What Exactly Are SPAMBOT And PYGURU On Nairaland? ? by KanwuliaExtra(op): 6:37am On Aug 07, 2018*

Are they programmed to BAN you if you use certain words or phrases? undecided

I posted on a thread and quoted a song title with “oh baby” in it . . . cheesy

And KABOOM. . . ! ! !
The “spambot” was provoked.
Is there a lexicon of words you cannot use on NL?
Why is this “spambot” just a nuisance? undecided

What exactly is it? DOES IT TARGET CERTAIN WORDS OR IDs? undecided

If you are banned by the “ROBOTIC SPAMBOT”, how are you expected to alert the mods without creating other IDs? wink

I don’t care to be a techno-guru since I have my own profession I am VERRRRRY pleased with. cool

Has SPAM-BUTTOCKS banned you? grin

Please, share.

On the “Sunny Neji” thread, I made reference to M*J*0M0 by Slim Case to illustrate that the music of this day and age cannot be compared to CLASSICS by Sunny Neji and the likes of Styl Plus.

E finish o! grin

The next thing I saw was TWO IRRRRRRRITATING ban notices FOR ONE POST! shocked

Who is the IDDDDDDIOT that designed such a program?

The spambot kicks in when you post the same words repeatedly on a thread.

Spambot thinks you are spamming the thread, get it?
