INTJ Forum got its first spam bot advertisement today. Thanks to all the members that promptly reported the thread. Please continue to report any spam advertisements you see on the forum. I will adjust the registration security to make sure this doesn't become a regular occurrence.

vB 3.7 has a great new spam too removal tool. Even if a spammer got on and posted 30 posts before he was caught, all of their posts could be removed at once and the member banned. It's awesome.

I used to be an administrator of a Korean forum before. When it became quite popular, getting rid of the ads became a real pain-in-my-ass (sometimes, more than ten per day! imagine!). Compared to what happened at that point, the security of the INTJ forum is pretty impressive. :thumbsup:
