Re: [INFO]Gambling Board Spams; Concerns, Solutions & Suggestions
Thank you for bringing discussion on this topic to a wider audience.
I cannot speak for others but I am glad I created self-moderated threads for sports discussions. There is no right or wrong way to move forward, it is all about opinions. If someone creates a thread and does not self-moderate then that is their decision and they can weigh up the pros and cons. The same applies for those that wish to post and read posts in those threads.
For me, I do not regret deciding to take action against spammers and low quality posts hence the statistics you posted where I deleted many posts. Having certain self-moderated threads for specific reasons makes sense just as having not having them in order threads/topics makes equal sense.
Your contributions in my Premier League thread was substantial and having those types of posts with detailed information and quality being drowned out by signature spammers is something that I prefer to avoid. I will continue with self-moderating several threads as the football, tennis and boxing gets going soon.
I have a fairly substantial ignore list and distrust list but I will go through the names you listed and add them if it is warranted therefore thank you for you for your efforts. As and when I have time I will continue to contribute in my own way to the community too

Casinos sig campaign has the most signature participants on the forum, and because of the high demand for gambling-related posts from participants, the gambling discussion board has become a haven for signature spammers - why is this? I bet the majority of those who applied to those campaigns had no knowledge of the game, but because the rules require a minimum of 10 posts on the gambling board, most of these users with no knowledge of the game just spam the hell out of the board with low quality and offtopic discussion to complete post counts. I spend the majority of my time reporting, especially in the last few days, but that alone is ineffective.
The concern.
The Solutions
* Is there a way the admin can turn thread to a self- moderated thread and hand it over to another OP who is ready to moderate the thread? I will volunteer I spend 90% of my time there.
* Is a self-moderated thread the answer? Yes, it reduces spam; consider JollyGood self-moderated threads as an example; zero 1xbit spammers, zero low posts since the beginning of last season, we talked and agreed to keep it clean for quality discussion only, and the result is fantastic!
⚽ English Premier League Season: 2021/2022 self-moderated 356 spam posts deleted
⚽ FOOTBALL: UEFA Champions League 2021/22 Season FINAL Real Madrid vs Liverpool self-moderated 15 spam posts deleted
Now what threads are the spammers fishing on?

My Suggestions!
Top gambling board spammers; excluded 1xbit spammers.
These users have zero knowledge of the game(Football) you can check their post history for details!
Gamgling board stats only!!!
N/B: Casino campaign managers should take note of these users. Added to ignore list.
Will a neutral tag with a bold message to these users be sufficient to send a signal to sig managers? Too harsh?
The concern.
Just want to notify you guys! I see some people are very familiar to do post in gambling discussion mega thread. I will suggest to not make post on these mega threads. I really don't like this. 
7. The posting quality will be thoroughly checked – posts in spam mega threads, campaign threads (including this one), necro posts and low-quality posts will not be counted.

My Suggestions!
- Lock the thread; create a self-moderated thread
- A new thread should be created at the beginning of every season. Old thread locked.
- Admin to convert the already existing thread to self-moderated.
