Resolved: Bot/troll accounts

2,461 645 August 1, 2022 at 05:33 AM
See attached screenshot, noticed in a recent thread. Given that all the accounts were created in Apr 2021 and have similar (probably computer generated) names with + + , and the fact that they posted the same weird comment, I'm gonna guess it's a troll or bot. There may be other accounts created around the same time with the same username pattern. Anyway, this probably violates the TOS about opening only one account so I thought I'd bring it to your attention.
