Do you think I could just leave this part blank and it'd be okay? We're just going to replace the whole thing with a header image anyway, right?

Spambots

Don't reply to them.

Report and ignore.

Re: Spambots

Every time you reply to a spambot, you get a few seconds closer to death.

This is a false statement.

Re: Spambots

Replying to a spambot is "unofficially" against the rules. It may be officially added to the rules in the near future, but for the time being replying to the post won't get you a warning (I don't think).

Just don't reply to them, though. All it does is bring attention to the post where more users are vulnerable to seeing it. As Onjit said, report it and move on.

The sad truth is that nobody got warned for mini-modding in a spambot topic. I always saw: "Spambot, lock and ban".

Re: Spambots

It's because the topic is going to be banned as soon as a mod gets online.

I never read spambot topics, and nobody has ever reported a post in a spam topic for minimodding.
