or y'know, actually try to combat spam yourself instead of making this long process of registering. what if i'm a new player and i don't have a gd account?? what if i'm playing the lite version? what if i just want to drop a question? registering for a forum should never be this complicated (plus adding three layers of bullshit to the mix). stop being so lazy and actually do your job as mods. You look like a butthurt person lol. Anyway, you're wrong in most aspects. If staff were to combat spam, spammers would just be eager to spam more. Spammers try to find the easiest way to spam. Why does our forum have to be spammed? Those three layers of bullshit will actually make most spammers disappear. And this forum was probably made for Geometry Dash, not Geometry Dash Lite. Who would drop a question about Can't Let Go? If you're so curious, 2 dollars is less than a hamburger. Buy yourself a nice game, and if you're broke, which is probably not going to happen, get yourself an APK. There are plenty.

Thanks for the mentions, I banned them. I decided to silently turn off registration around a week ago since I figured the activity has died down quite a bit but looks like the spammers figured out somehow. Or maybe the registration really was filtering them out. I'll think about turning registration back on if this keeps happening.

I understand that you had already been tagged before in my post, but I thought that more spammers coming through may point to a security issue (like the one last year where spammers posing as forum staff sent fake warnings and inappropriate images to legit accounts en masse) so I thought a second tag would draw more attention.

Hey guys! It's been a while since I've made an announcement To help combat spam accounts on the forums, we have made a few revisions to how our registration system works. In addition to restricted registration, you must put your Geometry Dash username into the request message box when registering for the forums, and send a message to our account in GD (GDForum). Hopefully this will decrease the amount of spam accounts found in the forums! Note: This (obviously) does not affect existing users as they have already passed registration Ciao, RyanAB why not do 2 3 2 phase caththas

Please don't do it again. Locking thread.
