Title: Helping out with spam Post by: eMansipater on May 10, 2011, 09:03:49 AM I've noticed a distinct increase in spam posts lately. Is there perhaps a flagging function that could be enabled on the forums, or any other way that I can help moderators detect and remove these posts? Or is the problem under control?
Title: Re: Helping out with spam Post by: Vasili Sviridov on May 10, 2011, 09:11:40 AM There's "Report to moderator" button. However the registration is probably not as bot-proof. Maybe people who want to use the site have to send BTC 0.01 to the forum, and then once registration is complete - they'd get it back :)
Then we know that person's interest in bitcoin is genuine :D Title: Re: Helping out with spam Post by: eMansipater on May 10, 2011, 09:13:27 AM D'oh! I don't know how I missed that--must be time to get some sleep. Paying .01 BTC to register seems like a really bad idea, since many people will want to ask questions here before starting to use BitCoin.
