INVASION OF THE FORUMS SPAMMERS

by Catspaws

As I mentioned last week, the role-play forums are located at http://www.icatz.com/fed2. Of late, these forums have been the target of spammers, who seem to want to sell us lots of things that don't really have a lot to do with role-playing. (Well, unless you have a very odd imagination, but I really don't want to go there.)

I tried wiping the forums and replacing the legitimate posts that had been placed by Fedders. I also tried requiring anyone joining the forums to get admin approval before posting, but the mouse went on strike. So I got with Lynnea, and she has password protected the website. Anyone who wants to join the forum or even view it will have to use the following login and password:

Login: fed2roleplay
Password: catspaws

With luck, this should solve our spam problem, and we can now enjoy our forums free of the pests that caused the kitty such headaches over the last few weeks.
