I did. It definetly works, and it's definetly removing posts, but it doesn't remove all of them. Our most aggressive brigand and spam bots seem to be able to get around it, and I have no idea why.

Have you considered asking the admins, who when asked by me and half a dozen other people here are baffled that you haven't fixed it yourself?

Or even the ConPro guys who have actually driven this fucker off?

He did ask the ConPro mods. Our responses were pretty much all the same: "hire more mods to keep moderating active throughout the day."

So why haven't you done that?

Yes, and the ConPro staff haven't really given directions on the filter, specifically. I need to get on the Discord link that C sent a while back.

Because the accounts are “sleepers” who have been “seasoned” in some way. Here is the most recent one to slip by:

If you look, it’s over a year old, despite being a handshake still

That would explain one issue.
