Idk how to don't make it sound like " I " want this, but seeing how mark was banned, I thought why wouldn't be pox banned as well, I mean putting together all the things he has said after he was given multiple warnings...

Tho Jeff, didn't you talk with him today?, was he receptive? or the dude is a lost cause? lol.

I'd also keep an eye on alien since I think he is in a "last warning" status if I recall correctly.

The idea of all the posts I've made is to attempt to wipe the slate clean for everyone so they at least have a fair chance not to get banned. I tend to hope that our members will realize their mistake and turn a new leaf, but I know not everyone will. Mark XD was banned because even AFTER all of that (plus Stone and I were pretty appalled by that animation he made) he STILL continued to stir up trouble, so we gave him a two week ban.

Pox hasn't done anything yet but Stone and I are also watching him closely. Neither of us think he'll change, especially because I did speak to him and the entire time he was trying to spin it so he looked like he was the victim by claiming you were "attacking" him. Apex also saw through this to his credit and both of us were questioning him, he kept showing out of context screenshots of things you said to him that look bad on their own, but when put in context as replies to him already being an asshole it didn't really work out in his favor. Thankfully you've been documenting his bullshit here so I literally had no problems seeing through that crap. He also sent me the infraction sharp gave for when him, externus and alien were posting fake "nice" things on your clan page and tried to claim he was just posting his thoughts. In that case there's literally nothing I could say since both of us know exactly what he was doing and if we was going to be disingenuous about it I wasn't interested in listening.

Every time I see him do anything lately he's just being a shit head to someone else. I'm not sure what's crawled up his ass but rest assured it's not going to be tolerated. He has 0 chances left, and because he's had so many permas and because I've spoken to him to get a feel for his brand of bullshit his next slip up is a perma ban.

Ok then, I'l also glad I was able to save all those quote, I can't believe he was still trying to get me out of context tho, that's like... really low. Thanks for clear that up btw (you too stone ♥~).

So many bots coming in out of nowhere. Luckily, they're being handled before they get to starting any trouble. But I can't wait for that anti-spam tool. It'll make life so convenient. As would a promotion~ XD

I can't help the feeling that this is the same guy that had the seven accounts that I banned earlier. It's the same pattern. A bump and their name or just a word in their signature. Best be keeping an eye on him and possibly any other person with the same behavior.

Ok, yeah, these bots are starting to get out of hand. >.> I just dealt with one that hid it's activities in VMs to inactive members and other bots. Including banned ones! I mean, it's cool my stats got boosted so much, but this is just ridiculous.

Alright guys, Spam-O-Matic is back but this time I made some important changes:

- SOM cannot be used against Mods, Core Team Mods, or Admins
- SOM no longer permanently removes content, it soft-deletes everything so they can be recovered
- SOM no longer removes users, it just bans them

To use SOM, select a post like you normally would and under Moderation Tools choose Spam-O-Matic. You should only have to confirm, I've set it to automatically choose the above options. This way no one is gonna get wiped out by mistake, but you should still make sure you only have spambot posts selected! Any problems or questions let me know.

Thanks Jeff! It'll be a big help! ^^

No problem! I also just added a quick "move to recycle bin" option to the moderation tools as well so it's one click to bin a thread.

Since you're adding things, could you add SoM to our tools for Visitor Messages? A lot of the bots I've been dealing with hide their presences through VM'ing themselves and other inactive accounts.

There's no option to add SOM to visitor messages but it is on a user's profile now, so you can just click their name and wipe everything from there. It should be under "quick links".

EDIT: Looks like I was mistaken, that's for admins in the edit user admin panel. I'll look into adding SOM to other moderation tools dropdowns soon.

Oh wow, it's back! And yeah, thanks a bunch Jeff! This'll really help~

Wait question, does anyone else have that notification where it says "1 posts, awaiting for moderation"? I have no idea what it wants from me

No, I'm getting that too.

Same here. It's weird.
