Closed H-Hello? F-forum mods?
The forum's been completely overrun by those spam bots again
Comments
If enough of us "Spam" the mods maybe they'll implement a solution to the spam bot problem.
Also these spam bot owners are complete -insert censored word- morons. NA forum, English speaking player base for the most part spamming crap in Korean which we don't care about in the least.
*points to the pink-ish banner at the top of the forum pages*
That was their first solution.
It's not for lack of trying. It's not as easy as "lets annoy them because they're just letting it happen." Believe me, no one is 'letting' this happen.
Who is the one approving? I refuse to believe it's a human being.

That won't help in the slightest. It'll just annoy the mods.
They are trying. It's just that for every spammer banned, five more show up.
If anything, there needs to be more control over moderating who joins.
Maybe real people need to go through a newly made account and then approve or disapprove the account?
Just an idea which probably will just make the forums less appealing for real people who join.
I've had to take care of bots on Vindi forums with entirely "normal" names(one even had a reference to .Hack//INFECTION), and there are legit words in English and other languages that may seem like random lettters, for example syzygy.
... MISSFORTUNE HERSELF AND THOSE LINKS TAKE YOU TO HER COSMETIC HAIR & MAKEUP PRODUCTS WEB SHOP
Wow Miss's webstore needs some serious design help. And since when could I download shampoo?
Is there no escape?
we could force the mods to actually do their job and not have people report it on discord.
That's not what the reporting on discord is for. That's in case someone else sees them before we do and can alert us it's started up again so it won't be there hours between the times we check on the forums.
VFMs are human beings who need sleep, live outside lives, and work other jobs to make a living. They aren't staring at the forums 24/7.
