Thanks Trent for bringing up the topic of spam on this forum and how we can solve it.
Thanks also for accepting to become a moderator, the time and efforts spent by the moderators to make this forum clean and useful is appreciated, it is a community service that all the forum visitors should be thankful for.
Trent, You are now officially our new moderator, you will be introduced in our November Newsletter.
I think the "advertise here" forum should be there so that the other forums stay clean.
Do email me/keith/vinyl any other suggestions that you have,
Thanks,
Mufad. |

I congratulate you too and wish you all the best at you mods possitions - welcome to the society of dead poets
I dont think this issue is closed here - I still dont see whats is the spam fight strategy which is supported here, both on mods/users/Mufads side? If its plain moderation, I still think we need more moderators.
And Mufad, after all things said in this topic, you decided to leave Advertise here forum, right? Why, in the name of God? Dont you think that that content is apsolutely useless/wothless? I doubt SPAM should reside there at all. It should be nowhere, IMHO.
System changes can certanly help - I just emailed you regarding new feature that I think we should implement - report post button in each post - it would allow users to act instantly, with a single click on the "Report post" image - mods of that forum will recieve email notification consisting of abusers/reporters username and direct link to the problematic post. |

That's a pretty nifty idea vinyl - the "report abuse" button is something I see in quite a few forums and I think it would prompt more people (users) to interact with the admin and help to combat the spam problem.
The advertise here section - I'm neither for nor against it - personally, if it's gone, it's gone, if not...then oh well - I know it's not a place I actually frequent
Trent - CONGRATULATIONS!!! Woo and hoo - we have a new mod! |
