[19:02:55] @CVT Low-ish priority, but given the content of the abuselog spam, I think this spambot account warrants not being saved up for a MultiLock...

[22:42:24] No, it's a new account.\ [22:55:36] huh weird [22:55:51] cause the username patterns are like pretty much the same as those old messengergeekia spam bots from pre-april 2020 [22:56:06] the first name[number] usernames [22:57:36] idk [23:03:12] @DreamIsland and @BlackWidowMovie0000 Yeah, they are probably spam only accounts (a.k.a. spambots). What you can do is check the Special:AbuseLog on the local wiki, and see if they have any hits of attempted spam. Check their Special:CentralAuth page to see any other wikis to which they attached accounts and then check those wikis' abuse logs. If all you see are attempted spam hits, then what you can do is tag CVT in #cvt with [23:03:13] the usernames as spam only accounts for locks. These are low-ish priority locks, though, so it's best to save up a dozen or so spam only accounts, then post one message to CVT to lock them in a batch with Special:MultiLock [23:04:37] ok [23:05:06] my wiki hasen't got attacked by spambots [23:05:09] yet [23:06:49] @(h~)Hookuai Regarding this block comment in #cvt-feed..."

Swearing in block summaries is fine, but calling other users degrading or otherwise wholly negative names like "idiot" is not okay.

I don't know how to at least cool down on my temper but I know I don't like users like that ban evading. [23:10:58] Either way, you have to control your temper.

Focus on their problematic or inaccurate edits, not the user. 🙂 [23:12:34] and you can also let them know that if they make too many nonsense edits, you may follow it up with a block 🙂 [23:17:50] yup
