Staredit Network -> Portal News -> Warning About Excessive Spam
Report, edit, etc...Posted by Yoshi da Sniper on 2004-07-22 at 23:52:55
I'm seeing a distribingly high number of people making topics to "Get a higher post count/minerals" through putting useless, unconstructive topics in all parts of the forums EXCEPT garbage.

Me and Minimoose will now be enforcing this more - as spam and unconstructive posts are not allowed here.

We all have our fun, but if we see it too much from you, one, more, or all may happen:
  • Warn level raise
  • Post count subtraction (like 25 posts or something)
  • Mineral Fine (like 100 minerals)
Please assist us in making a community with quality content. Thanks.

Now that you can't Put minerals in the bank..to collect interest...People(newbies who just post stuff saying "Wow thats great" or "Wow thats cool")will start doing a posting spree...to get alot of minerals its either attack people in Starcraft Armies or post alot...I see many, many problems with this

That is professional, we're both leaders of this site wink.gif

We've discussed this issue before, but now its becoming a big problem. I see garbage topics being made in the off topic forums.... on purpose.

Yeah, I saw that too. There is a lot of spam this last days, since you reset the minerals. And battlekruser posts everywhere and everything, after he posts ALL the topics have a battlekruser post. That's annoying -.-"

Yoshi, you need to fix my access to fines in the store. tongue.gif
As for Battlekruser, he was dealt with (thought I would have liked to fine him) and hopefully he's learned.
As for the rest of you, don't force me to have any fun with the warning page. There's some interesting options on that thing. happy.gif
And Carnox, in response to "Do I spam?", just go into your profile and hit "View all posts by this member"... should give you an idea.

spam is something you eat..or on the internet things you don't need to say but do anyway. I try to spam in a non spammy way ^_^ (like this post!)


...hmm...is that possible? (or is it just called a regulart post... huh.gif )

Stupid
Pointless
Annoying
Messages

IE, things that add nothing to the topic or are obviously made just to gain minerals, such as 1 line posts that say nothing.

My apologies. I enabled fines... after June 14th tongue.gif You have access now.


I disabled post increasing in the news forum for a few reasons. First, because I'm always making new topics and unfairly getting massive posts and money. Second, because people usually respond with "OMG I hate this" "Nice job!" and whatever. It didn't seem appropriate.

Ok enough of the DT_Battlecruiser bashing (he can read this you know). The admins know about the situation and have/are dealing with it. We don't need everyone posting examples.

DT_Battlecruiser isn't the biggest problem we have. Hes not as bad as you may think. Just because you post a lot, doesn't mean you're spamming. We gave him a little warning, and to other people too.
