Yeah, it's all over the place, page after page. I have reported it but suppose no admins or mods have been here for hours 
Looks like they started to flood the place about 7 hours ago.

One tip you can do is report the post, then click to ignore the username. All of their posts will auto hide from your feed

That is a great idea, but I still hope they can disappear even though they are invisible for me

There are no bots removing spam here though there are filters to keep some spam out. Best thing is to Report it and then it's up to one of the 6 or so people who clear the spam out to check the Forum and start scrubbin'!

Yes, I did.
When it comes to more than 2 pages, manually reporting spam isn't that efficient.
I really expect we will have AI bots to hunt them down spontaneously.
Anyway, I am really grateful that forum admins scrubbed them up timely.

In time. There were a couple dozen this time. Oddly enough, it seems like the names were all hand typed, probably. Gotta love AI

Imo AI would make too many mistakes currently. Best to do it manually instead of letting innocent's get hurt

Agree with you. I just want to make use of AI to reduce the workload of moderators

Incessantly or intermittently spam makes forum admin daunted I assume. Manual removing spam seems palusible, but I firmly believe there will be a more effective solution for that. The spam haunts like virus frequently.I can not believe this, the spam is back
When you erase them all, they emerge soon.
I don't think manul work is a good option.

The AI craze everywhere is worse than the spam tbh. Maybe humans will entirely stop thinking in the near future, and we'll call it progress, while the environment burns and several Morrises and Fizzes are counting the mountains of gold?

Oh crap, here we go again. Seems like these buggers do it every day now? Bots or not, it's very annoying and basically makes the forum impossible to use until it's all removed. Wish there was a more permanent solution, but these things are always an arms race of sorts

Just curious why they chose Stardew Valley forums.Oh crap, here we go again. Seems like these buggers do it every day now?

I don't think we have high traffic here
Yes, I expect we can have a solution to resolve the problem once and for all.

I mean stardew valley is a cool game and all but I doubt that our forum has as much traffic as some other games forums or other sites. Kind of weird, maybe AI bots like stardew valley or something?Just curious why they chose Stardew Valley forums.
