Wiped out a bunch of spam accounts and changed registration question

[Dan Druff]

Looked like my registration question got out to enough spammers to where it was common knowledge.

I changed the question, so this should slow them down a bit.

I also knocked out about 100 spammers which registered in the past 6 months. Most hadn't posted yet.

If somehow I accidentally killed your legit account here, let me know and I'll restore your account. Use the Contact Us form at the bottom, or just re-register.

Next step - ban UNKewlJ.

When the sum total of all your existence becomes a Lie - time to stop the flow of nonsense.

Not to mention all the n words.

What's the procedure for having a forum stalker assigned to me?

My memory is not my best attribute, so I think it would be fun to see reminders of previous stuff I posted.

[kewlJ]

But dawg adds so much to the forum.

BTW, we don't even get the ridiculous gambling claims anymore, like $115k in wins over the last two days. He posts that at WoV, where no one is allowed to say much, so no one even responds.

Here he knows everyone would jump on his shit, so he doesn't even bother. All he does here is troll.

[MDawg]

There are two reasons why UNKewlJ’s stories are so bland and generic. One is because he’s lying. He can’t flesh out what he never did and simply lifted from what he read or heard. The second is that he has all the personality of a wooden rocking chair and couldn’t come up with much interesting to say period.

Oh snap.

Thank you Dan. I was thinking about posting something like,"What is up with the massive influx of Spam Bots lately? But was remiss to not actually post it.

[Dan Druff]

Well some of the bots are still coming. Must be using AI to figure out my registration questions.

Sucks when 2025 technology beats my 2010 method of stopping spammers.

I've still got parts of the flu (had it since 12/30), but when I get better I will investigate the IPs and other device/browser info on these bots, and see if I can just stop them dead at time of signup. I just hate doing that because I'll occasionally get false positives and shut people out here.

I have a bit of the Flu too. Coughing, sore throat, sinus problems, had a hoarse voice. I started having a sore throat on Wednesday December 25(Not a very good Christmas present. and then it gradually escalated into the flu. For 10 days I have had the Flu. I rarely get SERIOUSLY sick.

The last time I was SERIOUSLY sick Covid hadn't existed yet. People have reported getting sick or having been sick recently. I went to Google and Google gave links to Bird Flu. You and I must have the Bird Flu.

There are also reports of Covid part 2 circling China as we speak but Health Officials are on top of the Covid part 2 circling China exactly 5 years after Covid part 1 started circling China and trying hard to not let Covid part 2 become a HUGE global problem like Covid part 1 did exactly 5 years ago.

Change the registration questions to things that can only be answered correctly by a human who has lurked long enough.

lives in the _____ (tunnels)

fake _____ sessions (baccarat)

_____ the floor (shitting)

A bot could not answer these correctly.

[MDawg]

Nor could anyone who is not already a member. Duh.

There are no lurkers here, this is not that kind of forum. The only lurkers are bots.

Disagree, more than a few of the posters from WoV, including current/former Mods visit here for their own amusement and disgust.

But for the most part they don’t join or post other than OD very rarely. You know Darky Oz still visits. And they know exactly what goes on here.

Dawg has never understood that quite a number of people from WoV, including mods, do lurk or read this forum, along with other APs, casino personnel. Some of us know, because we get PMs from some of them. Dan Druff has even confirmed this and he certainly would know. And this is exactly why dawgs Jekyll/Hyde routine of trolling here and acting like a legit member at WoV just doesn't fly.

Of course things like reporting 5 winning days so far in 2025, all 50k wins, totaling over $300k doesn't help his cause either. Everyone except someone like Tasha can see through THAT bullshit.

[kewlJ]

Speaking of WoV, if you take a quick glance at the top threads at anytime, you will see that forum is now far away from a gambling forum as well. A little bit of sports betting talk, but it is mostly $5 bettors talking about their nickel/dime bets and getting "Boosted odds". Nothing wrong with that, but it isn't real money making gambling.

Automonkey, a real AP, who is still relatively new to WoV, tries at times to talk real advantage play and gambling, but it just doesn't go far. AutoMonk did post a recent trip report to Reno, which I found 100 times more interesting than Dawgs shit, just because it was real. I personally would have advised him against the Reno trip, if I had had the chance to, since he now lives and plays Vegas. Hopefully there are no repercussions for him in Vegas from that trip.

I have always thought dawgs agenda was to make a mockery of WoV and destroy it in the process. With many of the real players gone or have gone silent, or post less frequently, some of them having left during an exodus when dawg started, I would say he has succeeded or is well on his way to doing so.

No real loss. That forum had run its course. Just a little surprised Shackleford allowed that to happen. But I think we all realize, he just hasn't given a shit, once he got paid.

[Rob.Singer]

There's zero chance WoV people who are not posters here would be reading a forum like this. First, by and large they are far too sensitive and sissified. And, why in fuck would any of them travel over here knowing the threads are all packed either with kew's lies, or him always trying to have the LV title "Man About Town" bestowed upon him?

Casino personnel and so-called "AP's" like kew claims to be, reading this place is also a laugh. That's just another part of his forum-concoction. He needs it to be that way so he can claim how so many "AP's" read his nonsense and lies and as such, feel better about his pathetic little self. And all his casino exec friends?......

The other goofball heard from.

Dan Druff who has access to Ip addresses and information has confirmed such people do lurk here. Know-it-all Rob Singer says they don't. Who to believe?


This "Man About Town" label that Rob has bestowed upon me is interesting. When have I EVER talked much or posted pictures about what is happening in Vegas? Maybe a little bit during things like the superbowl or F1 race, just because as someone living in close proximity to the strip, I am inconvenienced. Maybe if I read something about a new stadium or casino, I will mention it, but what I mention is minimal. I think Rob has me confused with his buddy and partner dawg, who as "pope of Las Vegas" posts pictures of everything going on, like he is a tour guide.

But Rob can do and say what he wants. Basically it is Rob pouting about how he doesn't and never could live in Vegas. This town would have eaten a sucker, degenerate gambler like Rob alive.

Boz, you think D.Oz, a registered member here, could possibly read anything about him posted anywhere and not respond? In that respect he’s as hopelessly feeble as UNKewlJ.

Which is why he’s obviously not lurking.

What is your fucking problem with DarkOz? The guy gave you a free roll for several thousand dollars. And didn't even complain when the "witness" Shackleford was prohibited from saying what he witnessed because you went behind his back and had Shackleford sign a NDA.

So what is your problem? Oh Darkoz doesn't believe your bullshit...is that it? So you troll him trying to discredit him, same as you do me, Axelwolf and others that don't believe you? You are a piece of work, and not in a good way.

[MisterV]

Everyone except someone like Tasha can see through THAT bullshit.

Careful with insuting Karen, KJ: Dan is on his high horse at the moment and might throw you in the briar patch.
