Someone named "FuntKlakow" have been registering on thousands and thousands of forums in one day. what.gif I have no idea what this might be, but according to some it might be something nasty. So I just want to warn you all about this.

It seems bots are quite adept at posting on boards if guest posting is allowed. It's relatively unusual for them to register.

The thing that confuses me is, why register on all the boards unless he's planning on doing something to them NOW? If he just leaves all those registrations out there, that's plenty of time for admins to cotton on, and by the time he's got a flaw to exploit his IP will be blocked all around the web.

My guess is that he's setting up a spam network, or just looking for boards where the mods aren't paying attention.
