Mornings are so entertaining on R3V

They have been doing more posts in legit threads vs starting new threads, makes it harder to find them. Anyone that takes the effort to notify us, thank you! Saves so much time scrolling and looking for new posts in the wee hours.

Me thinks it's about time to upgrade version of vBulletin

James is working on it.

also would be cool to implement the "Thanks" add-on

No it would not.

I found a few, but I could never find the report button? On Tapatalk and Browser versions..
There have been so many I've wanted to help you guys find, but have never been able to..

My question is.. What do these spammers have to gain from their antics? I don't get it

[ParsedOut]

No it would not.

Hmm, I'm going to go ahead and say this post does not deserve a thanks.

Ha! Touché.

Surprising you couldn't find it in the browser since the icon is right under your post count.

In Tapatalk you highlight the post, select the flyout menu (three dots, upper right corner), then select "Report."

Hah

Easy enough
I think I just looked for it where I thought it would be then gave up after not finding it there

Found it in Tapatalk, so we're good

NINJEDIT:
Thanks :up:

Holy shit agent, you just lost out on about 3 thanks for that one post. Your e-cred around here would be skyrocketing.

Anyway...good about the new version in testing and bad for all the spammers.

Parsed makes a compelling argument

At the moment I'm 6 hours ahead so guess I can start point em out again. Sorry been bored last couple of days. Been stuck in my hotel room for 48 hours awaiting a mythical alert that didn't come.

Everyone really has come together in reporting the spam! I woke up to like 15-20 reports, most of them deleted already, but a handful still active.
We do get a shit ton of spam here, and it is a lot of effort to find and remove it day in and day out. Many eyes/reports makes for fast removal.

Thanks everyone!

The real annoying ones; are the single posts in legitimate threads, don't over look those! if you see one, report it.

Could the moderators implement something like, all new account holders first 5 posts or threads they start have to be reviewed by a moderator before posting? And if it is spam delete their account on the spot and then none of their spam would make it through. You could just review their first post and go from there. Just throwing an idea out there.

I was on another forum that had a new members forum that everyone had to post in first. That would at least keep the spam in one place.
