What happens when you don't report pornbots

What you can see here are among the most popular posts for the convin (Connor/Gavin Detroit Become Human) tag for the last month. And presumably lollipop, cityscape, rick day, eva long, dostoyevsky, and all the other random, unrelated tags added to these posts.

You can see two identical posts made by separate bots that feature a bit.ly (so, disguised, you don't know whether the address is safe/where you're going) link to a website that contains an image of a pretty young woman (but who knows what else).

Each post is liked by about a dozen other bots, and only bots. (I reported them all, so can confirm their profiles were obviously those of bots/porn bots.) Some of them even use the same image in the pfp. Some are developed blogs full of porn images, some are clearly newer and don't even have a pfp yet. They are all gaining legitimacy from each other by the likes which act as links to their Tumblrs, and adding legitimacy to the post they have liked, which links to their ultimate goal: the site where they make money in undoubtedly dodgy ways.

They are doing this to legitimise their websites for search engines like Google, but if you don't care about that, it has the same effect in your Tumblr tags.

If we don't stop them, ALL your favourite hashtags are going to be full of meaningless posts like this, and probably porn you don't want to see (very different from porn you DO want to see).

This is why we report and block, lads. Not just because they are annoying and irrelevant to us, but because if we don't stop them they will take over this hellsite, and they very clearly do not understand the nature of the hell in which we live.

[Edit:] I didn't expect this to go beyond my feed, who already know this, but report as SPAM. I've already reblogged other people with that addition on this post twice, so I won't reblog clog up the feed again, but I'm editing the original post so if anyone sees this (who didn't see Neil Gaiman's addition that said to report as spam) they'll see it here. That's the best I can do.

I don't know if anybody else following the #sherlock tag...

...is feeling the delicious irony of discovering that SO MANY NEKKID LADY BOTS are following it (and posting to it) as well.

Our Founder would doubtless have regarded this event with the usual trademark dry look, murmured "The personals are unusually... moist today, Watson," and turned his languid attention to the London society columns and the gazettes.

Hello sorry for tagging. I am very sick, my asthma is at its maximum level, my nose freezes, I have no medicine or food. I am in bad shape financially, I am a black disabled, who uses multiple medications, I pay for my food and lodging

Unfortunately I do not have all the resources to keep me safe, that is why I need your help, whatever you can contribute to me will be of great help.

17 ish hour old scam blog regurgitating the same lies as usual, hiding behind marginalized identities in case anyone catches on to their bullshit. I'm pretty sure a lot of these are run by a botter.

to report them on the android app, go to the pinned post and copy the link to that, then go to the thing next to "follow" and report for something else -> unlawful uses -> phishing, then just type in what's going on. remember to block them too.

Report and Block this Person

@neji-walks-hinata-like-a-dog

This person has posted ablest, transphobic, and abusive content just to name a few of their unfortunate qualities. They do not have a place in this fandom.

The lest we can do is ensure that their hateful posts are not seen by anyone. And if you see them in your activity, they have nothing of worth to say, so it is better to just ignore them.

There is more evidence on their blog, but I do not recommend going on it, it is a cesspool of hatred.

Does anyone remember the staffbots? They were named staff420690 or staff867530, they were everywhere for about 2 days, and then they all disappeared. Was that 2022 or 2021? I honestly don't remember.

My point is, those old bots came and went pretty quickly, but the new generation of spambots are spreading like wildfire and there's no relief on sight! People say that the current pornbots have names like jennifer300 or sarah2525 but no, the names the bots choose sound more like bad localizations of American athletes on the NES

They all look KINDA like real names, but just slightly wrong, senina, lebecca, jostice, ermily, vaguely name-like strings of letters.

I went back through my block list to look for specific examples, but they've all changed their names to random gibberish, prrsumably after having been flagged and blocked so many times.

Yesterday, this was full of names like mernany and shelsa and brichenne, but now they're all just keysmashes.

I swear, with these porn bots following my blog and me having to report and block, I can now fully appreciate Erik’s frustration when he’s trying to work and the bell rings summoning the siren.

Siren’s song and drown is Erik’s report and block.

Attn @staff​.

Just a thought about the design for a one-shot bot sniper button, and some wishful thinking...
