The votes are in! [BOT PSA]

You all voted and the results have been decided:

The amino will be fully opened to the public!

However, it is important to be aware that this will bring in more bots. Because of that we want to do a little overview on how to handle them.

First off, if you are dmed by a you don't know, do not click any links or share any personal information. If they start to get suspicious please either flag the suspicious message or screenshot it and an with the link, and then LEAVE and BLOCK. Do NOT communicate with a any further if you suspect them to be a bot. Leave them to us.

Secondly, if you're not entirely sure how to flag or the s, we highly recommend you aquaint yourself with the How to s Wiki. That way you're prepared.

Thirdly, if bots enter into public chats, if you're a host, make sure to get a screenshot of the bot behavior to send to us s before kicking and deleting the bot messages.

And finally, if you're worried about bot spam in your dms and want to get ahead of it, we recommend going unto your settings, and changing your "Allow Inbound Chat Requests" setting to " I'm Following" as this makes it so that bots cannot randomly DM you.

PLEASE NOTE THAT IF YOU TURN ON THIS SETTING AND YOU ARE NOT FOLLOWING THE S THEN WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO YOU IF A POST OF YOURS IS TAKEN DOWN OR IF YOUR GETS HIDDEN!!!

Stay safe out there!
