Spam Prevention Measure - Omniscient - Oct 22, 2022
Posts reported by an upgraded (Ub3r) member against a regular non-upgraded member with under 25 posts with the following warnings ....
Posting etiquette
Infected
Adult Content
Advertising Competing Site
Out of Marketplace
Scam Spam (this is usually spam that attempts to take a member off-site for "help" with their telegram or discord contact info)
That member will get Post Suspension for 24 hours and the reported post Unapproved (removed from visibility). When I'm online I will review the posts Unapproved and the members who are post suspended.
Essentially this turns every single Ub3r into a spam fighter.
Abuse of this will result in action against your account. Do not abuse this.
I will expand this plugin in the coming days with some better features against abuse such as requiring multiple reported posts and multiple Ub3r reporting it. The plugins current form is very powerful.
Enjoy.
fyi, if any of this doesn't make sense it's because I am tired and it's late and I been working all day.

This will help keep things spam free.
Good work.

Three days in a row if you've paid attention. I used to work a lot more than this. I gotta rebuild my stamina I guess.

I'm basically just checking your profile to see if you made more threads at this point.
Take a much needed break my friend, you're doing a fantastic job.

I can't wait to see this be used, appropriately of course. Should definitely help with not only spam but suspected multi's.
Great work Omniscient truly making leaps and strides in changes.

I should add a reason like "scammer spam" for all that Telegram scam spam HF gets. But I suppose just Posting Etiquette can do.

To piggy back off my last post, maybe a "Suspected Multi" option, 3 reports, account goes into "review"?

I report every one of those, that shit pisses me off.
Spams in any kind of thread with a job and money that they can do it and add their Telegram.
I'd recommend a Telegram Spam type report option. I knew you couldn't advertise Discord without confirming it because it was a report option, but for a while I didn't know Telegram was as well.
Edit: Also does this mean multiple people can report the same post to get 3 votes, or does it have to be 3 separate posts.

This change = great. Fucking with me and making me nervous in chat = no bueno.
Gives people more reason to upgrade to an ub3r as well. If what you say is true November and December should be fun.

Current set to just one reporter. And HF system disallows a post to be reported more than once.

That’s dope! Will help stop trolls when you’re offline.
Sad I can’t abuse this against N tho.
RE: Spam Prevention Measure - Blazin - Oct 23, 2022
This is good. I’ll be reporting bullshit if I see it. Seems this happens a lot at night and random hours.

Can confirm, what you put in place works like a charm.
