How do we get rid of this applele character??

Question

Is he or she driving anyone else nuts but me? how did "it" sign up today and has the amount of points it does?

Answer 1

Yup love-share is anther one! It's just some stupid hacker. He's been reported countless times but it will take a few days for him to be deleted.

Answer 2

i'm starting to hate it, i guess it's a computer doing it--- someone should get a shotgun and shoot it

Answer 3

I reported abuse...we'll see what happens...also what about the person called MAN with his www.****** stuff...that is a pain too!

Answer 4

Because it never asks questions and just keeps cutting and pasting the same advert into every question.  There's another similar one who advertises a dating agency in the same way.  I don't know what you can do apart from report them, but I think they have to have a lot of reports before anything happens and then they just sign up with different name.  I agree about them being annoying.

Answer 5

Sort of boring isn't he !!! hey its just from putting that sight on he gains Pt's !!!hasn't got any best answer Votes lol

Answer 6

He or she should get themselves a life. There is certainly not  much achievement coming on this forum and putting up the same boring posting over and over again. All we can do is keep flagging the postings as abuse and let Yahoo take care of it.

Answer 7

Yes, the link he has is a Virus and apparently Yahoo is trying to shut him down but somehow he is overriding it ..

ITS DRIVING ME CRAZY!!! I keep rating him bad and have reported him sooo many time and his points just keep going up and up .,,

Answer 8

that f*cking son of da b*tch is driving everyone nuts

he needs to get a f*cking life

what a moron and idiot

he is such a disgrace to the world

Answer 9

No, it is driving me nuts too.. as well as many others. It is apparently a type of spam in the form of a "bot" (an automated person who repeats the same thing) . I have been told that Yahoo is working on getting rid of him, but that when he goes away, another one replaces him.

Answer 10

A no lifer who also went by the name "man" but had his account suspended so it pays to report him.

Answer 11

I was about to post such a question, when I noticed yours. I have reported this thing for abuse repeatedly. The name keeps changing.

But I say in my report 'the "******.com" troll is at it again -- he has a bot spamming here with regularity. Ban his IP address!!!'

This is one proof that the admins are only spot-checking reports, and miss the hardcore offenders.

Answer 12

There's another - ORCA_GIRL

Yesterday it was MAN and now today there are 3 or more....

What an annoyance!?

Answer 13

I am not sure if it counts but try to report abuse...

Answer 14

He'll be along any minute now.

Flag him. I've done it 3 times this morning already.

Happy Christmas.

PS He signed up on December 17th and he's on Level 4. I think some people are right in thinking it's a computer. Where's the Team when you need em?

Answer 15

applele is a bot thats spamming and advertising....click on the link

if everyone clicked on the abuse link enough, yahoo will boot him in time (but takes a while....few days maybe)

also keep and eye out for "woman"

Answer 16

send her to my house.

Answer 17

i think its the same type of bot

i am kind of interested in another problem too.

if you look at ******.com on google, the yahoo answers dumps tons of garbage onto the search engine so its not searchable.

does anybody else see this problem?

i dont think that yahoo answers should be searchable on google.
