ESP8266 Community Forum

- Fri Apr 29, 2022 2:25 am #94403 In last days there are many new forum members with long camel-case user names. Does somebody know what is happening?

- Fri Apr 29, 2022 9:56 am #94409 I'm not sure, so this is just a theory, but it looks like these messages (and users) are bots.
Most of the posts don't even make real sense on this board: eg. asking specific (ATMEL) Arduino questions and such.

Perhaps it's an attempt to become a "Regular" user first, before posting links to vague (and potentially dangerous) websites, like we had with users (in the last year or so) that had them in their signature.

I don't know, the only one that can check this is Richard.

Assumption is the mother of all f*ckups. At least: that's what I'm assuming.
