Literally just put a new track up, then got hit by the spam bots trying to pimp Ramenrecords.

I reported the same bot 3 times and then continued on as they kept hitting me with more spam.

Why doesn't SC do something about this..

Ugh, I agree, it's the worst.
I mean you'll find Bots on any platform but it seems Soundcloud has the Biggest Infestation

I'm going to keep blocking and reporting these bot accounts. Wonder if the SC moderators will actually get a hint.

I noticed that if I hit "Report" on all three bot "likes" by the same bot that I get a new bot instance much faster than normal.

Yea It's a complete mess. Its like some weird system I don't know how it works. I remember being so excited when I was first using Soundcloud because I thought they were Real People

Is it only those 3 tracks that get spammed?
Im not sure if SC dosen't know, or just dosent care to be honest...

If it's any Consolation... the Track "Ancient Places" is lovely sounding.
I know thats totally not helpful to this situation but Its the best I can do
