All the spamming lately

Am I crazy, when I feel a bit forlorn when there is no spambot to be zapped?

I know it’s good that there is no spam, but it did got us all on the barricades, didn’t it. Talking about it and creating wonderful ChatGPT pictures.

So am I alone in this, and thus crazy, or… :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Btw @Madchaser, is that a special version of ChatGPT that can draw?

Me too.

No, it isn’t. It’s simply the free registered version.

The Motley Crew unites as “The Regulars” resistance!

That’s what I love about a good democracy: we all fight each other until someone threatens us - then we fight as one!

And that might be exactly the opposite of what those attacking us tries to achieve :smile:

Maybe this is already GZ2:

34 years later, fnix returns and sends its spambots to destabilize the internet.

The regulars are a group of veterans, who now fight in a new war, an epic mmorpg, free2play… just on forum.generationzero.com :laughing:

One thing the spambot did achieve. He has raised the veterans. And hopefully we won the fight. :v:

Damn…Fnix already won and you guys dont even see it…

Had flagged one Spam in the morning. It had to do with flight informations. The bot tried to dupe the filter.

I like the creation of Generation Zero themed pictures with AI and the talk about it, but I would appreciate it if it wasn’t sprinkled between the talk about spam, even though it’s indirectly linked with spam.

@Zesiir / @MilesLexicon Couldn’t this be split off to a separate topic and placed in community content?
The title could be the one in green.

Okay everyone, I know you’re trying your best to help and I appreciate that.

But having more than one account violates the forum Code of Conduct. Please don’t try to circumvent
the forum’s flag system, we’ll deal with the spam bots as you all report them.

I’ll have to remove duplicate accounts.

Sorry, it felt like a desperate time called for a desperate measure. But understood.

I guess with the game abandoned, someone felt the need to bring a new kind of “game update” with a new enemy type :rofl:

We’ve had a significant downtick in bot spam, I believe it’s due to the banned words now, is interesting to see how they have to manually edit each post now to circumvent it only for it to be added to the next wave of banned phrases.

I can’t understand this kind of people. What’s broken in their brains? Instead of putting their energy in such shit like spam they should put it in things with more sense.

Perhaps they are less fortunate than us. For them, it might be the the next meal ticket. I’m not defending them. They are freaking annoying and I think it is a total waste of everybody’s time. But they might not have that many options :person_shrugging:

@helldiver Maybe its virtual intelligence instead?
Because i cant envision a human wasting time with spam in an almost dead forum like this (no intent to offend guys)
I honestly dont see a company putting bots with minimal adjusts by humans doing this.
Its likely to be training for some V.I with no real objective or someone really has a case against this.

Imagine this was a Helldivers 2 or Cod or world of warcraft forum, it would make a bit o sense in pages with a lot more of users.
But this situation is a bit more illogical and weird.
