Handling spam posts
-
Dear all,
if you find a post with content, that you think is spam, please flag the post for moderation and vote down that post using the up/down arrows at the upper right side of the post.
That way people spamming our forum will get negative reputation and then flagged as spammer.

I now enhanced the rule set so a spammer has the chance to get rid of the spammers flag.
If a user with a negative reputation get’s a reputation of +2 or more, he/she will be removed from the spammers group and become a regular user again.
So please use the voting system to identify spammers and also help users being flagged as spammer by accident to get back their regular members status

I am using this every time I see spam. Looks like its working very well!

It is :D
But for new users I simply delete their account, if they made just one post and that was classified as spam ;)
So there is still a manual process behind
