Xonotic Forums

My name is Andrey Stepanov aka "adem". But mainly i play by the tag "adem<3russia" (guess why? ). I love Warsow, Promode, QuakeWorld and now Xonotic. My favorite gametypes are Duel and DM.

Thanks Devs for the stylish and funny game. I hope it will gain some popularity in a near future!

p.s. I would like to ask admins to rename my forum's account to "adem". I'm not a spammer

Hola adem!

I checked the last 10 newcomers here in forums.xonotic just to see who has the same problem:

Quote:

• rad dj flimflam - ok!
  
• adem4ik - rename my forum's account to "adem". I'm not a spammer
  
• 0siris - ok!
  
• 3zekiel - my IGN is "Sir" but the forums said I matched the info of a known spammer? I dunno.
  
• Triaxen - ok!
  
• Aznrith - ok!
  
• Xeno Daphron - Could some nice mod change my username to just Daphron?
  
• KoonerX9999 - ok!
  
• EmmEffKay - ok!
  
• Micha - Wouldn't mind if an admin renamed my account to Micha, I promise not to spam
  

This is not a representative survey, but still, a lot questions comming up:

1. Is this right calling newcomers a spammer? Not even registered and being called a spammer is pretty hard dudes heh, especially seeing the 4 of 10 newcomers are called like that!
   
2. How effective works the anti-spam filter? Does this really prevent spammers at all? How does forums.xonotic will looks like if this filter is disabled?
   
3. Does this anti-spam filter really discourage spammers? I would try that in 100 another ways to get in and probably with success D:
   

Anyway, welcome to the xonotic forums adam you silly little spammer! Enjoy spamming every single thread which xonotic provides! =D

Edit: Oops, 4 of 10, not 5 of 10! Also I am probably wrong with Xeno Daphron, he maybe just wants a change.

Welcome to Xonotic!

Hello!

Hi there. I've seen you on the Warsow forums.

Hello spammer.

Hellow my fellow warsowian

Soelen, we know there's a problem and a fix is in the works. I watch every thread, if anyone wants to change their name because the antispam plugin filtered it, I do it for them. But if they don't ask explicitly, I ask them to confirm. If I missed any, do tell them that they can PM me with a new nickname of their choice. I just changed Adem's.
