Hundreds of v weird posts on every single board. Dont want to click on them to link but I’m sure you’ll spot one 😂

It's definitely a bot attack...

Singularity is upon us...take cover! AI attack!

I was just having a nice scroll with my 11am coffee and they suddenly appeared 🙄

DrJoanAllenby · 18/04/2024 11:01

Reported them.

MoltenLasagne · 18/04/2024 11:01

Yes, just coming to note that they're all different user names too, as I imagine MNHQ have a block on a single user posting that many topics.

Crikey. Poor HQ. What a nightmare.

This'll be fun to sort out! Poor MNTowers tech team. Someone make them coffee!

Yes and no.

I work in IT and secretly these kind of events can be weirdly fun. Much more interesting than routine stuff Grin

Should we be worried?

WTAF, they are all different usernames too. I feel stupid for having opened a few threads now. What kind of overload attack is it?

MoltenLasagne · 18/04/2024 10:59

Very frustrating!

KiwiOtter · 18/04/2024 10:59

Came on to say the same. Not seen this level of spam before!

Active has been taken over Confused

ImCamembertTheBigCheese · 18/04/2024 10:58

I reported a few but they must be being created electronically as there are loads!
