I don't think we can do much on our end, but apparently MEA general section is suffering the chinese(?) spam-bot attack. I thought that PB takes care of those.
(If they keep on autoposting 1 thread per minute, it's goign to become very messy very soon.)

So far the mods have nabbed the spambots fairly promptly, there's usually at least one mod 'on duty' at whatever time... The best thing to do is to report the first spam post (don't need to report them all) as that will make it immediately visible to a mod, whereas mods may not see a forum post so quickly. Thanks for pointing this out, so we can remind everyone, I recall you've called out spam posts before .

Yeah I've seen it not too long ago, you guys deleted the shitposts real quick though. It's a common thing in forums, I've seen it in Total War Center and apparently is a Korean spam bot.
As a general rule, if anyone see a thread like that, don't even open it. Just in case.
Out of curiosity, should we plebs PM a mod (which one btw) when this happens as a way to try speed things up? or we leave it be and wait to "nature to follow its course" ?

The easiest way is just to hit 'report' on the thread, because that will be seen by any mod: If you want to know which mods are 'on duty' just search 'staff' to see who's on: bsn.boards.net/members?dir=asc&sort=name&view=staffBut a 'report' is probably just as quick as a PM. Either way, appreciate your interest .
