I don’t know if e-mails sticking around gives adbots what they want, but if they do should the spoiler quoting the last one here be deleted?
viewtopic.php?p=35070658#p35070658

Edit in reply to Lamoni below: Exactly, and this was related to an adbot, so I am confused as to what I did wrong?

Got it. Thank you very much, Araraukar. It is easier on us when people provide us a link to the nation of the adspammer in question, than a link to their spam.

At this point, why don't we just ban Russian players?
February 25, 1983 TinaMN fact: Our economy is half as large as that of the USSR. It is roughly equal to that of the UK, which seems to think that they're superior to us.

Apart from being simply wrong, it wouldn't stop these adbots. Just because they post in Russian doesn't mean they're FROM Russia.

Example, NK lies and says they are democratic and are not, the US lies and says we are free yet we incarcerate millions for a medical plant. See we are basically a larger more populated North Korea.
