Here is how to find a bot.

If you think you found one, please PM a staff member a link to its profile, or report it the normal way.

#1: Bots usually have random names, names that do not make sense, irrelevant names, or non-"og" names.

#2: I've noticed that the bots have birthdays in february in the late 80's.

#3: Many bots post in other languages, this is an obvious reason to report a bot.

#4: Also, many bots have low or medium time spent on the forum.

#5: They don't have avatars, or a signature.

Here are some example that will likely be banned soon.

http://uzigaming.com/member.php?action=profile&uid=1309 ( I accidently repped it. I suggest saving the rep due you can only do it so many times a day. )

Notice their birthdays.

Reporting a bot is a great way to keep the UG community clean and organized. Please don't hesitate to report a bot. If it is a real person, we will figure it out, so don't feel guilty if you aren't sure. :blackhat:​

You deserve the sticky, it's some useful information when trying to spot the bot accounts.

Also, moved to another section. This is a different type of 'bot'. xD

Yeah, I wasn't sure where to put it. xD

I thought it got deleted.

Your awesome.

I saw, haha. Thanks again. May want to close this so people don't report bots on the thread, but if you leave the posts (like this one) that would be great. Gives me "inspiration". xD

EDIT: Nevermind about the close, it will be okay.

Also, bots usually have referral links or odd/suspicious links on their profile and have "ICQ Number:" listed (not many people have them.)
