Just a quick note to thank the users who take the time to report spam threads for us. Reporting a thread informs all of the moderators and it can be swiftly acted on. Normally we can go from 'Reported thread' to 'user banned forever' in about four minutes. If a thread's still there, the it means that we've either not seen it, or no one's reported it. Trust us, we're not keen on spam either.
We have pretty good anti-spam safeguards, but we're no longer fighting spambots as they tend to have real computer people behind them.
Anyway, thanks for that 🙂
Chipps
You are welcome
How many reports do you get? I have reported a few but I did wonder if you were getting 3000 reports in 0.3 seconds
No probs 🙂
No point clogging up your / our forum with idiots posting rubbish on here.
Oh! 😳
No worries, it's the least I can do.
Thanks for the thanks
I nearly clicked report post on this one as it contained spam..but imagined a swift ban shortly after so refrained
my pleasure
The baby gets me up pretty early and there is usually some sort of nonsense from china waiting in the classifieds.
We have some moderators who appear to not sleep either, so feel free to report stuff at any time of day...
Do we get a badge?
I think there should be a sticky giving thanks to those that have reported stuff.
No there shouldn't. I like my anonimity in doing my bit by reporting spammers.
