As it can take a looong time for faults to be remedied, I thought this could fill in for now?
1. My Vabysmo eye injection this afternoon at the hospital.
2. I wore my 'hidden disabilities' thingy around my neck.
3. Home and having a curry tonight

1. Finding myself here, and (almost) the only one active here at this time (unsurprisingly)...albeit not like the y'olde days!
2. Being enabled to conduct research and quiet observation in an old pastime time! (older users here, will know what I speak of)
3. Doing the "right thing" and just raising a "Flag to the moderator" ..... as we must.
[PS - hopefully, this post will make ZERO sense, in the morning?]
Yes - I remember that thread too.....because I started it, I think!
The same message, from the same poster, appeared in all the threads that had been active last night....within the space of about 5 minutes....from a BOT account that had never posted here before......and that message was about selling us a link in Facebook to buy a miracle cure.
If we're not even allowed to pass comment on such things, then that is sad?.....but in any event, there was absolutely no doubt that this was a BOT.....and I simply passed comment with a fellow user about it's appearance. I didn't engage with it, accuse it of anything, torment it........I was just talking with another community member....which I hope is still permissible here.....although to be fair.....who knows these days!
Indeed - your concerns are WHOLLY aligned with mine = when I realised that some of my chums in this place were being UTTERLY suckered into engagement with these types of entities, I was encouraged to "shut myself down"......which I am (generally) happy to do.....because I know I am autistic - hence (by common perception) - can't possibly have a more valid and reasoned justification for my behaviour.....within a world that has CLEARLY gone mad?!
My only concern is some folks on here not being able to tell it's a bot and clicking on it with the best of intentions. Bot or no, I don't like scammers, and I don't trust facebook links as far as I can throw them—which is not far at all.
FYI - I used to get myself in trouble in ye'olden days......by following, and observing the behaviour of this type of thing! I can report with ABSOLUTE certainty, that "immediate reappearance" is a new behaviour, that I have never witnessed before. Evolution.....I guess!
FYI - I only do this sort of thing, PURELY because I like to learn,.and be informed about the world - on a "first principles" / "personally witnessed" basis. I find it fascinating......although the VAST majority of my AUD kin-folk seem uninterested, and somewhat irritated by my fascination for "bot hunting."
And yet......dear brother/sister/another......by another mother.....I not that this little gitster......has simply - and immediately - just reappeared!
