a spammer wouldn't take the time to figure that out.

"Flooding" or "Man in the middle" type attacks was done by elmagnoon, and this is the exact approach he'd use.

Dunno if one should encourage that crazy guy on the music thread and download those movies on a hard disc, some are quite tempting to have for those boring hot summer nights when there's nothing interesting on TV.

Sorry folks, am having a hard job keeping up with the spammer in the Love & Marriage section if I delete 20, it is posting another 20 right now.

I am really busy for the next few days so apologies if it becomes overwhelming in there.

Unfortunately I do not have any capacity to ban people or mass delete. Each post has to be individually deleted.

shanta someone needs to be in here who can ban, this is getting silly now, where is Amr and who the hell is Oscar anyway? Sammy and Neal buggered off years ago, we need a mod that has power to zap!

Don't apologize mate, you have enough on and you're in a really shitty situation on here.

Slap Amr ffs.

It's better to turn the board off completely than let comercial spammers take them for free.

That's not going to happen shanta, there are more and more every day now as they know it's unmoderated for the most part, there will be more and this board will be passed round to any other spammers as an easy target.

I think Amr made you mod? then he has more powers and whoever made him mod then he needs to get in touch with them and get them to do something, or appoint someone who can.

It's a shame to see this vanish into a spam nesting site after all these years but I can't be arsed to sift through anymore. [Frown]

edit, the little bastage is in there spamming away as we speak!

My the fleas of a thousand camels infest it's armpits and it's arms grow to short to scratch! [Mad]

@Kalila megatons of spam - if you look in the Marriage section you will see!

Much much worse than ever before - posting every 3 minutes somewhere on ES - I think it must be one person using multiple computers or sharing the sign on with others - or even a bot of some sort don't ask me what!

Yeah! Have now deleted all mr disant's spams posted in love/marriage section dated 29th May (Egypt time for those in different zones who think I'm lying [Wink] )

And now, have deleted all his posts in that section right from when he started up to now.

Obviously he will be posting all night and tomorrow but i've done what I can for now!

Does anyone know how to archive this thread off ES?

http://www.egyptsearch.com/forums/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=2;t=020222;p=1

It's the one with over 2000 posts in it as the revolution unfolded.

I ask because I will be away for a couple of days and if disant & co start posting their spam on this section of the forum it will be lost and it would be such a shame as it is 'living history'.

(note that the posts appear to have got jumbled up time wise with page 1 showing May 25th and the first post being someway into the thread - but never mind!)

Religion section is now killed off as are a number of other sections, and I think Love & Marriage is almost dead.

If they do hit this section, then I am outta here.

Due to the overwhelming nature of the spam problem,
I will not be deleting anymore spam in the forums I mod.

This will be my last post on ES.

Expiration date for this forum is next February. Dunno what's gonna happen after that.

But I think I am gonna post still on here no matter what. Somehow I already feel like Captain Edward Smith holding on to the Titanic ship although I know it's sinking. [Wink]

I am a veteran poster and I feel it's my 'duty' to stay on board. Overall I had a good time on here. 7+ years of posting.

Duty? your duty over the last seven plus years is to go on and on about an elaborate fantasy that you just branch out.

No proof you ever lived in Egypt, I'd think over 3 years you would have some momento of some sort. No photos proving you've ever been in Egypt and now you are onto an extra two biological children and two adoptees that are total fantasy.

This is why I spend more time reading and posting on Egypt forums that are in Arabic.

I am not going through and requoting all this.

My photos of me with my relatives in Egypt (including my daughter) were stolen from my email account then posted on ES against my wishes by you know who sometime in March of 2006.

Since that time I will never feel comfortable posting anything of a private nature. This doesn't seem to stop Anastasia, because in fact most of what she posts of a personal nature is fantasy.

What do I have to be jealous of? Seriously!

Why don't you and akshar go back to making moonshine to stay drunk she has fermenting in a suite bathroom that has been empty (rent free) since the revolution. (sarcasm)

Seriously I don't know how you or akshar have managed to afford getting drunk since your incomes have gone into a free fall.

1 photoshopped pic of you the opposite end of the pic to your claimed daughter is not proof that was your daughter, nor that you were in Egypt.

Of course you don't know Sono, you would not know how to run a successful business. Your linkedin profile shows how how your career is the pits, a bit like your life.

That's so typical of you, sonomod. The ship is sinking and even then you are squabbling with the last members on here.

What a shame for you that ES is going down and you will have to find a new playground for your pitiful attacks since the ET moderator won't let you have your way on there - thanks god.

You are one stupid cow. Feel free to continue wasting your sh#tty life in Goonieland, goat girl hahahaaaaa!!!! [Big Grin]
