What is irrigation called in English? It’s about posting meaningless posts on forums. For example, he likes to post spam on forums. How should that be translated? Thank you; there are ratings for replies, and experts are welcome to help

I looked up explanations and translations of \"watering\" online, and personally I think these terms are quite reliable. bump: Top, agree with the previous comment, support it. Some people post repeatedly in forums in order to earn points; when replying to others’ posts, they don’t leave any constructive comments but simply express “agreement” or “support,” with content that has nothing to do with the topic. This phenomenon is called “bumping” in English – it refers to posting a reply in order to push a thread back to the top of the list of active threads. This is also known as “necroposting.” Spam: Such posts are often considered to be spam, that is, unwanted messages. Welcome to join the discussion!

Can we use “talking rot”, which means talking nonsense?

Comment spam is a more appropriate term. . .

Originally, it referred to filling water into a container; with the advent of the Internet and electronic forums like BBS, it came to also mean \"posting messages on forums\". The act of watering is called “add water”; according to what has been passed down among internet veterans, this is closely related to the former U.S. President Reagan. It is said that Reagan was a BBS enthusiast, and during his presidency he often used electronic bulletin boards to go incognito and learn about the hardships of the people ; He also made many online friends using the ID “add water”, but no one knew that he was the President of the United States. It was not until he stepped down that Reagan revealed this secret to a few close friends ; In a short time, things escalated like an eruption from a volcano; all those who wanted to build relationships, those with grudges, and those who wanted to reconcile their differences all got involved. Emails and posts poured in like a flood, and the poor website owner didn’t dare to delete them, so he had to buy more hard drives one after another. Eventually, through collective effort, the website was brought down... It is said that Reagan later compensated the website owner, but the effect of “adding water” also spread in this way, and it eventually reached Taiwan, where it was translated directly into Chinese as “ Irrigation”. -----This is a rather interesting explanation I’ve seen; it remains to be verified
