People are copying our posts at Gamesas

Just a heads up to the moderators and everyone here.

People are copying our posts on this forum and reposting them on Gamesas under their own name.

Really funny because someone "Sara Lee" copied my script that I posted here, breaking it into normal text... which looks insane.

AND you can clearly see all the "KC***" in the integer names... LOL. ( Those are my initials! )

Are people really that sad to get post counts? Or is that website just full of bots?

Not anything new. Such a strange website.

That's just some weirdo copycat site of the gamesas forum, it's been around for ages, I don't know what it hopes to achieve but your posts get a random name and avatar. Be nice if someone put a stop to it! I think there's a few foreign websites that even flog our mods despite clear warnings.

I wonder about the malware.........reminds me to do another virus check.

There are a few sites that do this, and we have let the admins know about them.
Some seem to get shut down, but other persist.

It is surely all automated by a bot, so no "people" are manually copying posts you make.
Thanks
