I am sorry guys but I am really seeing it increasing on this board.

Anyway we can get it more under control? I have already done my part with reporting but it just doesnt seem to be enough.

We only have two mods right now it will take time but.. It will work out when Alex gets some more mods out here ... The top posters on the site like you Saint and Riku of course would be excellent.

I dont mean to complain but Riku-Sora is right.

There's been a huge increase of spam on almost all of the boards

I know I'm just repeating what he said but I thought I'd let you know that its getting worse.

I just now got your spam reports and they have been taken care of. Please continue reporting. (Sorry, I do have to sleep you know.)

Also, guys, you shouldn't expect us to WORK on christmas, christmas eve, or boxing day.
No offense, but the world at large has better things to do.

Fair enough. I'd be happy to scour the boards for all spam and problems at some point in the near future. I definitely agree, there's way too much.

I should also point out that almost any threads with 1 Rating are very likely to be spam.

Ah a robot. That explains everything.:D

What I am also seeing that both me an Riku are finding is that alot of the same questions are being asked over and over again without people caring to actually look before posting that has already been answered several times.

That is something else I found besides people just posting spam.

Umm Riku no offense but umm they can't control that. 20 people a day join this site.. There's bounc to be questions over and over asked..You just have to bite your tounge and be nice about things.. This is also an informative board.. No one knows everything.. Gotta help the people that are new and sure it may have been posted but I'm sure no one wants to look at every topic to find what their looking for..

Yeah, I agree.

Everytime someone joins and asks for help or anything, I am patient with them and explain them what they want to know. They have to get used to the boards, like that they'll stop spamming and stuff. Just give them time and explain them the rules clearly, or just.. make them read the rules! xD
We need to be nice to newbies. Remember that once we all were too and obviously we wanted the Seniors to treat us good ;)

If you get it in a PM tell a mod or an admin who's sending it to you if its a thread, do not reply and report it to a mod or an admin. ;)

It's that too.

Anywhoo, spam isn't specifically annoying messages, but pointless messages and threads (as well as advertising and swearing).

Meaningful questions are not spam.
