Forum member Allstar has been inactive since 2009, and only has one post. Therefore, I believe a spammer hacked his account, and is sending the personal messages. I have notified the administrative team, and we are waiting for the forum owner to disable his account, or change the password, et cetera. ;)

That makes sense.

Yea I banned him yesterday after reading this thread. Thanks!

I don't think his account was compromised though, as the IP from the PMs he sent was the same as his registration IP. :shrug:

Thank you, Quadz. :)

He was dormant since 2009. Perhaps he was a 'sleeper cell.' :wtf:

:hehe:
