"I am a big C418 fan"

Barely done anything in this wiki in the past 3 months so I may come back to contributing this wiki in mid-September.

Everyday, people of the C418 wiki do their best to improve and create pages and editorials to build the community up and make the history of C418.

Yes, I am the lucky because I registered shortly before the account creation is disabled to shut the spambots up.

Me V.S. Spam content

Ғrom the 3rd-4th of August 2021 I logged in to the wiki and something unusual happened to the Main Page and it turns out that the spammers have invaded the page then I tried to deal with these spammy content and non-C418 articles and I kept having to revert the vandalized Main Page which is full of spam content and I have moved some spam to the Template namespace and it was devastating to see if it omits the page when clicked "Random Page" but after 30 minutes I started to get bored and did something else like Minecrafting. A week before the mass deletion of non-C418 or spammy content thanks to Whizzer0, I could not log in or edit anything, ANYTHING at all and same with the spammers in order to stop them from creating their account, vandalizing the Main Page and creating spam or non-C418 content. When I returned to the wiki on the 19th of August 2021, I checked the recent changes, Block logs and Deletion logs, before I logged in, I checked that I got my user page deleted and got blocked accidentally then later got unblocked as Whizzer0 checked her talk page and turned out that I left the "urgent message about the mass deletion of the spammy stuff" at the talk page on the 4th of August 2021 and the entirety of the spam got deleted already earlier (i guess...) and I would like to apologize about the "GO AWAY I (badword) HAD ENOUGH", "I WILL GIVE YOU THE BIGGEST WARNING OF ALL YOUR LIFE!!!!!" stuff (In an attempt to teach the spammers the lesson but turned out that someone created the robot as assumed) and I accidentally moved the Main Page to the Template and C418 wiki namespaces. I then had to restore the normal Main Page and remove the redirect from it. I will thank Whizzer0 for the mass deletion of the spam and the cleanup of the wiki that I tried to deal with.

Hi! I woke up and deleted all the spam and now I have to go to bed again. During this process I accidentally blocked you and deleted your pages, but I have now reverted this. Given the circumstances, I'm sure you can understand. Thank you for your hard work, and I hope you enjoy using the freshly-cleaned wiki! We will be putting some better spam protections in shortly to prevent this happening in the future. All the best! :)

Hopefully, when the account creation is enabled again, I would love to say that there would be an anti-spambot and some new admins and new bureaucrats coming to protect the wiki to stop the spamming from happening again! But right now, you would have to email the wiki admin to create an account. These times can be a bit devastating so when you create your wiki next time, protect the main page, disable account creation (temporarily enable account creation during invitation) and invite some friends if possible to be the admin or a bureaucrat then create some important pages like rules, instructions for admins and bureaucrats so watch what you're doing and enjoy wiki-ing!

THE END.

1 year of the Major Spam Attacks

On the 3rd of August 2022, I edited my page to commemorate the memory of the attack.

and it was quite devastating for the C418 fans...

and I hope the attacks will never happen again when the account creation is enabled again...

and I hate you, spammers...
