^^^ Yikes

The bossy and demanding GDIs are also spamming the board.

NinjaPoodle 08-16-2014 11:12 PM

Report them so we can ban them.

"Steve Austin Return in Smackdown Rumor"

I've never been so disappointed to find out a thread was just spam :(

I always feel silly reporting spam since I figure the mods see it, too. I don't want to create a "Yes, yes. I KNOW!!" kind of feeling, so I tend not to report it. But I'll give it a shot...

I report spam a bunch of times. I hope the mods don't say "Oh no, there she goes again." This is getting ridiculous!
Another board I frequent reviews first posts before they are posted. No spam there at all.

Folks, we are down to one supermod, who is very busy in his non-GC life, and the regular moderators can only get rid of spam in the forum they moderate. Many of our regular moderators are on GC infrequently, if at all. Sorry.

I think some promotions are in order! :)

I was going to suggest that. Maybe time for some new or additional mods.

I noticed that the Spam was showing up more frequently and wasn't getting deleted. I wonder what happened to GC. It was so much fun when I first joined. We didn't have any Spam back then. At least I don't remember there ever being any Spam back then.

Wait... What about PenguinTrax? Isn't she a supermod?

Yep. What she said.

PT is not on often and is probably tired of coming back solely to clean up spam. She has many irons in the fire.

As a mod, every time I log on I report spam so the forum mod(s) or supermod can kill it. The more reporting the merrier I think? Seems it's gotten really bad the past few weeks though.
