yup there was a flood of bots the other day.
i flagged a couple of them in the ‘something else’ so the forum mods would see it.
and a great job they did, all of them gone in a blink of an eye…

Yep, all day yesterday the discussion forum was flooded. I posted about it in the “Bug Reports/Website & Forum” area in the afternoon, and a few hours later my post was gone, but so were the spam postings, so I’m glad that someone was paying attention.

Hey,
There was a bot raid, I was informed about it on our team chat 7 hours after it started (which is pretty bad). The raid was still going on when logged on the forum.
I quickly looked for a pattern in the bots’ messages and pushed a rule to block them, which worked instantly.
Me and @BrainFog_シ cleaned up the forum, as if nothing had ever happened 
Here are the numbers:
- Duration: 7 hours
- Bot accounts: +500
- Spam topics: +1000
Best regards,

I flagged the first 30, and then gave up after that. I made a topic about it while it was happening but when it got rolled back it vanished.
Thank you for the help mods!!

The thing is, I thought you had to post 10 times before you could create a new topic, and you had to be a player before creating a forum account?
