Someone enlighten me, please - JJ_SO - 09-28-2017
Does anybody know, why some stupid blokes write something like "great site! Thank God for it's existence" in cyrillic and Russian?
What's the point in doing so? Are there hidden links in their posts? Do we get redirected to malware sites?

I was guessing about the same thing...

Did you see this kind of spam at other sites? Fujirumors is spam itself, but I never read cyrillic there (not that I could read cyrillic, I use Googletranslate to get an idea what's this about...)

Perhaps it's a broken spambot - I mean, they forgot to insert the link. You know, nowadays, there are no more serious professionals...

I honestly have no clue, too. So far it was two accounts leaving these kind of messages. Both were created several weeks ago already, but obviously not used so far for any other posts.

I've disabled the automated forum registrations in the meantime because it became too tiresome.
Thus new users are granted manually. However, obviously I can only guess which accounts are kosher.
I'm no longer accepting registrations from .ru nor from yandex addresses but even gmail is used from spamming.

Oh my, lots of efforts... but still, I don't get it why this kind of same sentences is used continuously. Ever since the Russian hackers elected Trump (so to say), we tend to see them as IT gods of gods. But either it's a new sign of God doesn't exist or intensive consumption of vodka, I could not decide.

You forgot to mention that the Russian hackers also pushed the AfD in Germany...

Well, that was half hearted. 87% didn't elect any of them and within 3 months, so some of themselves say, they will have split themselves. "alternative" in this case means, "so different that we just can't cope with each other". Luckily...
