Is it just me?

Or are the bots lately becoming more and more mysterious? Looks like the bot makers are actually putting time into these now, how are we to tell whats real and whats not?

You can't a lot of the time. Report it however and we'll look into it. We have a few different methods to find out.

Ok. I'll look for more hidden pron in the random stories they post. X^D

A Google search can do wonders...

I call a bot hunt. In my hand I have a list of known bots and bot sympathizers and I intend to use it.

But you already have a target you're relentlessly hunting down.

True. That is one of the most useful methods, however you don't need to do this. If you think it's a bot report it and we'll look into it.

Although if you are going to do this, post your results in the report you send. There is no point in members searching google to see if they are bots then the mods doing the same when you report it - Just link you search results.

What's all this google hubbub?

Those "sneaky" bots generally blow it a few posts down by giving the site's name and all that crap they want you to buy from them. They usually get by on the first post as disguising its presence as an actual user. Sneaky they are :ninja:
