MSFN and its lack of search results in Google, Bing, and all search engines depending on them

Same here. But I used the MojeekBot user agent

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MojeekBot/0.11; +https://www.mojeek.com/bot.html)

And the Bravebot

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Bravebot/1.0; +https://search.brave.com/help/brave-search-crawler)

behaves in the same way. I also tested again the Googlebot and the bingbot. And with these bots, you can clearly see the Thai/Siamese-contaminated MSFN sites caused by "Cloaking". Here is a screenshot when using the bingbot user agent:

@nicolaasjan I'm currently trying to figure out why nothing is showing up with MojeekBot or Bravebot. It seems, however, that the malicious script or code on the MSFN server wherever it may be hiding isn't playing nice with Mojeek or Brave.  And that is most likely why Mojeek and Brave don't really have any issues with MSFN at the moment. But maybe, the hackers will update their malware at some point, and then that will be the end of those two search engines, too, when it comes to search results regarding MSFN.  And as things stand right now, they have all the time in the world, since the administrator @xper or supervisor @Tripredacus hasn't taken any action yet.

Death to MSFN, that's my view nowadays.  "Poking the ribs" isn't working.  If anything, it's seemingly having the exact opposite effect.

You can keep referencing @xper @xper @xper @xper @xper and @Tripredacus @Tripredacus @Tripredacus @Tripredacus @Tripredacus until you are "blue in the teeth".

"No answer is an answer."  THEY DO NOT GIVE A SH#T.  This is a NON-ISSUE to them or we would have ALREADY heard from them.

Maybe not @xper, but we would have heard from @Tripredacus.  THEY DO NOT GIVE A SH#T SH#T SH#T SH#T SH#T.

I am kind of waiting for them to LOCK THIS THREAD.  Still not give any ANSWER.  But LOCK THIS THREAD and see "that" as the only answer they "owe" us.

They could both just be on holidays, it's summertime, I'm going on a vacation, too!

Probably wait?

@NotHereToPlayGames I would appreciate it if we could remain as objective as possible, even though I cannot understand the administrator/supervisor’s stance.

A very probable scenario, nevertheless! Now remember what happened to @Karla Sleutel! She disappeared after posting her opinion and asking something I can't repeat!

Tripredacus visited her account the same day, and oops, she's gone!

I think there's a much bigger picture behind the scenes!

[NotHereToPlayGames]

You have your "tactics".  I have mine.  I really don't think it MATTERS anymore.  That IS my FACT-BASED OBJECTIVE VIEW.

Right! We'll have to wait some time. But this period will definitely come to an end, as the damage it is causing to MSFN is becoming increasingly severe.

Very wise, as usual! I'm also worried for the last remaining users. Which are so few now!

Agreed...

But remember, this was brought to their attention in FEBRUARY !!!

We *HAVE* been patient!  VERY patient!

@NotHereToPlayGames We shouldn’t take ourselves – or MSFN – too seriously. We’re talking about a forum here, tragically classified by @xper for some time now as a ‘communication forum’, but which I and most others still regard as a 'technology forum', with no infrastructure attached to it, where people can seriously come to harm. Perhaps both are away on holiday or at work, but that can’t be the case forever, of course.  And anyone stupid enough to fall for one of those Thai posts scams is beyond help.

There is a significant difference compared to February. We have proven here, unequivocally and beyond any doubt – with mathematical precision, so to speak – that the MSFN server has been compromised by malicious code. This can no longer be denied.  Any attempt to deny this would be embarrassing and would call into question the server operator’s technical competence.

That has already been DENIED by @Tripredacus and @xper way back in March:

https://msfn.org/board/topic/187750-sometimes-redirecting-to-spamgamble-site-when-accessing-msfnorgboard/page/4/#findComment-1285830

They are IN DENIAL that the problem is ON THEIR SERVER, they have PUBLICLY said so.

And they "refuse" to admit that they were WRONG in that assessment.

By the way - look at the kind of commercial/ad I see in both "My browser builds" and this topic.

[NotHereToPlayGames]

Wow!  I use Stylus and uBO both to prevent the ads and ad containers here at MSFN.  I do that because some of the ads would get me FIRED if female coworkers took them out of context.

I just disabled, reloaded the page, and got the below!  Now then, imagine what a female coworker would think if she saw this but was standing too far away to read it was about Sleep Apnea.
