Spamming Problem / Mod Assistance

[Heimdall The Watcher]

First off, I just want to address the disgusting spammers that keep showing up lately; I don't suppose it would be possible (even for YCMaker if he bothered to look at this) to tell it to filter certain things, like all the gibberish, or prevent someone from posting anything identical/similar in multiple forums within a certain period of time?

 

And second of all, this issue just gave me an idea, don't know if it would be any use or what, but what if there was something specific, like a code, that could be posted by someone who wants the attention of a mod? Then a Mod could do a search whenever they have the time, and inspect the issues being brought to their attention? Anyone who abuses this is getting the attention of a Mod anyways, hopefully reducing the risk of such abuse.

 

Comments?

There's a report button to the downer left of any post. Clicking it, then entering a message explaining what exactly is wrong with the post (e.g. in your case, spambot), will make a moderator aware of the post and deal out appropriate punishment.

Ah, got it...sorry about that, hadn't noticed it before, and didn't seem like there was such a thing at first - it would hardly have been farfetched to imagine YCMaker didn't include it. If no one has any comments on the first part, then I suppose this should be locked. Sorry again for the confusion.
