Anti-bot program

[~Puppet Master~]

I think everyone has noticed the recent increase of bot threads on the base.
Normally it's not that bad and people make funny jokes about it but it's still annoying for the mods and lately there have been a few consecutive bot threads :shrug:

I've had this idea for a while, since another forum had a thread approval system. This is a little annoying since it takes time for your legit thread to be posted, so I thought it might be better to make an automatic approval system. A system that knows the difference between spam threads and normal threads, it's not that hard for the server see the difference since bot threads are typical and obvious.

That's my suggestion, I think this site is too good for bot threads and it should definitely be fixed.

Sounds legit, it's just a question if it's implementable or not at this point.

I just ignore them, but thats just me

agreed no more bots

I think they had one but it went down during the crash. Once someones ID gets stolen it'll get fixed. I think the same thing should be implemented for tobi theories.

Yeah, are you going to write the code for the system and volunteer your time to constantly monitor all the threads being produced?

The only realistic solution we have is to report. It's not that big a deal.

Maybe you didn't understand it 100%, I'm talking about an automatic program that knows the difference between spam threads and legit threads, no monitoring needed.

And I know HTML/Batch code so I know that this system won't be too hard to code.

We have such "add-ons". The ones you see are not even half of the ones that get blocked.
