    There were 5 or 6 from the same account about 30 minutes ago. You can report accounts also, in this case it was obvious. Joined today, 6 posts (all spam), account reported for spam.

    Cool and thanks for reporting back. there must be some key words they use like ''Muscle M***'' or something else that could stop them from posting in the first place. JW

    So if a thread is reported twice, it automatically gets quarantined and disappears.
    Is there a similar feature for reporting accounts?
    If an account is reported twice, in a short period, can their posting privileges be temporarily suspended until a mod can ***es the account?
     
  12. The parasites are going flat out right now. I'm reporting them flat out.
    I've found if you report em twice, they get deleted as soon as you send second report, so go hard guys, report em as spam, let's keep these ****ers off here.

    It just ****s. He can copy and paste new posts, faster than I can click report, and wait to click it again.:mad:

  14. Yep, I just used up twenty minutes reporting them, you have to wait a certain amount of time between reports, to do it again, and they're coming thick n fast.
    The mods have said before, that they get rid of a lot we don't see.
    I like to do my bit, and treat em like scammers.

    I hear ya. I work 2nd shift, so when I get home around midnight, and that's my awake/unwind time.
    I try to zap as many as I can, but they're really going full tilt, now.
    Prolly should be bangin on my Coupe, but me thinks the neighbors might not enjoy it, as much as I do.

    Reporting them with multiple posts pick on the poster name and say how many posts they have made.

    All I am doing is cutting and pasting into the report > SPAMMER with multiple posts.
     
  22. I'm not sure how to do that with multiple posts. You can't just go to their profile and report that either.

    You absolutely can report their account on their profile page.
    It's small type in the top right corner.

    I wish we could capture Baba Ji and wire his typing hands to this y-block cross over pipe and watch him scream for a good half hour. yblock.jpeg
