You know, whenever i first got here(which wasnt too long ago), the septagon was pretty clean...there was the occasional retard...spammer...you know...but know its like its starting to be over run. The septagon is one tough fort but its not going to hold forever like this. I beleive new members...heck...maybe all members be made to read the rules and code of conduct. I beleive that it should be mandatory for everyone to have a logged visit to the rules and CoC page at least once. I know this wouldnt help a great deal, but it would some. Maybe there are other suggestions? We need to get things where trouble is stopped before it ever happens. The mods are there to chop bad stuff up, but they have a pretty heavy workload...is there anything that could be done?

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

This place is safe for now. There arnt many retarted threads made in here.

Personally i have read the rules.

Devil is Double is Deuce and Joker always trumps Deuce.

The system seems to be working very well now. I haven't seen a real bad spam attack for at least 3 months.

I'll be on my own side.

the Septagon is fine. the mods keep it clean. they do focus on this one more than the others, you know

More people should know about reporting threads etcetc... I read licences and code of conducts and all that which is really boring but you learn stuff :) Like no abusing other people and no spamming which some people don't seem to understand.

Yeah. I have seen a few spammers recently (they have all, of course, been reported), but this forum is pretty good.

I mean, spam is a real issue, but sometimes, it's not seen as much as people think.
The only real suggestion i've seen is to have a spam thread for people to get it out of their system.

Naming no names of spammers though.... *cough!* mmbtaco *Cough*

(Don't worry, he's reported)

Well, I was just saying, I havnt seen all that much spam, but still...
Ah well what Gods Prophet said is probably a good thing that could be done. Make a big spam thread where it would be leagl...maybe in the flood...so everyone could get it out...maybe we should ask someone higher up on the ladder about it???

Yeah but chances are,if they created a thread like that I think we'd see them popping up all over the place started by new members who've only been here 3 days.

yes, but that would happen even without the thread ;)

maybe they should assign a certain number of mods to each forum. not including the News and Voting Booth and those forums. im sure theres been times when all the mods are in the Septagon and then theres some retard spamming over in Zanzibar. they would probably need more mods though

Some retard? Have you been to Zanzibar lately? Most of those posts are useless, if not off-topic. If I were a mod, I would prefer here than there. Thats probably why I wouldn't be picked as a mod, that and... and... its just to terrible to say.
