The next BS thread of META

[libert19]

Yo, I just read this comment and I felt like making post about it, because it's that good.

Comment in question:

Conor McGregor coming back from his retirement, I don’t know what to call it probably because of money, because I absolutely don’t know what he is going to be doing in the ring, Well it’s a good opportunity for the promoter making some huge amounts of money.

Anyways I still don’t know where this fight would be taking place, I could have bought some ticket and setting my flight to be there live watching the game, because it’s going to be an interesting matchup, everyone is definitely going to be having fun in the game.

Anyways let’s see what the both fighters are going to be coming up with and what they’re going to be giving us in this fun game coming.

If you have some idea about UFC, you can instantly tell it's a spam but others may not be able to tell so. So, let me give you context — commentor has made comment in anticipation of match which is ALREADY OVER which makes it spam.

Also, the second line in comment deserves a special attention, so please allow me to do so,

Anyways I still don’t know where this fight would be taking place, I could have bought some ticket and setting my flight to be there live watching the game, because it’s going to be an interesting matchup, everyone is definitely going to be having fun in the game.

Taking it literally. Yes sir, it's a rocket science to know where the match is taking place.

Now, my observations,

— Activity/Merit ratio of user in question ain't that bad.

— I am pretty sure when BMs go through user's posts, and glance through their profile, they would be counting such posts as alright as I don't think they understand such posts are spam unless you know the context. But then again, I understand their plight that if they were to check each individual comment from each user, it would be a straining task. So, what's the solution? May be if campaigners were to have some integrity it would be nice, wouldn't it?

PS: I understand that this post could have perfectly suited in thread — shitposts that are so bad so funny; but I decided to create a thread about it regardless. I have also reported the post as, 'shitpost' — let's see if mods delete it.


Edit: Post in question has been deleted — thx mod, very cool. Pls continue with your exceptional work.

Wow, the guy just dropped it without knowing anything about the topic. I have followed the match before, and after the match we were moving on to a discussion about what happened and Connor's future, and the guy didn't even know what was going on.
We were on the 10th page of the discussion, while he was on the first page.

This is a typical case where most moderators can do little or nothing unless others inform them. Moderators don't need to understand every topic being discussed (especially in the area of ​​gambling).

For the average reader, this post doesn't add anything to the debate, but it doesn't constitute spam on its own. However, for those who are familiar with the subject or following the debate, this post is clear because it's highly outdated.

Unfortunately, there are many of these posts in the gambling board. This must be one of the most difficult places to clean of spam.



Lately there has been a lot of talk about combating spam on the forum. Perhaps each of us should consider how we can help in this fight. Maybe reporting more of these spam posts would be a good way to combat spam on the forum.

Yeah, actually this one:

Looks like LoyceV was correct on this:

It's hard to predict what it's going to be, but I think libert19 is most likely to post the next BS topic. He's been busy with pointless topics.

[libert19]

^ Yes sir. It's LoyceV, how can (s)he be wrong!?

[BIT-BENDER]

To cap everything up the post is also contradictory because it started with talking down on McGregor, going on about how he is coming into the match for money and still questioning what McGregor was going to be doing in such match which is to say McGregor doesn't have anything to contribute again to combat sport but still made contradiction to this statement by going on to say how exciting the match will be and how he wishes to watch it and the joy it will bring to the audience.

Shouldn't this thread be locked after what the mod did to the post in question?
