Spam Bots

(Adam) #1

RN is the DB apocalypse. Spam is going off left and right. How do we stop this MADNESS?!

well…

First Flag them for spam. This will get the attention of Nexon.

Then Tag one of these people @MissMurder @Faraleth @CC_FANG @NxA_Noxie

And finally… Don’t click the links. They are scammers, and not the good kind.

DESTROY THEIR EV!

[quote=“Faraleth (Mod on the forums);89739”]Thanks everyone for being so helpful :smiley: The spammers are banned as soon as we notice them, and if they are flagged 5 times, they will be removed from public view anyway.

Also, if they are fresh and you tag any of the moderators, we will see them right away. I personally tend to do several sweeps of the whole forum throughout the day, but sometimes I am not online when they pop up right away, so tagging us can be a good way to get our attention. :stuck_out_tongue:

Once again, thank you all ^.^[/quote]

Also I’d like to add onto this, please refrain from COMMENTING on these threads which bumps them, if you see one immediately flag for spam, enough of these and it’ll be automatically taken down by the system.

[EDIT]: Adam please do not translate for these bots as well, I accidentally flagged you for spam because of it(Don’t worry I changed it to a “like” since I cannot just remove a reaction all together) but please be cautious about that in the future since I’d hate for you to be wrongfully reported.

Guilty, but K. My bad XD…

Also, the bots are flanking us. We need more pressure over in: http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/categories/new-players

Flags planted!

Flags planted! Don’t let them defuse it!

(JesseKomm) #6

They’ve been hitting General, Off-Topic, New Players, and I think one in Objective. I checked all sections and these are where they strike.

(Adam) #7

There are 2 in Objective: http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/categories/general

And 5 in New Players http://forums.dirtybomb.nexon.net/categories/new-players

We were able to wipe them over in General, and Off Topic, But keep in mind they can respawn.

If anyone hasn’t yet, flank over to Objective and New Players and plant the flag.

I caused a few of them in General Chat to disappear with messages saying they were going to moderators.

Objective Destroyed. Nice work!

They’re bots, they don’t read messages. But if you flagged them then you definitely helped, head over to New Players, it’s where they have the highest concentration. And please do not comment on the threads, it doesn’t help.

No, no. The board itself gave me a message saying the posts were going off to moderation while it hid the post concerned. I guess because I was the fifth guy to flag them. I haven’t commented on any of them except the horribly translated guy in Off Topic.

Oh okay, I misunderstood, thought when you said “with messages” it meant comments on the thread. Apologies.

Rally up and flag 'em! They’ve dropped an Airstrike on the following areas:

  • Map Discussion
  • Game Guides
  • Bug Reporting
(Adam) #13

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED! BUT YOU MADE THAT LOOK HARD WORK.

(DirtyMedal) #14

@Jaeger
did what i could requesting backup!

(Adam) #15

Where? I looked on all boards.

(Samniss_Arandeen) #16

All but one are gone on the Map Discussion, and that one has 4 flags on it.
