Cogito ergo sum.

They're a bit busy "taking care" of Foman's mom right now. Ask later.

IP bans are never given out for the fact that in colleges and public areas, the IP address is shared.

It's true, mods. Spammers are wreaking havoc there.

.... that didn't even make sense in this situation...

OP, you're better off PMing a ninja.

And yes, it did, he was insinuating they were busy "taking care" of Foman's mom, rather than Moderating.

Positive vibes.

I had to scroll a lot to get to the bottom of this page.

OT: PM a moderator, bro; there's really no need for a thread.

I spend too much time here.. too much time indeed.

I tweet?

You seem to be under the impression that IP bans are an end-all solution. The ease in which they can be bypassed is quite laughable and I'm sure any spammer like the JOHN CENA guy already knows he can get around it.

Spammers are going to be something you're going to have to put up with while you're on the internet. Just learn to ignore it. If everyone would pay no mind it'd be a better place.

Thats cool and all but do you realize how many alts the spammers have? If they were actually smart and planned their artacks the first page could be nothing but SHANE DAWSON and JOHN CENA! Even though this isnt the case, they're still causing quite a bit of havok...

EDIT: They are not.

I honestly cannot ever see this happening. The Flood just doesn't understand the "Don't Feed the Trolls" theology.

Which is why a much stricter troll policy is needed (unless this is all a big red flag by the staff, in which case we'd be playing right into their hands).

You know these things and yet still push for IP bans. Just no, they do nothing but lead to the possible inconvenience of others.

I hold to the belief that the solution is still with every user of the forums and their ability (or inability at the moment) to ignore trolls, spammers, and flamers.

In the mean time just keep reporting.

Those arent even the old ones, Play Nice rules were the real deal. When the threat of the impending deletion of the Flood was looming over our heads, the community smartened up a lot.

I personally believe that with the Flood slowly falling victim to the newest trends on the internet, those rules could be brought into the picture to allow a bit more stability.

For reference

The Mods should start major carpet banning, and post a sticky saying that people will be banned for a week if they reply to spam.

Hah, it should be two weeks. That's what I got back when I made that mistake :)

Case and point: don't worry about it. Girls start getting boobies pretty soon, and then you'll have plenty of other things to think about. Being an Inheritor is not a life goal.
-TGP-

Creating a thread about it on the Community forum doesn't make the problem go away. People in the Flood need to learn how to use the report button, not reply to spam and trolls, and to wait.

  • 09.16.2011 4:12 PM PDT

The Play Nice Rules seem like they would work with replying to spam instead. Two weeks for it ought'a do the trick. Scare 'em into obedience.

As much as I fought for The Flood a few months ago, this is getting out-of-hand. Not the Floodians, really, just the spammers; if they'd just stop replying to them, it'd be much better.
