So, over the last 6 or so months people have been noticing that deviantART has been getting hit by malicious spammers.
The current trend of these spammers is to favourite an image of yours and then when you reply on their page you get a message along the lines of "I really liked your work. Hey I just got this free X Item and thought I should share it with you." These are all spammers, the links lead to potentially malicious sites. We have been blacklisting these websites and banning all the spammers we can find.
However we need your support in this, we need you to report them too us. We have a section of the help desk dedicated to reports about these accounts, it's titled "Spammer Reports". Tickets in that section are handled within 48 hours during the working week. But unfortunately I've been noticing a tendency that some of these accounts can last for days without being reported. People are aware of them because they're commenting on the profiles stating that they're spammers, but we need these accounts to be reported to us.
If you see a spammer account please file a Spammer Report ticket and encourage others to do so in the future. It only takes one ticket to get an issue solved, but without that one ticket we aren't going to be aware of the issue

Almost 21 years
Since I will undoubtedly forget to log in here for another 2 years, 21 years is a long time. Also it seems my entire gallery has been deleted. Thanks I guess. Edit: apparently I stored them and forgot in my senility.
19 years
Because I never come here, it didn't occur to me that last year it was 18 years since I registered with this site, at the time it was half my life. Next April it will be 20 years, where did the time go? I don't know how half of this site works anymore, it's so vastly different to what it was 7 years ago when I stopped visiting regularly. Weird to think how much has changed since I joined and how much I miss some people (a person in particular) that I used to be incredibly close to.
A small announcement:
I'm a trans woman.
My name is Sophie.
Back to scheduled hibernation.
To whoever is trying to reset my password
It's the dumbest way to try and access someones account fucker. All it does is send me annoying emails that make me come on here to write a journal telling you to knock that shit off.

Spam is pretty darn freaky sometimes...
