Hello everyone,
It is my growing concern that SimpCity has been infiltrated and crawled by many bots, which are copying the content (especially images) from threads and then posting on their websites and proxies. Initially I didn't care, but one day I created a thread on an onlyfans girl and posted a set of her images. Within some few days I checked her onlyfans bio, and she wrote that she found out about her pics being posted on random websites and traced it back to this forum. I then checked by searching her username on duckduckgo & google and got 100s of results from sites hosting the same pics I posted along with the same exact thread title. She eventually deleted her OnlyFans and wont be posting anymore. These sites are apparently are blacklisted on SimpCity, they are known for sticking their logo below an image (you know which ones I'm talking about).
From this experience, I have few questions for SimpCity mods and devs:
Thank you,

From this experience, I have few questions for SimpCity mods and devs:
- Is there anyway I can avoid these bots from indexing/copying images while posting?
- Will SimpCity take any action towards the growing concern of these bots or scripts?
- Does SimpCity believe in preserving these small content creator threads from being indexed and crawled?
- Is it really safe for me to post here anymore?
Thank you,
