  • The board is being attacked by Russian bots.

    Last week we had a bogus post from some "chica" proclaiming to be a divorcee from a board member... Disappointed by dating sites, wanted to be contacted, posted a link for more photos and to contact, etc. It was promptly deleted and the user was banned.

    Since then, we've been getting a lot of random phishing emails through the "Contact Us" link on the board and on Monday we had more than 200 new account requests, the vast majority of which are bogus. It appears to be all coming from Russia.

    Think it is time to upgrade the board software to something newer and more secure. Please don't click on any links posted by someone you don't recognize.

    For now we have disabled new registrations until we decide how to upgrade. Please PM this account if you have any concerns.

    that they’re not IG’s Facenutz Russian stripper friends?
    Or maybe #MoscowMitch sent them over to fvck with BigLittle?
    John Erlichman, one of President Richard Nixon's closest aides, has admitted America's "War on Drugs" was a hoax designed to vilify and disrupt "the antiwar left and black people" when it was launched in 1971.

      I hope we can have this resolved by October, in time for the deluge of fake Viking fan accounts

          Couldn’t be them — they’ve been busy on a summer cultural tour of NYC at Sbarro, Herald Square, and the Statue of Liberty. Not to mention they can’t type because their hands are full of designer wares from Bergdorf Goodman and FILA apparel IG got them.
