I see that many of our members, newbie to addict willfully violate forum 's rule #14:

If you see a post that violates any of these rules, please report it to our moderators using the "Report an offensive post" link. Do not play the role of a moderator if you are not one. There is absolutely no need to nitpick on the posts of new users. Let the moderators do their work.

We have a spam threads here, and mods will try to hid them asap, but many times we see our members replying with stypid pics or messages and it's against the rules and im not going to allow it, and i think there's also other mods who dont like that spammer feeding..


I'll give temp bans for every users, no matter what's the title who willfully violate forum rule #14 on spam threads


..it's ok for one member to post "reported" (then other members can see that there's no need to re-report it, less reports for us ;-) but if i see anything other messages which arent needed, i'll give a 2 days off..

Thanks Janne, this happens a lot, rather than hitting report people reply...Good to see a clamp down.

i wish it was possible to launch a weapon at SPAMMERS through my internet connection. The removal of ALL spammers & other viagra/cialis-peddling filth from the Internet would make it a great place once again.

I would rather some1 @AD report bad posts to the mods. As a former mod at another site, it feels good to ban spammers :) One of the few benefits of the job.

Huh, never thought of that. Kinda is feeding them huh? Its kinda like that one idiot that does stupid stuff just so people look at them.

Doesn't expecting the unexpected make the unexpected expected and therefore mean your expecting the expected which was the unexpected until you expected it?

:'(

Shouldn't this be titled feeding the wolves? ;)

This saddens me, I do use the report button (sometimes too happily as the mods well know) but I had fun giving the spammer crap for their actions.

This thread came as a personally unwelcome surprise as I liked doing it and it didn't seem to bug the majority of the mods, heck a few (whom shall remain nameless) would change spam threads to let us wolves know we could "feed".

Most of the time I don't think the spammers even read what was posted but some did and even replied to the comments before they got the smack down.

It was fun while it lasted though *sob* *sniffle*

pop, if the title has been edited to include wolves & moved to safety valve than we mods have done our duty. just remember, no swearing or certain name calling as we do have kids on site.

http://forums.afterdawn.com/thread_view.cfm/2/402108#3006064

i don't know if it takes you directly to it, but if not go to the second page, that was just awesome, i'd like to have great ideas like that, and would definitely wouldn't like to be banned like that haha!

That one's good, is best when they stick up something personal such as there ip, email, address etc. I'm sure plenty of people would love to forward these details onto a few companies.
