Spam posts

There must be an easier way to shift the spam posts which are appearing so frequently now. Think I've reported 3 in just the last 24 hours.

They're getting clever and incorporating in established threads.

This is a growing problem - how can we sort it?

Hello Money maker

Reporting spam to [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]abuse@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL] will help to get it removed.;) What isn't helpful is if members quote the spam, because it helps to promote the spam:p and may be left behind on the boards when the spammers posts are removed:


Where spam is reported to the Forum Team posts are deleted and the user's Posting Privileges may be removed. Please don't quote any post that you believe is spam, as this causes the team more work.

I think that the Board Guides and Forum Team do a good job of removing spam posts and threads and with your help, it's a great team effort.:T

Agreed - everyone does a great job and the majority dont quote them.

But it would be nice to be able to erase them quicker.

My one-man campaign continues! Now we've lost the Avon thread cos someone(s) pressed the spam button. Believe this happened to another large thread the other day.

I'm back! What a pain! I went out to collect the rest of my brochures tonight. 1 chucked out and 4 still to collect which is better than 10 to collect. 2 look like half promises with orders so I tool a chance and have left the brochures until Tuesday. I think I may have lost another 2 brochures though. How many brochures do most new reps put out for first 2 campaigns? Ive got 30 but now not sure it will be enough.
