Other interesting thing is that they have activity and post count different than the actual posts. See below. Is this kind of bug? The comment from the patrol page is missing in the showPosts, the activity and post count change almost every 5 min but no new comments are listed.
Activity doesn't always update as fast as post count. Some of them are nuked so that's why their posts disappear. The Chinese sub board is absolutely riddled with bots. Because their mod isn't really active people are just botting the Off Topic and Press sections there. You can get away with it easily in the Press board as it's pretty much just a place for copy and pastes and people are just copying and pasting random bits of nursery rhymes post after post in Off Topic:

There's hundreds of these bots and they probably belong to the same @163.com email address farmer who has been doing this years. Click on any of the threads created and there's just half a dozen more posting in there:
I really don't see why we need Press and Off topic boards in Locals. They're already massively abused in the English section and it's ten times worse when they can get away with it easily in the Local boards.
