Serious SPAM

IanW
By IanW

User 'Cai' has flooded the place with Spam - dredging up loads of old threads. Is it possible for the Mods to instantly blitz him/her and all the postings?

Could we have a 'report spam' button. Only the orginal posts have a 'report offensive' button. Spammers joining the end of a thread cannot be easily flagged as offensive spamming idiots.

Apologies if this has been dealt with before - I'm a newbie and I'm horrified by the amount of spam lying around in QL. I know being a Mod is a thankless task - but maybe we can help given a couple of forum tweaks...
Cheers

Mod’s are snorting hard 'n loud!

They might as well just shut down the website. Then no more spamming reports, or old forums popping out of anicent graves.

If I stick around, and when I know more about the site's admin methods, I might well volunteer. Right now unless there is more drastic pruning of spam and outright nonsense, I won't be staying long enough to learn.
