Hello everyone! Sneaks here. I wanted to let you guys know that we're aware of the problem with the horde of spambots that have taken over the forum.
I'm currently in the middle of trying to weed out the unwanted annoyances - hundreds of accounts have been banned so far, and thousands of posts and comments have been removed.
I wanted to make everyone aware - quite a large number of these spam accounts are regular users that have apparently been compromised, and are getting caught in the crossfire.
For your security and safety, please take the time to go into your settings, and update your password just in case. If you're one of the unlucky few whose account was stolen, please let me know and I can see what I can do. You can contact me on /rRimWorld as OneTrueSneaks (https://www.reddit.com/user/OneTrueSneaks/), or in the Unofficial RimWorld Community Discord server (https://discord.gg/UTaMDWc) and the The Official RimWorld Development Discord (https://discord.gg/f3a5UHRXVA) as Sneaks.
Please be patient with the spring cleaning. Hopefully soon, this place will be livable again!
Great job! Looking forward to using this forum again.
I hate spam. Good to know that someone's working on it. Keep up the good work.
