We've been getting hit around 4 times a day with attempted SPAM attacks. The forums software has been working great. If you see anything weird, let someone, myself, or Rhaven, or Revelle-Fan know.

I once saw a funny looking smile emoji. I investigated it, That Emoji Smiley Face was 2 Mb.'s in size. It was a key logger virus. I did not erase it, as I did not know how deep it was embedded. The I.T. took care of it, apparently I had caught it fast, and it didn't have time enough to do anything. A keylogger Trojan Virus which will track everything typed into the forum, including sign in information, then that information is usually sold. It's not so much that we get attacked, but your I.S.P address could be, then you would get way too much SPAM and possibly virus attacks. This is true of every forum, or website that exist in the world, not only a problem of Zealotmodels.

Anything odd report it. Try to use the emoji's we have to reduce the chance of accidentally infecting the forum.. Thanks. ;)
