Next to the Broncos, the next set of fans I despise are Seahawks.

The Seahawks fans are by far the worst. I've been to a dozen or more Packer road games at some of the classical worst stadiums. Oakland, Chicago, New England to name a few. Nowhere have we ever been treated as bad as Seattle. I mean, I used to love beer, but not poured over my head.

Looks like there might be another.

As a fellow "big buck hunter" this looks shady. The profile picture for the op is from a promotional photo for vortex according to Gemini.

Yep. This guy got banned after some weird stuff in another thread, and got flagged again after re-emerging. Definitely suspect.

Good catch. May be another one of those recently hijacked accounts, that have been dormant for several years.

In just 10 posts he has said...

"kindly"

Spelled boys "bois"

Referred to a mod as "my b"

And much more, weird off the wall crap. Sus is an understatement.

I just went to do a reverse-image search on this guy, and discovered something extremely interesting: google won't let you reverse-image search a photo if it has certain gun or hunting content, saying it goes against the guidelines. That's a very convenient thing for a scammer wanting a believable avatar while wanting to keep from being outed on a hunting forum.

So it has come full circle from not trusting FNGs, to WKRs getting accounts hacked and being used to scam, back to all FNGs with less than 30 posts being suspicious

Eh, "bois" (meme culture spelling) and "my b" (my bad) is just slang. Less bot/scammer-like IMO.

Plus, his hotdog answer was kinda funny. But then went back to bot/scammer like posts. Almost like it was a real person turning off/on the bot (if that's how these things work).

The avatars with the round glasses are freaking hilarious. What was the original QuietKing thread again? i didn't get to finish reading it..

I'm not convinced. Maybe we need to put fng's through Rokslide boot camp before they can post anything at all.

Ive seen text conversations that you cant even comprehend. Texting as the main form of communication for younger generations has created its own language.

S/he definitely loves the 7mms.

Sure, we may be casting too wide of a dragnet. But if an FNG creates an account and posts 10x in the span of a few hours, with a total of < 50 words for all of those - then they are clearly here for the classifieds. And if that same behavior happens to a 2 year old account, in the middle of the night (for the US), and the wording is "off" - then my eyebrows are raised. I'm not pushing for a ban in either of those scenarios, but the mods seem to have found some of these to be suspicious enough to ban them (perhaps because they see IP info that we don't, etc.)

I was really just trying to find real scammers to waste their time, much like my Robokiller app does with the "Answer Bot" feature.

100%.

I'm mostly in for burning the paid, professional Russian trolls trying to piss people off and divide our community against each other.

Interesting. I have learned a lot about potential bots and scammers from these threads in the last few weeks. I would say most of us FNG's, especially we older crowd, have no idea they existed or what a big problem Forums have. It was only after I was attacked and called a liar on a post that I started to realize there is a backstory in what some of you are reacting to. Now I get it. but, some of the bot police need to chill out a bit. Most of us humans are here for the love of hunting and the outdoors.
