Search & Purge

Today we are going on a scouting mission in the tags. Our target looks like this:

They post links with very similar titles. Posts have very, very random tags. My guess is that their software chooses 20 tags from a long list of words. Bots even appear under the suicide tag.

How to Search & Purge

  1. Search for a tag (sky, nature, batman etc)
  2. Go to ‘recent’ (not most ‘popular’)
  3. Click the arrow
  4. Click report
  5. Report for spam

This approach is different from purging the comments. This time we use the arrow button. Using the arrow reports the entire post. We DON’T want to do this when we purge comments, otherwise we report the OP who made a nice post and not the bot.

Pay attention to the tags porn bots use. They give you directions where to purge next.

Don’t forget the warrior ethos. We only report bots. We don’t spam ourselves. Don’t comment 'purged this post, 2pm’ etc.

Let’s go get them!

  6. grootiez said: @jellyfishin also bots like the most unusual word or tags with multiple meanings, for instance “Groot” could contain posts about that lovable tree, “Groot” could be the last name of someone, but Groot shouldn’t mean THAT.
  7. grootiez said: @jellyfishin yeah, especially “Groot” since its a popular tag because of Infinity War and Groot is a fan favorite character
  8. jellyfishin said: @grootiez​ Thanks for the tip. I managed to snag some via the “groot” and “wolverine” tags and I’ll be adding those two to my daily purge list. Some other Marvel tags like “spiderman” and “deadpool” didn’t yield any results for me, but not sure if it’s a timezone difference issue; from your experience, do they spam those tags daily, too? Or is it just once in a while? (Just wondering since it seems like the bots keep using certain tags and have stopped using others)
