    Or is it even possible for a bot to enjoy itself?
    Especially from thousands of miles away (probably Romania, Nigeria, Russia, or China)
    :thinking:

    If a mod could delete all the posts from the several accounts they have set up we could see the few recent posts about stereos. I wonder what they think the typical profile of a Stereo2Go user is. I doubt if there are many of us need to cheat our homework. @walkman archive might be interested to see if any of his students are cheating, although I don't think we've had a "cheat in your photography assignment post" yet.

    I have asked many times, it should be changed that people can’t just sign up and start posting. They should have the first few posts vetted before they can start posting.

    To be honest I visit this site less and less now because of this kind of thing, it’s getting harder and harder to find stereo related posts. I can only see more and more people leaving if things like this are allowed to carry on. :veryangry:

    Being the only site where I can talk about Discmans (kaosuncd.com is more like a business portal for my friend Kaosun) it saddens me that folks I can relate to do not frequent S2G ... :(

    I am timing the response time of S2G moderator(s): since Monday 3:48pm these bots/folks had invaded the site, and not a single peek from him/them??? From last year's rump about the logo I know that the site owner @walkman archive is too busy with his life and stuff (which I can understand when winding my age back 20-30 years....) :confused: But... is it too inappropriate to include one of the "know-how" Walkman collectors like @Boodokhan or the anchors of the site @Mister X or @Reli (myself being too illiterate and bad-tempered for the job) onto the 'moderators' crowd???

    Naim Audio forum has quite a few moderators, and the speed at which my 'inappropriate' posts are being censored or removed is truly amazing o_O

    So...

    It is DOABLE!!! :)

    We will prevail! I'll throw my hat in to take over the site, love will be in the air and music will pollute the site!

    Thanks for what you are doing T-ster, but would it just not be easier to stop new users posting till a few of their post have been approved? I know it’s more work for you guys, but at least the rest of us can enjoy the site and genuine new users would not mind waiting.

    Thank you guys for noticing. I've just deleted all the posts and banned all three of them.
    Although we have an antispam system that works very well (it even is a bit aggresive) sometimes one of these bots do enter and do their job, but in these occasions just contact me and I'll delete them.
    Enjoy the forum :)

    They've clearly found a way round the spam filter, I just don't get why they do it though.....
