Help us kill spam

Post by MMamdouh »

dear daewootech community

in our efforts to stop the flood of spammers on our forum, we are requesting your help to keep our forum clean.

you all know that we - moderators - are not on the frorum all the time and sometimes spam posts slip away without catching/deleting them so we would like you to "paint" the spam posts you find with a code word so that we can catch them for deletion.

the code word we ageed upon is KILLSPAM so whenever you come accross a spam post just add a reply to it contaning the code word and whenever a moderator logs onto the forum he will make a search for that code word to retrive the spamer's post(s) and delete them.

we really appreciate your help and cooperation in keeping up this forum, thank you very much guys.

I am also getting spam in my PM's. They are always from the same email address e_arias@hotmail.com, but it is always a different user name. The two I recived are from acklianer and ferracount. What can we do to make this stop?
