    This is the second time that botting tracks has been a major problem in the last few years. ShozDog is just one of the authors that have been botted in the last few days.

    2 years ago the dislike button was removed to fight the bot army. This wasn't a very good way to get the bots to stop. Just bringing a little bit more attention to this issue. These tracks that are being botted are taking attention away from tracks that deserve the plays and likes.

    Here are a few ideas to fight the bot army...

    We need ideas to get rid of theses criminals, ideas would be appreciated

    I already DMed the mod's on this issue. I wanted to prevent another cesspool of a thread like the "why zenblade needs to be banned" thread

    An anti bot would not be possible
    Yes, he does deny he bottled the tracks, while also posting that he learned how to make bots on his profile a few days ago. Boy I do hope someone got fired for that blunder

    Actually its a code that simulates a bunch of users and it spam likes or spam dislikes tracks giving up to hundreds of likes/dislikes at a time per track.

    Pretty much... like I said before this isn’t the first time it’s happened. We had a bot problem a couple years ago and the like button was removed

    It’s not the dislike button that’s the problem, it’s the like button. And taking that away will hurt the game
