FabSwingers.com forum: Status deletion, New Profile bots

I've been reporting a lot of profiles lately for having zero information, gibberish name and location, as they're obviously bots (come on, who is going to remember wufjfheyrjfhdhrh to type in as a username?), I hate that they clog up search results which should be filled with genuine people looking for fun with others.

Lately there's been so many, I posted a status about it.

Later in the day, that status had disappeared.

Posted another status decrying the amount of apparent bots.. Again, deleted.

I'd like to know why site admin are capable of deleting my status (which few would see) but not the offending blank profiles of nonexistent persons, which anyone can see (and, in my opinion, are making the site less useful, Bots were the reason I came here from other places, as at least most people on here are genuine)

O o O oo

All offending profiles if verified as bots were dealt with ( the ones you reported today were ) Admin don't want bots like the rest of us

As bots/ spammers are not allowed on the site neither is rule breaking on the status, if it was removed then it must be something Admin don't want on the site , just like the bots

That's what's puzzling me, it was literally just "I've been reporting profiles that seem like bots" and the 2nd one was along the lines of "why are my statuses being deleted"..

Good that the fake profiles are being dealt with.
