12 threads on the Flash Player Forum       Question: Why can't we Flag these "alphabet" Spammers??? Isolate them when they Register?

Is there some rule that they be allowed to start a thread? They are always Spammers.

Thanks,

Kick his behind off the forums, please.

Clearly this info is being managed.  I've been seeing the threads from the spammers listed systematically disappearing.

All I can say to Adobe is thanks, and do remember to take some time from fighting the alligators to try to drain the swamp.

If their objective is to move up in the Search engines it probably doesn't make any difference whether it's an active or inactive Forum. Seems like a boring activity in my opinion. Do they get paid by the topic they are spamming about? All I know is that they are a menace.

Well, thanks to Admin, we are Spam free for now:-)

Have a good evening/night!

Yes, there are people who charge money for "Search Engine Optimization".

Gaming the internet at our detriment for commercial gain seems not to be the worlds most above-board occupation, methinks.

And it's hard to imagine Google doesn't recognize this bogus activity and exclude it anyway.  But they're not talking about how their search engine rankings work, so no one knows for sure...

Not sure what to think but I would definitely suspect that these are all the same person.

That's an awful lot of first time posters that are answering a question about nothing to do with the product.

Yeah. All in the thread I posted. Just noticed that they all signed up today as well. The thread just keeps on growing.
