Yep.

There seems to be scripted/automated sign-up for nearly 200 fake-users within the last four or five days.


Got such spam PM today morning, too. One forum was filled up today morning with faked forum posts, too.

I think and hope, that the Admins of this icecast forum are up and fighting against meanwhile. We should keep calm and put messages and posts to trash (if not originated from the admins themselfs).

Greez,

#timo aka konsolenritter

(EDIT: As i can see, the admins killed already most of the fake-users. I think there are 10 or 20 over, still. For instance the user ShuffFek registered yesterday and is the fake-user that sent me spam PM this morning.)

Still getting new fake-users. (luckily fewer than the last days.)

Personally i think they've hacked/broken the captcha (confirmation code) used for the forum. Crying or Very sad
