There's another mass spamming tonight from the hair extension people. I would suggest that the spam button "rules" be fine tuned again.
I'm guessing that at the moment a poster is blocked if 5 or more different people hit the spam button (maybe it takes more than 5 I don't know).
The problem late at night is that there aren't as many member online and even though one person (as in me tonight) can hit the spam button on 5 or 10 posts from the same person this apparently doesn't end the spam.
It might be worth changing the rules so that one person can stop a particular spammer as long as they are spamming 5 or more posts.
This particular person is just posting to every outstanding thread.
Late night? It's morning/noon in Europe :~

Another spambot/spammer is attacking BLF. They can be pretty annoying. So that people later will know what I am talking about, this post is all over our forum at the time of this writing:
EDIT: I just broke all of the links. Every part in bold was a link to their website.

Looks more like a manual cut'n'paste attack to me? I could write a better spambot than THAT.
I think you're right. And now it looks like they quit. They spammed 18 threads with a total of 23 posts over a 14 minute period.

Cheneeee joined yesterday and had 57 posts already. He's trying to sell Coach bags in a budget flashlight forum. What is he thinking?

Is this how CPF began the journey to the darkside? Idiots spamming and CPF trying to come up with ways to stop it. I hope we are able to kill the spam without losing the community feeling we have here.
Hmm. Next step would be to create a technical solution to prevent spam from being accepted.
For instance, generate a hash of each message over some minimum length (so
messages don't trigger). Then just keep these hash signatures in memory for a few hours (to keep the collision checking quick) and dump any new messages that collide.
You could defeat this by changing a single letter of the comment, yes, but it would defeat pure cut/paste attacks.
Ughhhh, Cheneee is gone now with all of his bags. Sorry for the inconvenience!

I'm glad you finally "bagged" him lol

What is a coach bag anyway?
Good idea! There are implementations of algorithms that are designed to find near-matches (such as simhash and probably lots more, considering that there's a lot of interest in academia). Simhash, in particular, is actually pretty fast, relatively speaking of course.
Also, while we're talking site issues, I thought I'd bring up this thread. NeoGeo discovered that a blf.cc.cz link in an old post of mine now points to a domain squatter site. NoScript and a custom filter list actually blocked the redirection attempt in FF but when I opened the site in IE (in a separate sandbox), it redirected to a spam site. I suspect this affects all old links that point to blf.cc.cz (ie. the old site). Is there any way to re-write old links in the database so that they point to the new site? Getting the old subdomain back would obviously be easier, but I suspect the spammers won't be too happy to give it up and cc.cz is notorious for ignoring abuse cases.
