I logged in this morning to see just tons upon tons of Chinese threads. Anyone else curious?

    I noticed that too, it was probably a troll. The good thing is that those threads were deleted pretty quick.

    I guess the real question is, did the poster have anything better to do?

    That's when a spam bot cracks into a forum.

    Speaking of spam bots, why are there so many spam bots in the global chat lately?

    The better question is... Who even uses global chat to know that spam bots are there?

    It's like starting a fire by rubbing two sticks together when you have a lighter in your pocket.

    I just pop my head in every once in a while thinking things will change. It will never happen.

    I disabled global pretty much the instant I was out of the tutorial, only the desperate and the mad tread those waters.

    So. It is understandable why they are so many Chinese spammers in global -- because you cannot disable global chat using simplified Chinese version! I take it as a chance to tell @Kabam Miike that this has been around since v2.0. Mind taking it to the team?

    I think something should be done about the spamming scammer bots in global. Won’t make
    things any better but at least it’s a start.

    We're definitely already aware, and are working on the situation. Unfortunately, it's a little bit more complicated to handle this situation than we had hoped, but we are still working on it!

    Can you please fix the AI, it is really getting on my nerves now.. going to make a discussion about it when I get released from jail in a few days so look out for that. This broken AI is definitely a serious thing and it must be fixed...
