Hello!

I just wanted to ask you guys to try to resist posting in threads you know will be moved to the bin or deleted. An example of this are the threads being made with titles like, "HOT ASIAN WHORE IN ACTION" (lol ... the recent barrage of spam today was about asian women, apparently). The reason I don't want you to reply to those posts is because usually the people who post these post multiple threads with the same SN. After I'm done moving one of these posts to the recycle bin (so that Xianti can see the post and ban the SN accordingly), I just go ahead and delete the other threads because it's faster than moving them to the bin.

The problem is when someone replies to these posts, they create another post in the thread and then I can't just delete that one spam post. If I just try to delete the spam post, the reply stays along with the spam title, and that's really annoying.

I realized this today when I deleted a spam post in the SH forum that ISF had replied to. I went back and realized it looked like ISF had written a content-less post with a title describing hot asian anal sex or something. FALSE ADVERTISEMENT

I think there will be a couple more of these in random forums, so PM me if you spot one and I'll delete it.

Thanks!

Wow i thought this was going to be about my taskbar thing.

I don't get this, i replied in the post saying lol delete. Some gimmick account with spam pron made that post. i replied because it was at the top and just said delete. I didn't write it, so just clarifying that. Idk if im misunderstanding your post, you do realize the person who posted that thread had four posts, assuming all of them posted a link to asian anal pron.

isf posted, off to the recycle bin!!

OP
don't get upset at the competition

[Lukie]

solution: xianti gives all the mods temp-banning power and then courtie can stop being such a nit

[donkbee]

This is all Xianti's fault!

ISF, I know you didn't make the thread. The point of my post is to ask people not to make replies like that because when I delete the original post, it makes it LOOK like you made the thread.

I just need people to help me be a lazier mod

If it's duplicate spamming, Bin one to show what you did (and keep an example of the spammer's post), then go ahead and delete the other duplicate topics -- replies and all.

Replies to spam are useless and I'm sure the funny reply-makers won't mind.

[GatorJH]

Wait, you forgot something. You forgot to tell us about the hot asian whores. Were they hot? Were they really whores? Inquiring minds want to know.

You should have let the missus request this...

For some reason I like posting witty responses, knowing full well that like 2 people will see it before it's deleted. WTF?

[ensign_lee]

Couldn't yo ujust move the whole thread to the bin? Pffft. Lazy moderators...

This made me laugh pretty hard.

I do this already and that's the reason I made this thread ...

I don't really care whether the person who replies cares or not. I do care if it's unnecessarily more work for me though. How do you delete entire threads without deleting all the posts separately? I'm just saying that when I go to delete the original post, the entire thread doesn't get deleted because of the replies and it's annoying.

soooo tedious after the third, fourth, fifth thread ... and often there are more than 5. You have click the damn move button, then scroll down to decide where it should be moved (which reminds me, why aren't the forums in that list in any sort of order that makes sense? alphabetical would be nice), then click move, then go back and write a msg that says you moved it there. Blah blah blah, would rather just delete it (all you gotta do is click the little x and then press 'yes').

This thread sucks.

LOCK!!! woooo

I said delete the entire spam topic (thread) -- replies and all.

The "X" to the right of the post is for deleting the post.
The "X" at the bottom-left of the topic (thread) is for deleting the entire topic.

[Xianti]

Don't bother with splitting and trying to preserve the replies to spam topics. You're making more work for yourself.

[donkbee]

I wasn't trying to preserve the replies! The replies are stupid! I just didn't know you could delete the entire thread, I've never really had to do it before.

gahh

[chardrian]

haha - noob.

I love being able to post in locked threads!!

[Halv]

Wait, this means that there's still a chance to get the asian whores?
