Thx for sharing :smiley:. These scammers never get tired at all. This is especially a concern for new users entering web3 imho. Those like us being longer in the space are more aware of this problem and have set up proper opsec rules, e.g. not clicking anything in emails etc.

I’ve deleted 6 comments on this post because they were just copying and pasting what I wrote over and over again. This is spam. Please don’t post spam. Thank you.

I would advive the team to reduce the amount of words one has to type.

One may have genuine comment, but because the words limit is large they just end up spamming instead.

You can’t solve a minor problem by creating a major one

I think increasing the character limit on both posts and articles is a great idea. There was alot of spam here over the last two months with many useless topics and comments.

Agree this, Sometimes really do not want to reply anything because of this obligation. At the same time, really tired to read those “gm” or “aptos to the moon” meaages in every topic. Still think, the new requirement is too hard to conform to… The balance shoud be.

I’m getting them too. Unfortunately, this problem isn’t limited to Aptos but just another risk of being in the crypto space.
