Spam Posts?

[Jamo]

As I've said several times in the past week in different threads...hit the Report Post tab that's been on every post for years. It goes immediately to me via email (I'm the only moderator currently) instead of finding a thread/post like this or getting a PM. The email to me gives me a link to the suspect thread, which allows me to go directly to the thread even if I don't have the site open on my computer or phone. It takes me less than a minute to:

1. Ban the user permanently.
2. Delete ALL posts by that user on the site.

Typically,one spammer will do a mass posting in various forums on this site. I cannot see them all even when I have the site up....there are simply too many forums. I just need one member to tap one Report Post on one thread.

The last one you named above generated this post,and a PM from another member...neither which helps a whole of a lot without a link. Both of you would have me searching the entire site looking for whatever it is you're complaining about.

Hit the Report Post...and as described above I can wipe out dozens of posts as soon as I get the automatically generated email which includes the link to the reported post. Ron61 did it, and I had the user banned and all of his posts wiped out in a matter of minutes.

In the event you or others (some of whom have been here for quite awhile) don't know which button it is...look in the upper right hand region of every post on this site and you will see a cute little white triangle lined in red with an exclamation point in the middle. If you hover over it...it even tells you what it is.

Doesn't take any typing or suggestions or anything else...just tap it one time.

This site is huge, and it's 24/7...I move immediately whenever possible as soon as I become aware of a spam...tap the tab.

Thanks.
