Suspect links flooding threads

Looks like a targeted attack of spam to kill forum discussion. What a waste of coding skills.

early on i explored the links and found they redirected to ad-driven relinking sites that pay users to drive traffic to their pages to view ads and popups after you attempt to click through. similiar to bad porn video streaming sites or old http warez days.

its just people trying to make money via a method that doesnt really work. you wont get enough people to use the links, and they only pay fractions of a cent per click

the only people naming money are the ones duping the advertisers into thinking their ads are really being seen
 
Here we go again

Your browser should show you a message like this if you have Google Safe Browsing turned on. You'd have to click See Details and then bypass this warning to load the site. The trackers do not load on this warning page.

If you have specifically turned safe browsing off then you won't see this warning, the page will load, and you might be fucked at that point.

Would highly, highly suggest installing uBlock Origin adblocker (desktop or FireFox Android). If you are on iOS, the Brave browser is a runner up. These will block a lot of malware elements of sites like these. You can make exceptions for sites not to ad block and as this one relies heavily on ads.

Don't block this site, please, as if you do it might not be here in the future. We would have to launch another site called pleasebringbackallthetits .com and that would be a sad day.
Not only that, if you hover over the links, your browser will show you the actual link it'll take you to. In Firefox (my browser), it shows on the lower left hand corner. Not perfect, but a good indicator if the link text shown on the post does not match the one shown by the browser on hover, then it's suspicious at best.
 
Thanos seems to be back again
:)
Posting crap links all over the place again.
New members didn't use to be able to post any links without it being held for review. Has something changed?
 
It's been 5 hours since this guy joined and he is still going at it. I get it, it's Saturday night, people(admins) are out and having fun. Is there a way to prevent 1 person from joining a forum and preventing them from spamming? Can new members be on probation for 5 to 10 post a day? Idk how these things work, just offering my opinion.
Delete what you are quoting.
 
Taken care of now guys.. this shouldn't happen again

So as long as it doesn’t load I’m good?
 
is there a way to add more hoops to register? or a invite only?
We can close registration to new members all together. But right now we have many systems in place to catch scammers/spammers.
