I figured out a way to stop the woot bombing! (sorta)

As you all now, every since the new update, there has been woot bombing! Now, I saw on Wednesday and early Thursday, this was not a problem. But late Thursday, yesterday, AND today, woot bombing has token over beta ee.

          I have figured out a way to stop this! And anyone can do this! Now, those woots used in woot bombing are from some sort of hacking program, I honestly don't know which (WPEpro I think). If you have entered one of these worlds, you will probably notice one of these two things. 1. The url is a lot of letters, not starting with pw (public world) OR bw (beta world). 2. Look at the woots/total woots. There is 0. This has led me to a conclusion that these woots don't exist, but are somehow made into woots showing form the lobby.

(SKIP HERE FOR THE REAL PART, THE LAST PART WAS EXPLAINING)

          So, right around when I am posting this post, someone has made 8 artificial worlds, spelling out fu*k (* = C) you, the space is a world. Each letter is too. I tested out, with my friends. And at least I said "HURR DURR LET'S REARRANGE THE LETTERS!". I tested this, giving the " " (space) world a woot. I thought it would tie in with the k, because each world only has a 1 woot difference(Of course, F and O have a 7 woot difference.). But I was shocked, seeing that the space was gone! It spelled out fu*kyou. I didn't bother looking for it, yet I have a theory. My theory is that real woots override the artificial woots. So I'm guessing it was still there, yet trapped with the little nublet worlds with only one woot from there beta friend.

          If everyone woots them, they will be gone! Hey, It's the only solution I can think of as a normal user (no powers). Sadly, 1 minutesish later, the " " world came back up.

TL:DR woot a fake world, and it's gone.

(P.S. I have used woot 16, no wait 17 times in this post(18 counting the title.).)

I was one of the friends. And yes, it works, at least until they make a new world and wootbomb it again.

Yeah, that's sadly what happened with the " " world. At least us normal users can prevent it sorta.

I found this out yesterday,
However wasting a woot, on a thing that can easily be replaced after a minute or so...
Wouldn't that be like counter-productive, after 5 woots, you can no longer do it.

I just say leave them there, and use the redefined lobby, it feels so much better

Everyone Woot these worlds use your last Woot and stop this once and for all!

Even spammed the Beta Only worlds aswell!
