I would suggest adding a mandatory approval by a human mod before a new account can make a post, AND also in addition to that a Shibboleth type question, only solvable by those who speak English fluently and are interested in progressive rock music. Answers verified by human modertaors of course. ;)
Just do it.

So this "person" created an account on a forum about prog rock music, and the first thing they did was promote a shady AI scam website. Wow.

^ It has not been uncommon to do that when promoting one's new album, and it is in PA. I personally don't feel action is required at this time despite duplicate topics generally being discouraged.

Maybe you could simply lock one of them? Just for convenience, to keep potential feedback/discussion located in one place.

If comments build up from people, I will merge them into one topic and likely will close the other. I'd rather wait until it's not just a potential, but an actuality. That does present more work, but I don't anticipate mush feedback in both threads. And, there are other reasons why i would. I don't feel any action is needed at this time, and it's not spam.
