Did anybody notice? Yeah, during all this fuss with certain group moderators, some time or another we reached 700 members in the group. This is just a quick post to tell y'all how happy I am to have reached another sub-goal of mine. It feels good because quite funnily enough, I never thought that this Steam group would get very far.

So thanks to all of you who invited your friends, it means a lot to me.

Oh yes, and also, now that that sub-goal is complete, it is replaced by another. Yeah, 800 members. At the moment I am sure we are at something like 718 members and counting all the time. Can I ask that if you are a returning member that you invite your friends? And can I ask that if you are aguest, click the Steam Community link just to the right of here and join up, then invite all your friends as well! It's well worth it.

That's all.

Hello, and finaly I am back after a time without posting any news. Today (07/31/2010) I received a Friend Invite from someone that says he can Hack the people by simply visiting their profiles and if he chooses you as a victim, BOOM, you have been hacked.

I was talking with Delta about that, and you can know, thats all LIES, nobody can do that, if anyone says they can do that, the chances are it's a joke.

Now, this website is not a phish (as far as we know) but it all starts out with a personal message on YouTube. Somebody tells you they got like 900 subscribers from doing this website, so that got me interested. Firstly it asks you to enter your YouTube username, then it tells you to subscribe to these 10 people (it's the same people all the time) and then it tells you to complete a survey to earn 10 subscribers. Even if you get past this dreadfully awful survey, nothing happens.

So, you haven't got what you wanted, someone has got your subscription, and a survey website has your email address and can spam you as much as they want. Do not go on this website and enter your Youtube username, if you are linked to this website anywhere, we recommend that you do not go any further than the homepage, unless you are determined to prove to us that it's real. It's taking me and Devil ages to locate who we subscribed to and delete them all.

After about a month with a crappy blog that had no work done to it, I decided I would give WordPress a change, and now that I have taken the [BETA] tag off of the navigation link, you will also notice lots of changes, had you been there previously.

I have made a first post, so you can read what I've said there if you wish to visit the blog, and I will try and remember to post regular updates on it like I do here and on the Steam group.

Cheers

Looks good, but an instant giveaway for the less intelligent is a pop up, which would never appear on the official Steam Website. Steals your Username and Password so don't get fooled.

Since webSPELL is a little more to do with gaming than normal websites, and mainly due to the amount of spelling and grammar errors it has in English, I have been looking at a more non-gaming based Content Management System to use, which does not have nearly as many spelling errors.

I have installed Joomla to a test directory, you can access it here and as you can see it is complete with a template and a redesign.

On the downside, I have no knowledge of Joomla or how to use it and have had to google everything so far. The other thing is that if we were to switch from webSPELL to Joomla, we would lost so much and would have to start almost from scratch.

Well, let me know what you think by posting a comment on this news post and I will gather the feedback to see what the best solution is.

Another dude thinking we can be hacked. This one is old, "NVIDIA and Steam Powered Gives to you 3 Free games to your account". This is another pishing website, and is REALLY old...

Also, this guy who gave the link to I could be hacked, is from Brazil (Like me). He has been "trolled" many times by me, and, be careful with he. Don't open this website link, forever. For he is this link (be careful if you want to enter: http://steamcomunidadebrazil.awardspace.us)

And another is that fake "view profile": http://steamcommunity_profile_9156382712023982712.9hz.com/ (You should not enter on that website, but if you want to enter, be careful)

Since the introduction of the website, I find it quite hard to keep things going how they were when it was just the Steam group, and even though things did get better with the arrival of the website, I still think that in order to effectively let people know of new threats, such as phishing websites, I am going to need some help.

Firstly, I need to recruit a few moderators.

Here are the "job" details:

• Post group announcements about phishing websites/advice to group members.
• Post an additional news post on the website
• Update the blog (blog moderator only)
• Check for website abuse and remove any you find
• Make sure the website is kept up-to-date
• Administrate/moderate the forums.

Those are the main specifications, however take a look at these benefits if you're interested:

• Moderator status on the Steam group, ability to post announcements etc.
• Relevant admin access on the website
• You will be given an email address@anti-hackers.co.uk - if you want one
• Moderator/administrator access on the forums

Bear in mind that rights never outweigh responsibilities, before you all start moaning!

If you're interested, add me on steam please @ ljakid - or email me: delta301@anti-hackers.co.uk

Added reCAPTCHA WebSPELL addon to the majority of the features to help us protect against spam. I will leave this news post free for anyone to comment and see if we get spam.

-outdated news-

I know it sounds weird speaking to a machine, however it is true that the website has been getting a lot of spam, wherever possible. From now on bots, you're going to just have to create a user account if you want to rape the comments...

...which brings me to a news update. Over the next couple of days I will be adding re-CAPTCHA to the website so that we can aim for better protection against such bots and spammers. Such a widget offers powerful protection against bots and spammers and ensures that everybody who registers and posts comments annonymously are human.

re-CAPTCHA will appear over the next few days in:

• News Comments
• Poll Comments
• Forums
• When you register an account
• More

Cheers
