Love is in the Air....


(Source- and additional Valentine's here!)




Edit: I have updated the rules:

ADDENDUM TO RULE THREE (3): Because I do NOT want another instance of shit that happened this month, and the shit that happened in @anonrising, Fandom Politics are NOT ALLOWED. This includes, but is not limited to:
  •          Anime
  •          Fanfiction/Fanart 
  •         Anti/Proshipping war bullshit      
*These subjects almost inevitably bring up Anti/Proship bullshit and there are folks on both sides who might be triggered by certain content, or feel dismissed by various argument points on both sides. As a result, THEY ARE  NOT ALLOWED. This site is for DRAGON DRAMA, not your Pro/Anti shipping bullshit. Take it to fandomwank or fandom_secrets or whatever other platform they're using nowadays.

Since that thread popped up, it brought also an additional benefit of closed reg up again. It would keep mostly the spambots out, because well if reg was closed they where unable to "attack". Unless the wave was in the welcome week, which would have been unfortunate.

But most modern forums would put your account under heavy scrutiny the first ten posts and prevent you from posting links or PMing people and filling out a captcha the first few times. Sure it is not a foolproof way to do that, but it helps. But FR is VERY LACKING compared to a modern forum in security sadly.

Remember when you could not post the url of kanojo or how the database site was called? lmao they have time for that, but bots spamming porn and viruses? Sure go ahead.

blocking a single specific URL/domain is easy. spammers and phishers use a MASSIVE variety of links and domains. i completely agree that FR should have more protections in place to prevent this kind of abuse but it requires a much more sophisticated spam detection system than blocking ONE domain.
