Hello! Welcome to the guide of Spammers. This guide will bring information that you MAY not know about. Lets get started!
~ Spamming (Definition) ~
Spamming is when 2 or more things go through a server (comments, posts, threads, etc.) and is pointless itself. Many people spam just because they think its fun. Others might just want to annoy, whereas some people do it to lag up computers. Spamming has been commonly known as "an annoyance" throughout rob lox and is an issue.
~ Spammers ~
There is a lot of people who spam on rob lox. For instance, someone (or something) has been repeatedly making rob lox accounts and spamming false links to hacking sites. This is an issue because the links are false and may contain a virus from the bot that is spamming. This particular spammer is spamming EVERYONE (maybe even including you) on rob lox to get them to hack. How this happens: A 'bot' creates a bunch of accounts, sends messages, then leaves that account forever and moves on with the process.
~ How to Stop a Spammer ~
You can easily stop a spammer by going into setting (the gear on top right) and clicking setting. Follow the instructions below once you do so:
Gear > Setting > Privacy Tab > Who can send me messages > Friends only.
That way the spammer will have to be your friend instead of sending you messages randomly. This will however disable users that isn't your friend to not send you a message.

~ Bots ~
Bots is a robot that is programmed to automatically do what the programer wants it to do (in this case, its spam). Bots are commonly found on websites with account access. Bots are also a huge problem on YouTube, Google, Emails, etc.
