Sniper Central Forums Bot Sniper Confirmed Kill List
Ah yes.... anyone who frequents forums knows what a bot is. An automated script that creates
accounts on the forums and then posts random posts with a link in the subject or signature.
The link itself going to the originators page, usually some advertising scam that pays the
displayer some money for every click through. Of course, the link on the forums page can also
be used to bump a search engine rating because its considered a link back. Well, what ever the
case may be, generally they are HATED and an effort has to be made to insure they are banned
quickly. Well, after a while, our users on the sniper central
forums were getting quite good at ID'ing them
quickly and reporting them to the admins. So, keeping with the theme of the site, and to help
promote this behavior, we decided to keep a confirmed kill list for the forums users with bot
kills. A confirmed kill is awarded by the mods and admins of the forums to the person who correctly
identifies as bot and reports it to a forum admin/mod. So.... keep up the good work!!!
