![]() I have seen a lot of spam on bananas.org since I have joined the forum, just today " immigration to Canada". Annoying! As a newbie I have also received requests in PM for seeds and/ or pups of banana plants.
I would suggest a " report" button for the forum, so that our mods can me notified of spam and inappropriate posts and can act accordingly. |

![]() Well, the PMs asking for banana seeds aren't really spam.....Spam is advertising on the site.

![]() Ante is right: when some folks complained about an annual membership fee for new members and Jarred (Mediahound) changed it to provide free memberships to everyone, he warned of increased spam. I've dealt with most of the reported cases by banning them and deleting the posts (three this week). I ask that folks not bother to reply to spam posts but just report them so that me or another mod can deal with it. There are times I go on trips (4 day Scout outing last week) and won't be able to deal with the reported cases, but someone other mod might come by and deal with it. I'm around more than most and have dealt with about 90% of the reported spam messages in the past few months.
It takes enough time to deal with the spam when I do the deletion/banning so I don't bother to write a "thanks" message to whoever reported the spam, but please know that everyone appreciates it when you help out by reporting spam messages. |
