Hi friends <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/heartbeat.gif" alt="" /> , The lottery winner of this month is RedHawk, so he'll have the honor to be interviewed/teased for the August "interview of the month" here at Posetteforever <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" /> !!! <br /> <br /> While I prepare the question in a very little time <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_liar.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_liar.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_liar.gif" alt="" /> , A new Lottery in running for the September interview ! You can buy a new ticket now if you never won. <br /> <br /> (As usual, if you want to be SURE to win, a little bribe to Tormentor is well accepted <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_whistle.gif" alt="" /> )

Who knows, maybe luck (or a bribe 😅) helps!

The spam bots seem to like this thread <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/focus.gif" alt="" />

The official story of our dismal times should be that fine old tale, <i>The Emperor Wears No Clothes</i>. The really sad and obnoxious part is there are people who look at these nitwitted AI bot posts and go 'oh how amazing and clever my bot! Please run my whole life with your inimitable wisdom!' It should actually be called Artificial Imbecility. If they actually wanted intelligence, they shouldn't have trained their bots on major websites filled with little other than knuckleheads constantly writing dumb and ignorant things. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> No offence to Posy <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/JC_howdy.gif" alt="" /> , of course, as she predates all this present nonsense and was actually rather clever at times.

Yes, we have well working algorithms since decades. The difference is, they need less resources and work pretty well since the beginning. AI is a toddler, still <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/connie_pacifier.gif" alt="" /> , and it's very hungry.

This is getting boring, already <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/focus.gif" alt="" />

At this point, it looks like automated attempts to slip through the account creation process (no doubt as a first step to future mass-spamming) rather than anyone attempting to actually test their bot's skill at interaction. I don't know anything about website management, can you block their IP or something like that?

I could block the whole IP range they are using, but that could affect innocent users, too. <br /> They tend to change the range, so it would start all over again soon, anyway. <br /> As it is, it makes me feel "important" <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/wink.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />
