How do you think us moderators feel Tongue

My inbox is exploding with reports. I'm getting hundreds each day.

I believe that your inbox for PMs are different then where reports are sent to. Unless you are talking about your email inbox for the email that is associated with your forum account.

I find those bots interesting for some reason. I remember one that randomly assembled words of celebrities and words that made no sense at all. They make the site fuller, but they don't grab any significant attention if you just don't post about them.

How many of them are mine? Not bothering with it anymore though, unless its morning when you have to "remind" the patrollers.
@OP this has been discussed more than 6 times by now, one example

Yeah they just posted more of them in hardware.

I won't bother to remind the mods as it looks like too many of us are doing that.

The past few days I've seen a ton of bogus posts from brand new users that are just basically random words thrown together. What gives? I've seen this on other forums before, but never here...

At least my "report to moderator" finger has been getting a workout Tongue

you and me both I must have reported 15 or 20 of them.
