Jon;
Your playtest report are is full of penile-growth spam and related rubbish. Just thought i’d let you know.

bleh. Looks like most of it’s streamed in over the last day or two …
I’ll have to have a look at the filters on the submission forms there. I don’t think I got all the same guards on that input that I did on the comments input (not that comments are problem free either …)
One way to dent all this is probably to require a login first. But, that’s yet another barrier to entry, and when we’re looking for feedback …

INMHO, make them register and login – i’m an admin on an expat discussion board, and the unregistered forums are a never-ending source of problems. If people want to give feedback, they will register.

pushed out some updates, re-filtered the existing playtest reports … cleaned up now …

You have spam appearing in some of the forums as well.

You noticed that too, I had high hopes it was somehow related to the game.

Even I noticed the spam and I’m as observant as the proverbial half giant.

Ugh. at least one bot has made it through the whole process of signing up for an account—you have to be logged in to post here.
going to have to go back and look into the enhancing the account creation guards… problem is, I dropped some of them because they were preventing legitimate users from signing up ….

Well if we, as a community just stay vigilant we can simply delete them as they appear, or is that too much work?

True ‘nuff. So far, only one’s gotten through
