    Forum Robo-Spam

    is it just me or are there too many offers to 'watch free movies'? are these robo-spammers at least donating to the forum?

              Spam really pisses me off. Spammers posting on a forum that I am an active member of is like a stranger coming into my house and spitting on the floor. I just don't like the disrespect it shows to the members of this forum.

                lol, why not make it so that you have to solve a captcha for your first five posts, or solve a simple math problem? Or better yet, solve some basic algebra, that way there are less idiots posting here. :D

                  How about we have a keyword to enter when we see spam posts?

                  How about spammer in all caps? Then we just tag the threads. A mod runs a search, and deletes all tagged threads. Easy.

                        It's blindingly obvious when a mod runs a "view new posts" search as to which threads are spam.

                        I delete probably 20 threads a day (no joke) and I would say the other mods are at similar levels. If you guys are whining about seeing 10 a day, you'd be shocked at us leaving them be for a day.

                            I see it. You guys got your hands full. My only complaint is that it's a pain in the ass having to wait one minute between reporting posts.

                              This. Any chance the wait time could be cut in half?
