About the spam on the site. (An active reporter blog)

I'm just another user, but I've been kind of help An with filtering out the bots, and repost spam from the layouts section of the site. I am not asking to get paid, or anything like that. I love the site and it's design and just want to ensure it stays a safe, ad-free experience for everyone. I'm just one user though. So I guess I'm asking fellow users to help out with reporting bot accounts, spam accounts, and spam entries on the site so we can clean things up and help An build a stronger spam filter for the site. I'm not asking folks to spend all day doing this, nah, I have time to spare when I'm not occupied with housework or commissions, but I am asking for ya to report it if you see it, please. An can't do this alone, even with their sister helping out with hosting. Community works together, so let's do that, okay?

Man we need stronger tools to fight back the spam content and bots on this site. Reporting ain't enough. Need something in the account creation to throw these bots for a serious loop and stop them from signing up.

I've been trying to report spam, at least the more annoying serial spam that clogs forums, but without a couple more moderators at the least there's only so much that can be done.

Oh I agree completely. I'm not sure how serious An is about protecting the site from being flooded with bots, advertisers, and businesses trying to pump the market into the sites content feeds and forums.

Pwouty, what I see is someone that clearly disregards the reality and science of other peoples gender identity and won't accept any education, or outreach to learn to do better. Please leave my space. I'm trans, and no, my existence is just as valid as your own.
