newest user registrations. I've whited out user info from the three that may -- MAY -- be legit. Notice that all of these are today. There are another twenty from today below that.
It's basically a tsunami of people in third-world countries, attempting to spam. ![]() |

This may change.... apparently the "captcha" (the little graphic with barely readable text that you have to type in to prove you're not a computer program) that Google uses has been cracked, so there may be an uptick in automated gmail spam. At least until they change to a different captcha generator.

Some of those seem obvious spammers. But how do you know all of them are? The last three for instance.
I understand that some of them are obviously third world...but does that mean they are automatically spam? Also, if their username is potentially not tht of a spammer but their email seems to be of a trader, that could mean they use the same email for trading as they use for personal. Just a thought. |

You don't, Dana. That's why it takes so much time to look up their IP to find where they are from, then look up other forums where they have used the same user name or email. Keep in mind, a spammer can't make a living by just breaking into the Cellar. They have to score a bunch of sites and usually work in that manner, meaning they approach a group of sites using the same info.
See if they have registered in a slew of forums in one or two days. See if they are lying about their location when they registered. See if they have posted a homepage in their registration and if so what is it? Is it a link to a porn site or are they selling something? It's often a judgment call, and I try to err in their favor. Of course if they are a dog, they are automatically in. ![]()
