Paycor? That's where I did put all my retirement savings money in this bank!

OK, I'll go check my balance.

Anyone else is worried that at some point a newcomer would write a geniune Ravenloft post in a foreign language and it would get reported as spam?

While I get the concern, I think that just running the words through a translator like Google Translate or DeepL quickly shows whether they are genuinely interested in the setting or trying to sell something or give spam-ish indicators. I'm pretty sure when mods see those posts they double-check to make sure if they're legit or not. That and new users can also introduce themselves in the thread for that, but those are the measures that would help.

User Norristwera on the main Ravenloft forum is clearly a bot that just spammed their own post in Russian advertising for home healthcare visits in their first post and who knows what else.
