Greetings to All. This is the latest "Maintenance" Thread, or 'Report Spam' Thread. ( ...& For those not interested or not affected, I say just move on, or start Your own Thread. ) But this kind of Thread *is* necessary at times. NAS themselves say to start a New Thread when a New problem arises, and so that is what I am doing here.
NAS, There is a LIKEBOT here now, as well as a COPYBOT. Again. (Using a Plural does not matter.) This Thread is begun to draw Your attentions to the fact.
The BEST information on This Forum, about dealing with "Copybots":https://community.autism.org.uk/f/miscellaneous-and-chat/12621/copybot-and-forum-security/
The "LikeBot" is a new thing. I Myself have been seen to "like" certain (new) Users of whom I have no knowledge. This is the Thread to write about that, now. I have never "upvoted" these Persons but someone has FAKED My doing so...
So, NAS, --- SORT IT OUT!!!
As far as I saw, I was Fake-LikeBotted to "like":
LanFan1301NAS62736NAS62745
...Whom I have NOT liked. There may be others, though.
Completely unrelated, the only outside Thread about Fake Likes, I put a link to is here:
https://www.smore.com/r50ve-how-do-you-spot-fake-likes-online
...Which explains about FaceBook and Twitter, etc. With regards to This Forum, So far it seems just getting four or five (fake) "likes" upon here, and starting a Thread, this automatically puts a person "within the top 1% of the community"...
NAS - SORT IT OUT! (How many times will I try to say that here?)
(Also, it is a shame that this sort of thing will further put people off from using the UpVote Button. I hope that this is sorted soon, or I might have to delete Myself, and I do not want to do that.)
Noooooooo don’t ever Delete yourself, that would be so upsetting,
Keep being you as it’s needed.
upvote and be happy. :)
(This Thread seems quite busy right now, at <> half-twelve..). To Mr LoneWarrior...You Good Sir, as I said, are the other Person much "appreciated"! Thank You for the Comments & support upon all Threads concerned!
...The thing is, little things like this, do cause my creaking devices to creak a bit more. The update from NAS back in 2017 nearly totalled one of them. Upon this Device I use now, I had a new trouble starting it up, let alone logging on. I have said very often before, that one day I might stop posting altogether because I lack the (new) Devices to do so.
I am staying, though posting less, but am glad I just happened to see all of this now... but this is the type of "hacking" where if it does get worse, then I would have to delete. It is NOT that bad, yet, so do not worry so much. Time will tell...
