What up with all of the Chinese spam on here lately?

They are Spammer Bots just posting to Bother and Annoy other Users the only thing we can do is Report and Ignore it

thats a good question, wish i knew, ask yahoo

The posts you refer to come from spam bots, but one or more humans are programming them. They are being paid by the company they are posting for, to enhance search engine optimization for that company (or so it appeared when the posts began many weeks ago). We don't know when or if Yahoo will take action, although whomever is running YA’s Facebook page commented on 7-16-18 that it was being worked on (that comment was in reply to another user’s answer to a question about favorite flavor of ice cream, if you want to verify it). All we can do is report them, ignore them, or leave YA. The posts are ALL OVER the site. Hopefully they will be dealt with soon. MANY questions have been asked about this already (it amazes me so few people think to check in the Answers category to see if a problem with the site has already been addressed). The site's been heavily flooded with them since the weekend of 7/7/18.

Apparently Yahoo can not be bothered to try to keep the site spam free. Would not be the hard to filter by IP addresses or by language and limited Chinese entries to Chinese sites. But they have none done that yet.
