this Book957 guy...

Yeah, its not for real. If you look at the signature, there's gambling advertisements, and he posts general nonsense.

Over on DSCtunerhaven, we got a guy named "shoe9383" who had the same stuff, its just an autospamming bot sorta deal.

That is some pretty impressive computer programming though, considering it isn't a real person.

I've been deleting all his posts that I can, and I'm waiting for an admin to ban & delete the guy.

We don't need that shit here :x

how does a bot manage to register?

Its pretty easy, like using autocomplete. We don't really have one of those "type in the code pictured in the image" deals to keep the auto-signing programs out...

wow.

did i miss much?

[shazapple]

Yeah, the bot fills in the required info and then set agreed=true and that pretty much sets them up.

Anyway, very simple way to fix this problem, and its worked 100% on my forums. Takes about 5 minutes to change
