This user is a suspected spammer!

[hZti]

I have seen more and more people with that a red tag on their post saying „This user is a suspected spammer!“. However I can not find any negative trust or anything like this on their profile. Is this a new feature of the forum and how do people end up with that kind of tag?


Edit: Actually it seems that also I have this tag   (Which is funny since I have done about 1.3K posts in 10 years on this forum which does not seem a lot)

I'm sure this is one of the April fool's jokes by Theymos. There are users reputable enough that I have seen as well and it can't be right.

The ones I have seen so far posted almost a novel related to a topic. It must be an April fool's joke. It's been a tradition already even the most serious vlogger I know has been posting weirdly stuff as well.


Before posting as well you can see. In order to prevent low-effort posts, we now require you to complete the following CAPTCHA before clicking "post"

As you can see, I don’t have that spammer tag after completing the coins required for captcha. Many user failed to solved the captcha through playing the game that result to your question.

Thanks for the answer! I saw this „game“ and thought it would be some kind of advertisement for a stupid mobile game or something like that

It’s not about the posts or number of years… this is AI powered systems running on top of GPT-44… and it knows who’s spammer and who’s not. This is invented by theymos.

LOL, I think this is a bit difficult for anyone to solve especially if they have to collect a lot of coins. But on the umpteenth try, finally this chapcha was resolved too. So I hope I'm not a spammer on this thread, Lol

While there are dozens of users just ignoring it, I think it's just a game - seriously.

Damn you, Theymos!

OP, you're a Hero member.  How did you get fooled by the April Fool's Day shenanigans?

This piqued my curiosity, so I decided to search a bit and found that the user had not attended April Fools before even though the account was created in 2013.

The reason for me to not use my account was a hacking attempt a few years ago and I was actually not willing to go through the complicated steps of getting the account back. For that reason the account was simply locked for the last years and nobody had access to it. Now that I had the time and will to get the account back.

This member was active until December 30, 2016 and then didn't post until 4/5/2022 so he must have seen my April fool before since this event started in 2015.

In 2016: @hZti  does not have posts in April.
In 2015: @hZti  contains no posts in the month of April.
In 2022: @hZti  first post was on 4/5, or 3 days after the April fool.

So, despite all these years, it is his first time.

I don't know exactly how serious you are asking this, but how can you forget that it's April Fools?
Everyone will see it expires in a day, and I think by the time you wake up it's all gone. It's only about few hours away from now, and it's pretty bad if you never know what theymos do on April 1st.

The April fools joke has tricked some users with the tag (This user is a suspected spammer!). Very unsightly with the tag, the bright red color is very eyesore. April fools this time more surprising than ever, we have to solve CAPTCHA to remove spammer tag. The game is a bit challenging, but it's hard to finish if you collect too many coins. Today is back to normal as usual, the Spammer tag is gone, we can post again as usual without having to worry about spammer tags.

It should have been "obviously a spammer" suspected is used when there is a doubt.😀

If it's tagged as an obvious spammer, any post regardless it's quality will get deleted if they're not completing the captcha

I'm just thinking what if we can't post before completing the captcha, I think most of people will not post in mega thread since it's require many coins to complete. Yep, they will not post in mega thread, but they will create a new thread as the solution lol.

There's always a loophole in any system...

Do you mean to say people are spamming here for the last many years and now AI has detected them  

I'm not a spammer!

Anyone with gaming skills is not a spammer while anyone with writing skills becomes a spammer.
This AI needs to be reprogrammed and that's why its taken down now

Haha very nice in depth analytics. Actually in my country April Fools is not that big of a deal as it seems it is internationally (even if still everyone fell for the Royse Campaign )
And yes I never saw the April fools days here in the forum before or at least I can’t remeber them.

PS: Obviously I did not report anyone here for spam
