    for example "Nashik~!!! 【+⁺⑨① ^ 9928979713 】 Love(Problem)Solution MOLVI JI IN Barley "

    No idea. Perhaps some scam number? And what's with the location names?

    Just dial the number and find out!
    All right, gentleperchildren, let's review. The year is 2024 - that's two-zero-two-four, as in the 21st Century's perfect vision - and I am sorry to say the world has become a pussy-whipped, Brady Bunch version of itself, run by a bunch of still-masked clots ridden infertile senile sissies who want the Last Ukrainian to die so they can get on with the War on China, with some middle-eastern genocide on the side

    They are the result of the board owner unwilling to impose any posting restrictions for new accounts.

    They don't even allow any ongoing discussion about it, after they state something like 'everything is fine' the threads get closed, every single time.

    This is getting out of hand. General is basically unusable.

    Hang in there. I'm sure the Gen Discussion mods will start hammering at them shortly.

    I'd at least start deleting them if I could, but we actually don't have moderation powers outside our "jurisdictions."

    Perhaps that rule needs to be changed. Then some more preventative measures can be taken.

    Certainly something we could consider for situations like this.

    I've never seen MMO-C get hit this hard by spam bots posting gibberish.

    It's the spammy version of "mods are asleep, post lewds"?

    I think every mod should have the ability to delete threads regardless of jurisdiction.

    and if any mod abuses that right then they should lose mod status.
