February 21, 20179 yr Had our first spammer, something about a Wenger shirt, post is still in the Pre-sales board, but hidden, possibly only moderators or admins can see it. Did not delete it yet, in case anyone wanted to see it, and the options associated with it. Rather confused at first, didn't know what to do with it, but found I could click on the IP (upper right corner) and get more options, eventually getting a dropdown where I could mark him as a spammer, and click a Warn User option. That basically goes to a long form to fill out, a lot more than I wanted, where I had to assign points to the user, and other things, but eventually again, I found a place where I could block further posting 'indefinitely'. I assigned 10 points, had no idea what i was doing, or how many should be assigned. So it would be good to get some guidance (Tom or Jon) on the various options, what to do, points, etc. I could not move it to Bilge, that folder option is not available in the Move dialog.
February 21, 20179 yr Thanks for doing that... IPS is suppose to have very good anti-spam protection. There will be a learning curve to figure out fast ways to deal with those that sneak in.
