I never got spam from creep.im. But I hear that you can make lots of money with spam. You just need to help some oncle of a princess to transfer some money, right? Where can I sign up?

creep.im
I heard creep.im is on some spam black lists, and I wonder if those black lists are working at all. people are still whining every now and then...
-
Martin
Not everyone is using those.
-
Martin
The preferred solution would be to stop the spam and get creep.im delisted.

And who's gonna help that oncle from this princess? Sounds selfish to just stop their effort for help
-
creep.im
not sure if you aware, but creep.im is available in Tor
-
creep.im
that's why it's tricky to stop abusive users
-
grrras
Don't you get reports so that you just delete the given account?
-
creep.im
I never get any reports
-
creep.im
operators are lazy
-
grrras
Well then no wonder.
-
creep.im
it's simpler to just whine here
-
creep.im
ah, wait, I got a report from Ge0rG once
-
creep.im
was it a year ago Ge0rG?
-
creep.im
I swear, I don't remember
-
grrras
So we can just fix the issue by sending reports to you I guess. If you see spam, report to admin.

And you didn't read your emails.

Oh something I also noticed: some admins say you should report to their jid, but they block every message that comes from a person not in their roster.

creep.im: > not sure if you aware, but creep.im is available in Tor > that's why it's tricky to stop abusive users Forcing them through the process of asking nicely in a support chat to unrestrict their account seems to be working fine for yax.im. Or would it be too time-consuming due to the number of Tor registrations you get?

dismail.de did the same in the past. Also available via Tor✎ -
Ge0rG
mjk: it works because only a few yax.im accounts are registered throuh proxies.

Ge0rG: maybe that's _because_ of this policy ;)
-
Ge0rG
mjk: well, it's not about stopping privacy-aware users, it's about the thouands of bot registrations.
-
mjk
Sure, I mean could be spammers are just deterred by that in the first place
-
mjk
Assuming they know your server employs such a restriction
-
Ge0rG
I think they realized after the first few thousand account regs
-
mjk
It's working! :thumb-up:
-
mjk
A non-technical implementation of CAPTCHA is still one
-
mjk
And is probably best for privacy
-
Ge0rG
what I do is neither CA nor PT, it's just CHA.
-
mjk
Right :)
