Dave Mellor NJ Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 Isn't there some way to filter out these annoying UKitchens loading the site with spam? What happened to the red flags? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 The triangle at the lower left of each post is there for reporting spam which is what I just did. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlLaFong Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I've reported them 5 or 6 times. Isn't there a way to block the IP address, assuming this is the same person spamming under different names? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earl B. Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 I've reported 2 or 3 of them too.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest shadetree77 Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 The problem is that there is not a moderator online this time of night(or morning if you're on the other side of the globe)that can read all of your reports and delete the offending posts. It doesn't get taken care of until 8 or 9 in the morning. A lot of these spam posts contain malware too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Texas Old Car Guy Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 (edited) I know that I've clicked the little triangle (report post) symbol in the lower left hand corner for at least 10-12 of the UK kitchen wizards posts over the past week. Just wish there was some way to create a "reverse virus" so we could sting them from this end. :mad:By the way Dave, very creative title - you should be a copy writer.

R W Burgess Posted May 23, 2013 Share Posted May 23, 2013 We have new programming in the works to prevent these "carpenters" from posting here. I have considered calling them collect and see if they with ship "pre-paid"???At any rate, when I get up first thing every morning, I have about 10 e-mails sent to my address from the notices that you guys send out. Thanks, saves me the trouble to have to look for them. They are using mulitible addresses, and one this morning changed his log-in and answered himself. MR Earl, Matt, and I handle handle the majority each morning.We're trying.Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like your idea - maybe all 63,000 AACA members could all call them collect and tell them we're all spammed out!Fred Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
