Insufficient OP and can't tell if it's IC or OOC so it might not even be the right forum

So it’s useless to communicate with it?

/notamod, but yes, replying to or quoting adbots only makes it harder for the mods to clean their posts up, and of course does nothing to stop the adbot from continuing. So it's better to report the adbots, ignore them, and wait for a mod to come.
Edit: some spam that was quoted needs cleanup -

viewtopic.php?f=19&t=512598This sounds like spam, with no starter discussion.
Also:
viewtopic.php?p=39150031#p39150031 and
viewtopic.php?p=39133293#p39133293Looks suspicious and similar to spam.

Almost all the reports since Luna's have been about the same spammer / adbot. Multiple reports DO NOT HELP. If we have a link to the profile, we can see their post history in one click.
You ESPECIALLY do not need to make reports about threads in Moderation. We will see them. We know what to do.
It's a spammer, not rocket surgery. No one is injured by their nonsense. When one of us gets here, it gets taken care of.
