Lots of spam posting lately

Feel free to leave your suggestions on topics you want to see or features on the website! I'm not saying I can get to all of them, but I will definitely be working on improvements.

Lots of spam posting lately

Post by hotglue01 »

Hey guys!

I'm trying to spend more time on the Clubhouse to nurture this fantastic resource (thanks again, Kikya). But I've noticed recently that there are lots of weird spam marketing posts... any idea how to get rid of/prevent them?

Thanks!

Hi, unfortunately I think the only thing we can do is click the report button that appears next to the offending post and just follow the procedure……… If I remember correctly you get a sort of form that you just fill in, explaining why you want to report The post……… Then hopefully someone in the admin team will deal with it……… thanks.

Okay, so I’ve looked at trying to report most of the spam myself, and each comment just says that its already been reported so is this may be because you’ve reported them? If not then somebody else has already done it……… 😊

Hopefully the Admins will move in now and stop these spammers clogging up the front screen………

I've never thought to report them. I just try not to click on them. It's good that they've been reported at least. :)

Wow, thanks so much! I didn't actually report them because I wasn't sure how to do that, but I'm glad that there're people here doing the good work :)

Thanks, guys!

Sorry guys, I've been super busy at work. Working too many hours. But I have deleted and banned all the spammers.

I do tend to go on a bit of a reporting spree, and then the lovely Kikya gets rid of them all! :)
