Can we just sticky some the General Game Discussion thread ("Hearthstone babble and other random games") and the Omnibus Direct Distribution threads over in =22? At least so we don't have to go to page 3 or 4 to find them when the Smiley: spam hits? Please?

Something seriously needs to be done with this spam. Kao and co can't monitor the forums 24/7, and =22 is completely full. I don't even think I can report all of them.

Reporting all of them is pointless anyway, once you report one post of the account further reports in the same forum doesn't do anything. Mods are going to check the forum it was in for more threads anyway if they didn't already see that the spam account has a dozen or more posts.

Reporting every single one actually makes more work for the mods if I remember what Kao said. Cause he has to go through and not only clean up every thread, but go close every report made. I think he said that once the account was banned the reports didn't clear.

And they hit extra hard on Sunday, when the whole forums are pretty much empty.

The report system basically makes a list of links to reported threads. The more people report that thread, the more links it makes. Banning someone just takes the one link though. once we have a report that shows someone that needs banned, we generally then remove the entire post tree from their user account if they spam topics. If they just spam posts banning them pretty much makes them dissappear silently. Reporting every post they make is indeed just making more work for us to undo later.

Gotta save room for that Wii Friends list that hasn't been used since 2010.
