It's like they all disinigrated or something. I know I should't post about spam but it's getting kind of crazy in New Mombasa. Is Obbiquiet here? She always has good advice during spam attacks.


Never mind. They're back.

Keep a cool head. Alert the Bungie staff and the Moderators. Find a topic where you will be safe with a group of fellow non-spamming members. Did I cover most of it?

I'm here, and my advice is to follow Shishka's advice:

Ignore it.

Yes, that includes complaint threads. Pretend it doesn't exist, and stick to PMs.

If there's a lot of trouble, then PM me or AIM me, and I'll try to get it sorted out quickly.

Nope. There IS no topic safe from spammers.

I tried to get the mods attention but they aren't here. I don't know where they went. We need more mods.

Ok, how about finding a topic that is unlikely to get spammed? I heard about the spamming spree that went down last Sunday. I was told it was really bad.

Resort to private messages or a private forum. I.E. A chapter's peronal forum.

A brain-damaged monkey could almost do better than many of us here; the rules keep getting broken...

The only reason we don't have a whole lot of moderators is that few people can be trusted with the job. Posted by Quiet:

Much of the spam we see here is personal stuff concerning only two people that for some reason is posted on the public forum. It's as if some people don't understand the concept of personal messaging...

That'd be asking a lot to keep conversations to each other. I don't think Bungie anticipated this many people at once. And the old forums were well behaved and everyone got along, none of this flame stuff. So they didn't put a bunch of mods on station right away.
