New Moderators Join the Fight Against Spam

[SHaines]

Hey folks,

Now that the forum upgrade and migration have been completed and things are running smoothly, we're growing the ranks of our Golf Monthly volunteer moderators. @BrianM @Billysboots , and @Hobbit have been members of the community going back a decade, or more, and have agreed to help out in the perpetual fight against spam.

Please join me in welcoming them to the ranks of our Moderators! My personal thanks to all of you for being members of this community. The forum wouldn't be much fun without you.

Enjoy the rest of your week!

I must have missed the email, only been a member for 14 years.
Mind you, if I was a mod I'd ban people left right and centre

So moderators just to look at spam

Why do you think the moderators are there just to look at spam?

Because that’s what it says in the post Bob

Can't be bothered

Most of what we do is to keep the forum tidy and free of outside rubbish.

In percentage terms only a very small amount of time is spent dealing with Forum Miscreants

What a great 'tag' to stick under a few forum names We could run a poll !

It would be very depressing if, during my first day as a mod, a thread about mods descended into chaos!

Ok assuming this idea doesn't get past the Board... can we at least call @Hobbit a Mordorater

A self-moderated Bob just wouldn't be the same.

That's more like it!

Being an hour ahead of most of the forum members, and an old coffin dodger, I’m usually awake before 5am U.K. time. Yesterday I saw 3 Spam posts, and I dare say I didn’t see all of them. I’ve reported a number of them since we came out here and I, usually, see them quite early.

But don’t worry guys, I kept the one from yesterday that listed the best massage parlours to visit. Seriously, a lot of the stuff you don’t even get to see.

I miss the good all days when we could spend whole weekends trying to deal with big forum fracas.

I am sur there was one weekend where it kicked off on a Friday night and we were still clearing it up and handing out bans on Sunday evening. When it kicked off then it proper kicked off.
