Nothing to Report

[Zloth]

Woo hoo! I got all the way through a full read without feeling the need to hit the 'report' button once! ZERO video spam!

Congrats to all involved!

Boy, did you get lucky!

Looks like we got over 800 spam posts per day in May on average. Our automated system catches well over 90%, reports from good folks like yourself catch most of the rest, and then the mods find the few stragglers. So it's in good shape, touch wood.

The more difficult issue is the amount of low value posts—'Me too!', 'PUBG!!' and their ilk—which mostly future spammers post, thinking a post count—or multiple likes—will get them around our defences. They're a pain when it's borderline between the usual and a possible legit post.

Stay lucky

Thank you @Zloth , it means a lot to the moderation team reading/hearing something like this from community contributors like yourself. Afterall, what's community without symbiosis? Honestly there were reports made but they are a blur in comparison to all the reports we'd handle in the past.

Thank you again and ofc, keep up with the vibrant discussions!

 

[Colif]

Stop wasting our time reporting nothing, get back out there and try harder, I am sure you can find something

Seeing an official Community Contributor thank the Moderators for their hard work kinda has that feel of someone giving themselves an award

Not that it isn't deserved, you guys are doing a great job.

 

[Lutfij]

You're part of community, too, @Pifanjr , so you either thanked yourself or you just shot the same foot take your pick!

Thank you btw, your discussions do help move threads along!

Ah, but I'm just a simple user, not an appointed Community Contributor.

But also, I agree I am doing a good job.

 

[Colif]

this is getting too much a group back slapping session for my liking

Colif edges away...

 

[Lutfij]

Come back here, for your slap on the back!

You figure we'd have a chance at one if we didn't circle-award?

Ok gang, one big group hug and let's move along…

PS someone's deodorant isn't working. Definitely time to move along!

 

[Zloth]

Keep on the 'empty posts' and they may actually start deciding that its easier to participate than figure out how to dodge!

 

[SWard]

You folks are awesome

 

[Colif]

There are some unsung heroes who didn't post in this thread but yeah. its easier to see actual posts on forums right now, trying to keep it that way

By the Hood's shaggy balls, I was about to report a post just now when I got hit with the "the post doesn't exist" error. F5 and lo and behold, the post was gone.

DAMN YOU MODS FOR ACTING TOO FAST

 

[Colif]

goes back to sleep

 

[Brian Boru]

FAST

Yesterday at 8:02 AM

goes back to sleep

Yesterday at 8:03 AM

Fast? Can't beat our Colif bot.

 

[Colif]

So it was 8.03am your time when I sent it, but I assume that was Friday Morning? you can't be ahead of me... only a few islands are and none of those are 7 hours ahead. It was 1.03 am on Saturday I sent that message, I am a little ahead of you

Guess I was fast as this forum is on watched status so I see posts here right away.

 

[OsaX Nymloth]

@Colif I am totally expecting you to start writing to us from the future any day now.

Like I will get a new private message from you "do not post that thread you just wanted to post".

 

[Colif]

Do not post the thread you make in 5 hours time...

I wish i was in the future like that, knowing lottery results before they are drawn would be handy.

I don't know who you are. I don't know what you want. If you are looking to advertise Fortnite videos, I can tell you I don't watch youtube. But what I do have are a very particular set of mods; mods we have acquired over a very long year. Mods that make posting a nightmare for spammers like you. If you delete your spam now, that'll be the end of it. They will not look for you, they will not pursue you. But if you don't, they will look for you, they will find you, and they will ban you....

Liam Neeson's feeling a cold sweat trickle down his spine, he's been matched and then some more!

 

[Brian Boru]

I assume that was Friday Morning?

Indeed it was.

I am a little ahead

I know another guy with a small head, he does ok so don't fret about it.

they will look for you, they will find you, and they will ban you

That's the gentle warning for first offence.
Second offence, on the other hand…

Let's just say the squad are continually refining their loadout—best you can hope for is a triple sync shot, one of 'em being armor-piercing, one tracer, and the kicker is a Bliss bullet.

Liam Neeson … he's been matched

An Irish guy matched? Dream on, vile defender of mediocrity.
