Young Bard Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) NOTE TO POSTERS: THIS IS A POST TO VENT FRUSTRATION AT SPAMBOTS. TO REPORT A SPAMBOT, PLEASE GO TO THE SPAMBOT'S PROFILE PAGE, AND CLICK 'REPORT'. Just a note to the admin, there is a spambot on the loose in the General Brandon discussion.

skaa Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 (edited) IANAM (I Am Not A Moderator) but using the Report button on the offending spam post should be enough to alert the Steel Inquisitorsadmin that a purge is needed. No need to create a topic about it. Unless you want a discussion about spambots. In which case, carry on.

Young Bard Posted May 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Thanks. I've never had to submit a report before. But it looks like it's been removed now anyway. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lightsworn Panda Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Spam bots, sadly, are a constant plague on 17th Shard. We had an entire thread discussing this, by the way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Glamdring804 Posted May 23, 2015 Report Share Posted May 23, 2015 Spam bots, sadly, are a constant plague on 17th Shard. We had an entire thread discussing this, by the way. Yeah, that was a ton of spam. Glad someone cleaned it up so quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Young Bard Posted May 29, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 That's 3 spambots I've had to report today, and each without a page worth of content. I'll make a note in the Suggestion Box, but maybe we should have something such as a limit to how many posts can be made at once. If a person can make 2 new topics within a minute, then I find it unlikely they're human. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the winter system Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 They already can't make two new topics within a minute. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chaos Posted May 29, 2015 Report Share Posted May 29, 2015 Moving to site issues and closing; these topics do not serve any purpose. Use the report feature. It sends an email to every mod and is much faster. No, I don't know why there is an influx, no, there are not many more options I can do to turn it on, yes, it is annoying. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
