atourina said:i think a better feature would be .. 5 posts MAX per topic.. that way spammers can go away.. :mrgreen:
notice how almost every thread had 3+ pages.. and 1/2 of it has nothing to do with the topic...

Ashoor i have noticed that the time loged in does not go up anymore.... i am stuck at 77 days forever now
atourina said:no, i dont.. they have to live with the fact, that they can talk all they want, but eventually all that talk is gonna end up in the spam thread.. as usual -- not lately, cuz i havent been on much.. but ill do it all later
ASHOOR said:This is not about spam, but since it is brought up: basically, I don't care anymore, anytime I open a topic and see spam, I remove it. And I have also started PMing people who are becoming repeat spammers (of course, most will claim that they are not)
Moreover, I am now encouraging topic starters to tell, those who spam their topic, off. As well as to PM us to remove any spam from their topic. We have to work together to reduce spam, mods alone can't do it, it is too much work.
I will have more to say about this.
As for the feature at hand, honestly, I just started using it, so I have to learn more about its variables and dynamics before I can answer any questions. Just use it guys and you will see.

Crocodile Bani said:Cut the spam. Going through 3 pages of spam just to get to the topic is hard work. Some spam can be tolerated but when topics are spammed or flooded out, then no way should it be tolerated.
baklawa said:Actually, some left because of the spamming (also because of the decline in quality of topics, but that's another story), that's why Ashoor is trying to encourage all of us to stop it. If people like the spamming so much, there is already a thread for it.
Anitaaaaaaaaaa said:no i know some members leave because there is too much spam ,just like i know some leave because they always get told not to spam,the key here is to keep a balance
