From what I remember, only the last few pages of DECENT thread were basically 100% spam done by one of those bumping services. That is, at the moment I identified the same group of accounts working across
six different threadsThe rest was indeed the mix of shitposts, rants and the occasional constructive posts.
Oh, right.
You basically described 99% of the altcoin board threads, it's a total clusterfuck there. That whole section needs either big revamp or just to be locked.
Clusterfuck? Looooooooooool! That's a great word, describing perfectly the situation.
No, I referred to @Welsh suggestion about reporting only the first post and then mods clearing the rest of the thread. And I tried that in the past, I reported just the original post on the thread saying that it mainly consists of bumping spam as I hoped that might be enough for mods to take a look and just clear the thread without me reporting each post separately. Nothing happened of course, report remained unhandled.
Oh, I see now... Yes, this is true.
But what I was saying in my previous post was if it would be a good move to start a topic in Meta and ask this question bluntly:
what are the oldest posts that can be reported and not be automatically left unhandled or marked as bad? Is there a timeframe? Like -- all posts made until June 30th 2017 are accepted to be moderated. Or -- all posts until Dec 31st, 2017 are accepted to be moderated. Do not report older posts as they will be ignored or marked as bad.Thus, having this information, all reporters would know how far they can go in the past. And there would be an official statement for that. As it is now, some mods would moderate reports for old posts and some won't -- remember the discussion from posts #273 and #274 of this thread.
