I’ve recently been getting messages on my shoutbox that say “Good site. Thanks!” and that’s it. I’m assuming that these people were trying to get free plugs for their websites or something, seeing as how their nicknames were hyperlinked. I’ve changed the settings so that only registered users can use the shoutbox (located at the bottom of the page). Sorry for the inconvenience this may cause anyone, but actions must be taken to prevent the misuse of things I have here.
–UPDATE–
I’ve had to completely remove the live shoutbox from my website temporarily. It seems that these websites are using automated scripts to essentially “hack” into my shoutbox and leave a message even though they are not a registered user (and therefore not allowed to enter text). Hopefully I can find a way to get around this and bring the shoutbox back. I may even try to find a different location for it.
