I'm noticing a suspiciously large number of new signups with names that look like they were generated by an algorithm.
Can the new folks within the past 48 hours or so please introduce themselves? Thanks!
Other admins: is anyone else seeing a recent bout of of signups with oddly-consistent random combinations of phonemes, all within the past 24-48 hours?
@woozle yeah I've been reporting them all day on social but idk if anything's been done yet
they keep linking to what appear to be bootleg video sharing sites / hosting sites but i'm def not clicking those links.
@woozle if you want to see an example, @stuarabinta has one up. these have been coming to social for at least the majority of today.
@ryanlittlefield I rechecked just now, and three of them have tooted spam just like that.
I'll keep rechecking and suspending.
@ryanlittlefield
I haven't seen any posting activity at all yet; I would probably have suspended for just posting a link and nothing else.
