Posting in spam threads - READ THIS!

With the unfortunate rise in spam threads i have noticed an interesting trend amongst AS users. Instead of reporting the spam thread, majority (not all) are just posting stupid comments and in that way, both rising their post-count and bumping the spam threads.

So when the next spam thread appears, use the report function and staff will take care of it as soon as possible.

DO NOT POST IN IT!

If you do this you will be suspended for 2 days for helping keep the spm thread on top of the page. If you continue doing this, a permanent ban might be the option.

Help us keep AS clean and use the report button.

Thank you.

I have a feeling my last post was instrumental in this warning. In my defence, i reported it to! :P

You should really try this great cellphone! I mean, nothing else works. Here's a great link with my username as a referral!!! :D

No seriously, if you plug stuff in General Discussion, it's spam. If it's a great deal, it's spam. If users report it as spam, it is spam. If it's pasted from a website, it's spam.

That cover it all?

I am very serious about this so keep the jokes to yourself next time, ok?

And CDi2, actually it was the fact that nobody except for you reported it.

I think perhaps the report button should be more clear/in a better position. I was about to post "Well if you want us to report stuff, a report button usually helps"

Didn't see it at all on my first look, had to look harder to find it. I say you shift it along next to the Quote and Reply buttons because they ae more commonly used, and people will see it.

Oh, by the way, did you hear the one about Unbe editing people's posts? It's a really good one ;)

Nope.... I think Unbe ate them before we came. Now SILENCE FOOLS!!! :P

Where is it? I've been looking for days.

It's on every single post, to the right of the title and the posted date. It's to the left of the Edit text on your own post. You're not the only one who's had trouble finding it ;).
