: Admins Do Something About SPAM
QWKSRT 06-11-2008, 01:54 PM I don't post much but read a lot of threads and use the ACTIVE TOPICS link daily. That link is quickly becoming useless with all the old threads that come up with a SPAM post in it.
Admins: Please make this site more useable and police it more often for spammers.

Agree, I've reported like a dozen spamers recently
Matt McKenzie 06-11-2008, 02:33 PM Maybe the admins could give the power to one of the members that is trusted, and online almost everyday, just to delete the obvious spammers.....might make things a little better!
OurZoo 06-11-2008, 08:04 PM I've asked for some help as I 'm usually not on during the afternoon. So far a decision has not been made. I did just check the posts that were reported this afternoon and the spam has been removed and banned. Sorry, but I myself cannot do any better than that.

I know dude, it was really directed to the admins I know moderators don't have as much control as the admins do. Was just frustrated earlier when 4 out of 5 posts I read were bumped from SPAM.

How would you suggest that they stem the flow?
Derwood98 06-11-2008, 10:10 PM Well, like the performance site. They post, I ban and delete! Easy as pie. :D
Matt McKenzie 06-12-2008, 06:31 AM I think a couple of the regulars should get deleting priveledges, since they are on all day, hahaha....I am sure they would know what is spam to delete, and then could leave the banning up to you and the admins Drew!!
Mango 06-12-2008, 09:19 AM I vote for Matt, Houston or Ace for moderator!! Hell, there are lots of good guys on here that could fill the roll perfectly.
I could never have the ban stick, I'd be banning people left and right hahah =P
Nah I'm just kidding..

Matt McKenzie 06-12-2008, 10:30 AM Thanks for the vote JT, but I am off and on. I am not on that much at all during the weekends, just while at work, hahaha! Houston, yes......Ace, man, that power in his hand might be scary, haha!

Mango 06-12-2008, 11:24 AM I think Ace would be good! I'd pay money to see Jred have moderator powers for a day. That would be epic.
Matt McKenzie 06-12-2008, 11:41 AM I think Ace would be good! I'd pay money to see Jred have moderator powers for a day. That would be epic.
Holy sh!t....you know he spends a lot of time online drunk, right?!?!?! Sh!t, I get drunk calls from him at 3am....now that's love......but, think of what might happen to the site if he had that kinda power!!! Haha...it would be fun to sit back and watch though!
