Void Singer Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 or some of those 24/7 mods we were promised? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Ahren Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 How about an automated attempt at a solution? A little captcha test before a new thread may be started? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little captcha test before a new thread may be started? That seems to work well in a lot of other places. I used simple math problems to stop spam on websites I designed a decade ago.

Randall Ahren Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 @rodvik, not really something a CEO should have to worry about, but the job is not getting done. Time to kill the spam, specifically this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesica Dragovar Posted September 29, 2011 Share Posted September 29, 2011 anyone tempted to go to the website these spammers are advertising, see if they have a forum, and start posting SL related threads? or as I just IMed one of them "hi I'm looking to watch some crappy ass shows like Jersy Shore or X Factor even though they suck ass, but I don't have a tv and I'm incredibly cheap, do you know where I can watch them online for free? I looked and looked in forums that have nothing to do with those shows and cant find any links, thanks for your help" I doubt I'll get a response but it was just so cathartic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PeterCanessa Oh Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 Why don't you spam the moderators with reports of the spam threads instead of us? (I'm serious here - I'm assuming you have some secret plan) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Ahren Posted September 30, 2011 Share Posted September 30, 2011 I just needed to upload an image so I could bit.ly it and tweet the link to rodvik. The only solution is a Linden solution. The spammers are using automated methods and the response is to reply upon human moderators and it isn't working. Automation wins in this environment.
