[02:16:05] Another ABBW sock just popped up: https://loathsomecharacters.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:Contributions/My_channel_name [02:47:01] @Stewards if anyone is available to handle the above [02:47:43] I would've if you had sent a CentralAuth link [02:52:55] Here's the one I have open: https://absurdity.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/My_channel_name [02:55:40] not on Meta [02:56:26] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Special:CentralAuth/My_channel_name [13:42:08] Spam: https://sterbalssundrystudies.miraheze.org/wiki/Talk:Connecting_Democratic_candidates_and_organizations_to_donors_with_ActBlue's_Erin_Hill [13:51:09] deleted + blocked IP [16:41:45] I just busted a major spam IP range [16:41:53] over 100 accounts registered in the past 3 months [16:51:29] Maybe it would be worth it to develop a VPN/proxy detector so these ranges can be eliminated sooner [16:52:32] I don't think that's possible [16:52:47] at most you can detect open proxies automatically, but not much more [17:07:37] A detector might be able to be created using IPInfo's API, but their privacy policy is somewhat concerning [17:33:08] then that is an automatic concern [17:33:36] much the same with other massive detection tech, tends to have privacy implications but then, so does recaptcha and previously used google ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ [17:34:45] [1/2] he wasn't kidding about a major range [17:34:45] [2/2] https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/443926951292567562/1210278517246402630/image.png?ex=65e9fab4&is=65d785b4&hm=64600350ad54d7dfa6d8160d4b402beb251b58be15f83a5c967af99a4af152c6& [17:47:25] the biggest abusing host was "Biterika Group" in Russia [18:05:48] Probably a spam account: Kmnahidulislam [18:06:02] triggered AF8 on Meta [18:06:07] trying to create `K.M. Nahidul Islam` [18:06:44] I wouldn't lock per se [18:06:49] because that's a human doing it [18:06:58] Ah true [21:41:44] https://meta.miraheze.org/wiki/Main_page?curid=63788&diff=372457&oldid=329065 [21:41:47] hmmm [21:42:53] that user is redirecting everything to Main page [21:43:15] oh boy [21:43:17] @CVT ^ [21:43:46] and @Meta-Wiki Administrators [21:44:07] smite his ass [21:45:37] ima revert [21:46:10] looking and reverting at least [21:46:20] yeah rollbacker better suited [21:47:42] well [21:47:45] if Meta ever loads for me [21:47:55] great it did [21:49:53] donezo [21:49:58] now I just need a ban
