For whatever reason that reminds me of Cutelucca's doujinshi. I guess because it was raunchy and I was still young enough at the time to be really impressed and intrigued that someone was doing art of, a game I loved, that was raunchy without being straight up porn.

Right?!?! I think that's what I was thinking of, too. And even for the same reasons. Her art style was pretty iconic.

Sweet Jesus. How is there any money in running these spam bots if nobody takes the bait? Has anybody in the whole history of the internet, ever been fooled by such utter nonsense? I know there are some super gullible people out there, but I refuse to believe anybody is THAT dumb.

They're supposedly offering an essay-writing service and can't even form a complete sentence. Even if they were totally legit and the links didn't lead to ransomware or something, is that really who you want doing your homework?

Also, do the people running the bots not realize that flooding boards and pissing off users will make them LESS likely to buy into their scam?

I'm just befuddled by the whole thing. Even if the spam process is 99% automated, there's still that 1% of setup. How is that worth the spammer's time if there's no return on it?

I don't imagine there's any logic to it, but jeez, that was a lot of posts to delete. I'm not sure there's anything more I can do on my end, unfortunately.

I would certainly think they don't pay that much attention.

Considering this happened just yesterday with the same thing. As if detecting they got stopped prompted them to try again instead of backing off.

Yeah. It was odd. Seemingly harmless posts, though apparently copied from previous threads or from Reddit, being edited days later by the user to include spams links.

Not sure what to make of Trig's latest posts...

Ah, sometimes it happens that a user, either newly registered or after a long absence, decides to put input on a bunch of posts at the same time. It's a harmless action, I'd say.

Well, Google didn't do well for me either in finding old topics with the same text. I mostly used the forum search. Except for one.
Here are the originals from here I've found that got copied by the spammers, and the year they were originally posted.
A couple Chrono ideas (https://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/index.php?topic=8635.0) (2010)
Validity of Crimson Echoes Cart (https://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/index.php?topic=10830.0) (2016)
Lavos Theme Extended? (https://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/index.php?topic=12536.0) (2017)
Original story idea inspired by Chrono Cross (https://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/index.php?topic=8871.0) (2010)
A theory about "Time Counciousness" (https://www.chronocompendium.com/Forums/index.php?topic=4874) (2007)
I generally haven't been reading everything that's been posted, but recognizing the Lavos theme one was what made me look more closely at the other spam posts.

They actually based that Gundam series on Kodokami and I deleting spam threads.

As a mod, nothing annoys me more. There are multiple a day over on r/chronotrigger and its exhausting dealing with them, and increasing the spam filter only helps a little, but requires even more work because it catches a ton of non-spam posts that then have to be manually approved.

 :lol:

Sometimes, I'll catch spam before anyone else and hesitate deleting it right away, because Mauron's comments in the reports are so amusing.

But yeah, the spam sucks. Not even sure how they keep getting in. The worst (which we thankfully haven't had in a while), are the ones that create enough spam to fill several pages worth.

I didn't know the subreddit had so much spam, so I guess that shows you're doing a great job, Boo!
Title: Re: Deleting Spam Like...
Post by: Mauron on September 21, 2020, 05:50:20 pm
And here I thought I was helping out! :P

For those not reading the reports, here's the details of the last one:

Spam: garbage text and the word "Luminous"
Report: this spam of mine glows with random characters!
