      Hey guys,
      Just to confirm, all posts that are flagged (including those that are flagged by 5+ people and hudden) go before the moderation team.

      Nothing is taken for granted as spam and if you end up being flagged because another member simply disagrees with you, it has zero consequence to yourself(it does waste a LOT of our time filtering through false spam reports though so, the act of flagging posts that you simply disagree with is frowned upon. Simply put, don't do it!).

      Keep flagging the spam.
      If everybody continues in doing as they are and flagging the actual spam topics, it keeps the forums a LOT cleaner for everybody!

      Have an awesome day!

      Night time for me (11.35pm), it usually starts about 2pm (my time) and then comes in phases.

      Based on the timing and the language use, most of these are coming from Russia, the Former Soviet Union and Asia.

      Many of the spammers like to post on the smaller boards--I don't see much on the main/general board.

      Got a few myself...they are getting a bit smarter with some of their discussion headers though as some are looking like they may be a legit post!

      Some of these are terrible bots that literally just string random words together for about 200-300 words and then give a link. What a horrible advertising method.

      Random words? Some are smarter than that. Some will copy what someone said in another post, so it looks legitimate, except it promotes some product or service. But it is against the community guidelines to post advertising whether you are a bot or not. But don't get me started on that or I'll end up violating one of the other community guidelines.
