doesn't really matter how many
its the posts
As you see. If it the foum I mod,most members would never see them as I one touch them in the early hours

I talk about number of spammers, you talk about number of posts, the forum team still does nothing.

This is not the forum that you are a mod on so there is no comparison, this is MSE and they do not have the same set-up so we do see all these posts and it is left to us to hit the spam button enough times to remove them and as you can see from others posting, peeps are getting fed up opening every thread to click the button.

Kudos to someone or something. Just clicked the :spam: button on half a dozen "Fake Authentic Passport" posts. They all disappeared within 4 minutes. Either the reporting system has improved or there was "someone in authority" watching. :T

Or there are many people clicking the spam button

I'd like to think so but I was keeping an eye on the page-view counts and they weren't all that high. Mustn't grumble, though.
