pghhearts Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Maybe do a temporary IP ban on the entire range from the spammer’s country? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markp Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 The problem is the way they are signing up & also most of them are signing up from India and you just cant put a block on the whole range assigned to India. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
voiceoverwork Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 They’re working on it. Right now the Sheriffs can move the posts, but unfortunately we have to do it one at a time manually. It’s a lot of clicking and scrolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freelancemm Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 I think the easiest solution would be to put a limit on how many threads can be created in an hour, or even a minute. Most of these posts come all at once usually from a few specific accounts. If let’s say 20 threads were made in about two minutes, I would assume that there-in should alert some kind of system to at least “pend” the topics before they go live to have at least if at all a sheriff or someone to over-look them. At the rate bots create them though, it would be pretty obvious at least to me that they aren’t being created by actual people(and even if they were, it’s obviously not an original post.)
