When are you gonna have sign-ups for moderators or have something that can deal with the spam? I'm not trying to be rude in anyway but it's just makes me upset when I see bots spam our amazing forums, ya know? Any information on that would be AMAZING! Where's @Peanits when you need him? :(

    It's the weekly Friday, Saturday, Sunday stuff when they know most of the mods won't be on. @not_Queen said they'd be doing an opening soon for more mods.

    My guess is it'll probably happen after the new chapter gets released.

    I really don't care what happens really, I just want the spam gone. Seriously, they should make you link your steam, xbox, or PS account to reduce the amount of bots.

    You may not care but I do, the forum isn't a place to dump your bait mail.

    It's time for the spam to go. Nobody likes getting on to see a bunch of spam. Hopefully it ends soon.

    Agreed so everyone needs to just keep flagging it so the mods cna nail them faster. But what would also really hel is the ability to flag a post without actually opening it. The spammers wouldn't get any views that way which is what they want.

    Does the job come with a Mori animation whenever you smite a spammer?

    FYI, creating a topic about spam is also spam.

    BHVR needs to add captcha's to their forum registration and forum posting (not text ones, just the check box that says "I am not a robot"). That'd solve this problem really quick.

    But so are most of your comments. So where do we draw the line?

    Now who knows what show and episode this is from? No cheating with Google !!!!!

    Can't they simply forbid any other kind of alphabet in this forum? Like, if you try to post in korean, mandarin or russian you get an error message.

    And how are my comments spam? I post on topic. Just because I make points/counter points and destroy your argument doesn't make my comment spam. And if you are really having that hard of a time seeing "the line" you might need new glasses.

    When you try to come back after being roasted...

    Anyway... your comment that claimed that this thread is spam is equally spam.
    But you fail to see that. Want to borrow my glasses?

    Peanits is here. It happens often. More than you might think, actually. I check in pretty often and clear out any I see.

    EDIT: That feel when your phone autocorrects your own name.
