Yeah, all this fuzzy bunny spam will probably apear again. We need true warriors of justice to make these low-life spammers answer for their crimes. It also ticks me off that they are trying to ruin the reputation of the new devs and Hawken as well, considering these new forums have barely been up for a week, and there are some new faces around who might spread word that 'OMG dose Hawken forums are full of fuzzy bunny spammers and nobody cares. These new devs suck'. That is exactly what we don't need right now.

Given the quick response I'm not sure it's even necessary. Then again, I never witnessed the original Baba Ji

Baba Ji promised us love and happiness through miracle cures.
It was all a lie.
All he brought was pain and suffering.

Trust me, it got REAL bad. To the point where all sections of the old Hawken forums was overflowing with Baba-Ji threads.

Baba Ji was a Homebrew Indian Medicine Remedy spambot that would flood the forums horrible with the same posts and ads all the time.
It wasn't fun.
But it was vashikiran.

To clarify, Baba Ji spammed everything from soccer threads to some literal 'fuzzy bunny' about black magic. Those threads were everywhere, so much so that the community had to continue reposting in multiple threads to keep afloat over the baba ji threads. This was back when Hawken forums only had one mod patrolling the forums.

Just hit the alert post button, it emails an alert :) I'll give it a few more days and turn up the spam protection, so you'll only see 1 or 2 the most of those.

Not sure which one you are using. I might suggest using Akimest and StopForumSpam as the top two. For a third layer, would be using Project HoneyPot.
