THEY'RE ON MY PROFILE!!! WHAT THE HECK!!??? GUYS, THIS IS A RAID LIKE NO OTHER!!!!!
So… maybe it isn't a bot??
Mabey. The thing that worry's me is: this was extremely organized. They were planning this.
The fact theres a little bit of time between posts, and the 6minute hiatus, leads me to believe they may be the same couple of people, maybe even one.
While i despise F4F, I definitely disagree with this.
Yes, same. I think they are mainly using it as a focal point for the spam.
Perhaps the limit could be one post added period every 5 seconds, if you try posting within 5 seconds of another, it’ll wait until its been 5 seconds to post, if you’re a new scratcher.

Actually, these spam posts are five seconds apart…

Yes, this is a serious problem… I hope the ST responds soon. I've never seen a raid so bad.

I agree, I didn't even realize until the forum group I joined told me. Instead of arguing with said raids, people should just quietly report instead of arguing back, this only gives the raid more ground to force themselves on, and it's only going to make it worse. F4F does not hurt people, they should stop complaining about it and just ignore the requests.

There was a moment of time where they were a little under 5 seconds apart.

They make a lot of topics and stop. Make a lot, and stop. They will likely pick up again, but let's hope it's over.

Another six showed up I think, never mind about it stopping.

This is incredibly concerning, I hope the ST responds soon, muting most, if not banning them. Though the ban would be extreme.

We do need a way to figure out how to at least slow down spam.

Yes, this is my first raid as well (I haven't been on forums super long, and usally kept to myself on normal scratch, except for a couple of people.)

They’re spamming the forums, and mutes don’t normally carry over to the forums.

Bans do prevent you from using them, however.

And that’s probably what’s gonna happen to the spammers.

I can ensure you that all of those accounts are getting banned. The ST may even ban the IP so that this (hopefully) never happens again.

I didn't know mutes didn't carry over to forums, that kind of belays the point of the mute. from what I've seen on my chromebook though, the raid is slowing down, if not completely stopped.

Yes, hopefully it doesn't happen again. I wouldn't hold out my hopes for it, though. Humans will always enjoy causing chaos just for the sake of causing chaos.

I would say IP bans work better, as I believe these people have a high chance of being 1. hacked 2. alts 3. friends who knows each other IRL
also bans are too LITTLE for this situation
