Connection Spam from BL_ID 224069, Probably Automated, random ASCII name.

[Snow2]

So, I have been hosting a freeplay server lately and this odd account joined, spammed a string of text, and disconnected, before repeating those three steps over and over. It was a right pain in the ass to permaban them, as you'd expect from someone (Something, likely) connecting and disconnecting faster than once every second. Here's a screenshot of the incident.



Has anyone else run into this BL_ID or any bots like this before?

This happened on Alxetora's Snowblight Early this around 12 CST, Alxe did permaban them from the Clear Bricks Menu, which keeps a log of the connected players.

Odd. This happened around 1 AM CST. That's an hour difference, and if we assume the bot was doing this to multiple servers within this time period I'd expect multiple people to be talking about it.

Now a days, this is more common then you would expect. Everyone can get their hands on spam bots such as Ikea Man and Betelgeuse, just to name a few. I'll black list the spammer from my server just in case.

The same person did this to Crown's CityRPG. They were also banned from the server, but I don't remember what time it was when they were banned.
