Title: disappearing posts
Post by: wasta on August 25, 2012, 07:42 am
Yesterday, I placed a few posts that have been gone now.
I could give good and negative karma and had about 106 posts behind my name.
Am I being censured and sounds this familiar?
I have not been notified in any way.
Strange!

After been set back to less then 100 post, do I have now again over 100 post and still can not give karma.
Yesterday I could!
EDIT, now i do see the negative and good again.

This also happened to me yesterday. ??? I was at around 305 posts only to log in today and be sitting at about 275.  ???  I suspect the posts I made warning people about scammers which have now been deleted could be the reason.

To nuke the spam postings, the replies have to be nuked as well, sorry.

DPR has graciously allowed me the ability to nuke these spam posts, so hopefully you'll be seeing a lot less of them.

+1 Karma for the effort that's going to take mate...

@Guru

Why is the fother mucker not just simply banned?

It takes a lot more time to set up a new account, then just the paste he does, every time one post is deleted.

No worries Guru. Glad that's cleared up. I appreciate your effort +1.  :) I only started to warn other on each new spam post after I noticed some poor newbie had actually made a purchase and was complaining the process took longer than the 5 mins claimed in the post.  ???

I don't have the ability to ban accounts, just nuke spam.  Lim has banned at least 20 accounts so far, and I've seen another 3-4 just today.  It's like whack-a-mole as fast as they are nuked, another one comes up. Lim thinks they're bots, and I'm inclined to agree.

Looks like it's time to put a captcha on the account registration and on guest post.

   You DID mean 'scammers' and not 'spammers' yeah?   Coz I've had a few posts deleted where I've named a scammer (not without warning and THEN with proof)

  What's up with this?   ??? :-\
