I fear the good Mr Heckler is a renowned forum spammer. He/she/it has tried to sign up to my forums and a google search shows them to be one time posters to literally hundreds of forums.

The plan is that when we've all said hello the spammer comes back and amends their profile with a url link to some Viagra web site etc and so massively boosts their Google rate.

http://www.stopforumspam.com/ipcheck/212.235.107.45 gives an idea of how busy this little chap is.

Therefore I've banned him and left the original post as a heads up.

You mean I gave a spammer a warm welcome to the forum!?


Good catch Smilo :D

I can't claim to be super clever about spotting him and uncovering his evil plot. He signed up to two of my forums with exactly the same name and 1st message, which sort of gave the game away :)
