ok why is there a sudden surge in bots posting ads into the forums

58.7k Boeing727200F  yesterday

it feels like every hour or so a bot pops in and leaves an ad in the forums and dips. it feels like less then a week ago a bot being signed in the forums was something very rare. now I see like 1 as of posting this.
what is going on why is there a surge in bots?

    For every Heathen that falls there is another to take its place...
    The task of righteousness is cruelly unending,
    And the destruction of The Enemy is impossible.
    He sends his minions to do his bidding,
    And he cares not when they die in his service.
    His servants are innumerable,
    And his power does not wane.
    His grasp is small,
    But it is ever-growing.
    Even as we speak he takes over one,
    Destroys another,
    And so gains new domain.
    Thus, our power is decreasing,
    Our numbers are failing.
    When we die there are none yet to replace us,
    None take up the cause of their fathers,
    None join the plight of their ancestors.
    And so we fight.
    Alone.
    Hopelessly and helplessly alone.
    Fighting without victory in sight…
    Yet we fight just the same.
    Our spirits are not dampened!
    We fight!
    We die!
    To the last man and the end of the world!
    We fight!
    We die.

    @Graingy yeah but Roblox did replace all of their human moderators with AI.
    when they could have definitely hired more and payed them a living wage

    @Boeing727200F well tbf SimplePlanes is far smaller than Roblox. Forum vs. game/game engine.
    That's why SP is better than large sites

    @LunarEclipseSP it only flags posts, not removes. That’s how it should be.
    Bot posts are being removed, whether by player report or automod. It doesn’t really matter.

    @TheLoadingGorilla wha
    @LunarEclipseSP Honestly it's probably best to not interact at all. At the very least, addressing anything to the bot is completely futile since it does not know nor care. It's like talking to weeds. Talk to the other people who come to look at the weed problem instead.

    Oh don't we forget we also got counter bots too (aka AutoMods)
    .
    PS, those ads are gone now.

    Well you know the drill and the trend...
    Make sure to leave the message "Nice try, Diddy!" after you're reported it.
    .
    But if mods were too slow to taking care of it then it could gone by themself (self-destruct)
