The Purge

We've noticed the quality of content as been declining lately due to a small selection of (often new) users posting low-effort garbage, or attempting to circumvent our prerequisites for selling items. Roughly 20 accounts have been given the boot over the past few weeks, with a handful of those leaving us today.

Thanks to those who have reported posts. The queue is long, but we read and investigate everything.

Cheers

It is a shame.
Some folks have a true need for guidance,even if it is just a quick tap and go, and the few ruin it for the others. You have hard job and it is appreciated to keep the forum safe.
I just ask for some patience on some and see how it works out before it escalates out of control..
I know the policing is necessary in keeping a good thing going..
Thanks.

Are you also deleting some of the low quality posts? Lately seems to be too many of them, and also a lot of repeated threads.


Three of my more favorite watches.

Definitely report multiple threads and that sort of stuff too.

Re: deletion of low quality posts, it depends what it was and how many other members have jumped on the thread. For the accounts we've deleted the spam-cleaner function was used, which removes all of the authors content as well. If you have any specific examples that are really bad, either report it or PM me please. Cheers

Yes.
But maybe we'll be exterminated tomorrow.

While, ultimately, it's good for the site, as the unofficial welcoming committee, it sure takes some of the fun out of my job.
