There is a bot flooding the animal crossing board

[princessmorgan]

Hey mods, can y'all make it stop? Or ban it? Thanks TT_TT

 

[Quill]

There's at least two separate accounts from what I've seen... Unless they close new member registration there's not much they can do to prevent it, just delete the threads when they pop up

 

[princessmorgan]

Ugh... so we just have to page back a bunch to find real threads then huh?

 

[Astro0]

wooooooow i just sussed that board, soooooo many spam threads! i've reported it just in case you other people haven't

 

[princessmorgan]

I just realized there was a report button thanks to you! I'll join you in the report effort!

I like your Ed signature btw!

This is unacceptable! This site really needs a spam filter or something we call "spam-o-matic", which denies registration to spammers and spambots. But then again, the admins won't install a spam filter due to the weak moderation system.

They filled a lot pages of the ACNL subforum with spam threads. THE HORROR.

im laughing so hard this bot made 17 pages of threads in a matter of minutes oh man
shouldnt the img verification thing stop most spambots

 

[starlark]

To be honest, not that many people browse the ACNL subforum anymore so that was a bit of a fail of the spambot's part.

This was worse than the iPhone 6 spam threads from last September. Do you remember iphone6plus and its spam threads advertising iPhones? These threads in the ACNL forum are not even language.

Oh God, I remember that xD
There was also one that PM'ed me and a few other female users asking us to strip for the bank or something completely ridiculous.
Yeah sure, if you wanna get jailed for child pornography...

Just looking at the TBT value of the spammer reminded me of the time when we had a user who made nearly 1,000 TBT by using incomplete quote tags while quoting big posts. That may sound a bit irrelevant, but that's a lot of TBT made by the spammer.

Oh my gosh, I remember that. It was in the villager trading plaza, wasn't it?.

They seem to sometimes spam the Gamers Lounge/Treehouse. It's annoying, but like Quill said, unless new member registration is closed, theres not much to do about it...

Nope. I wasn't even around at that time.

staff should put in a security question like 'who is the animal who determines your appearance at the beginning of most ac games' or smth like that, in addition to the img verifcation

 

[PrayingMantis10]

It's a sad day when a bot has more forum bells than me..

 

[lazuli]
