There, if you hover the mouse on the forum titles on the left hand side, a cog/wheel will appear..click on it, and select unfollow.
When you go back to recent discussions https://community.myfitnesspal.com/en/discussions (all new posts from all subforums) no posts from the subforums that you have marked unfollow will appear..1 -

@psulemon @kgeyser @JustSomeEm @35dollars @tiptoethruthetulips Thanks!
If I could get a Mod reminder if I put this type of spam in the right spot or if it should have just been reported in the thread it was in? I've forgotten... appreciate it!0 -

Thanks for reporting and checking @Hearts_2015
As a first action, you should click the Flag > Spam on these ones, and then if it doesn't go away really quickly, posting here will help bump it along. Thanks again!1 -

Great, Thanks for the reminder @Alex
Here's a very tiny cookie for you 
, you won't even have to count. :laugh: Why you could probably eat a dozen and not have to count them at all. It'll be like you never really had a cookie at all!

Is there a guideline on what is to be seen as spam? I mean, where do we draw the line. I have people seen to promote their websites/businesses. I am torn when it is both on topic (so no spam?) and undisclosed that they are connected to the stuff they are promoting (so spam?)0

@Alex @psulemon @kgeyser @JustSomeEm @35dollars @tiptoethruthetulips
Lots of spam from http://www.myfitnesspal.com/dispatch/mobile/user/lguruji78/profile/lguruji78
As example - (way to many to tag and copy into this msg)

The 'Introduce Yourself' section is being completely inundated. There were almost two solid pages worth when I started flagging them.

@Alex, spams pretty bad and there hasn't been a mod on for around 3.5 hours, based on how long it goes back. From a quick look at the mod list and a search of the forums, only 3 of your mods have been active in the last week - 1 of them hasn't posted in months. I also don't think you have any mods who aren't US based (and therefore likely asleep). Maybe a recruitment or 2 might be necessary?2

On it ... killing them as quick as they appear, and working on the backlog...1

They've begun hitting the 'Getting Started' section now too.0

Nevermind. Someone finally got them. That really shouldn't have gone on for five+ hours...0 -
I think I've caught up on them all now - killing the new ones as soon as I see them1

Hence my noting that appears that the forum is really under-modded of late, and that the mods seem to be on the same timezone...2 -

Maybe I should have just said, “Seconded.” 2 -
And they are already back. It feels like they are putting one new post up instantly for every one I managed to put the fifth flag on... so tedious.1

Today is just cursed. It is currently starting again. There needs to be a better pre-post filtering, or quicker "blocking accounts from starting too many threads in a row" or whatever. A better prevention system.1

Blocking accounts wouldn't have worked that well today - there were a lot of accounts just posting 1 message0
