Odd posts in Weight Loss topics

2 replies

SilenceInside · Yesterday 18:35

At the moment there is a poster who is absolutely spamming the weight loss injections board, as well as posting on some threads in Weight Loss Chat and on other threads with a weight loss theme in other sections. Dozens of posts on old threads in quick succession, all lengthy but in that weird flat style that is redolent of AI. They claim to be taking various different weight loss medications from different companies and with any symptom that anyone else has mentioned in relation to WLI.

This happens regularly, always the same type of user name and in quick succession across lots of threads. Is there no way to identify this pattern and identify them as not a genuine poster without relying on other users to report all the individual posts?

Hi OP

We do have measures in place to stop banned posters from rejoining, but it would be very difficult to stop someone who is very determined from coming back. With regards to reporting - you'd only need to report one post to us for us to take a look at that poster and their contributions on the site. Can you report them to us using the report button, and we'll look into it?

Yes, I know that I can report them. I’ve just reported about 20 of their posts!
