I am quite confused in reporting prashadraj205000. Most of his posts are from a website named coindelite, I presume that he may be a paid promotional poster for the website,though he mentions only in some of his posts. Also some of his posts are plagiarized from medium and other news related sites. So should he be banned or given a chance by deleting his plagiarism posts?

A post of his, which are being plagiarized from news related sites. Most of his posts have been given proper reference to coindelite site rather a few.

It was recently revealed that hackers have found yet another way to mine cryptocurrencies. Reportedly, they are employing fake Adobe Flash updates to install cryptocurrency mining malware on networks and user’s computers. This results in severe losses, a significant drop in system performance and increased electricity bills for the affected users.

While Adobe Flash has long been a popular method for pushing malware onto computers. It used to be easy to identify. Hackers have since come up with innovations that allow them to silently download cryptocurrency miners on Windows computers.

Are mods checking for when spam in a thread would become to much to lock it or delete it? Or would it help to also crowdsource that kind of reporting?
Most of the threads generating insane amount of spam are being deleted or locked up if we report them. These kinds of mega spam threads are common in Alt Discussion. Mods would be quite busy in the Alt Discussion, they might have more work apart from locking and deleting a thread as the board is a hotbed for Referral Code Spams, Scams and Phishing Sites.

Hence, it would be better if we report the mega spam thread rather than waiting for MOD to lock them.

The OPs of the thread and the projects being promoted? Why should the rest of the thread remain up if it is generating so many pages of spam in a day.
You can better check that up by joining the SpamBusters Club. They discuss these sorts of issues quite often.
