Yes, it's a lot of clicks and copy/paste. Not easy on a mobile phone.

It would probably also lead to accidentally clicked reports.
I prefer a more visible button with two-step verification to report a message.

well when you have to click the button on the post then fill in the info and
click report that would be like a 2-step verification. my suggestion would be
to have the button on the post go right to the report function, avoiding all
those extra steps and such to get there. in other words the button on the post
would take you here https://www.bricklink.com/problemMessage.asp

Can you imagine the level of misuse such a convenient tab would allow for?
The Discussions Mods might have to give up their day jobs, considering the amount
of time it would take in filtering through the invalid to find the valid claims.
On the other hand, I could be wrong and if all the Discussions Mods were to call
for it, or at least back the suggestion, I’d say why not.

you forgot to mention i've seen some serious spam posts like buying fake

My suggestion is to reduce that greatly. to go straight to the last part.

Yeah, I understood with this morning spam why you posted the suggestion. I connected
those dots before I posted my reply.
So my thoughts stand: have the mods endorse the suggestion. It's their wheelhouse.

There were two scam posts reported around 5 at night, in my timezone.
Both were canceled immediately after I woke up. 😉

You can be assured that all active moderators are working together.
It's visible below the canceled post who canceled it.

yeah but it can be worrisome since if someone posts something that is not to
be posted of an illegal nature and there is no one around to remove it, it can
cause problems for this site, like it did for Majhost.

So you want someone standing by in the forums 24/7/365 to make sure that a couple
of spam posts do not last on the forums for more than a little while? I am sorry,
but I don't need BrickLink to be a nanny for everything. People are supposed
to be adults here, and adults can take the time to figure out if something is
legitimate or not. I don't need BrickLink making sure that a "hall monitor"
is staffed all hours of the day, and I don't want the fees that sellers pay
to increase due to the need for said "hall monitor". Not to mention that spam
posts are so rare around here.

All of them are.
|
are they? when a couple scam reported posts are still up most of the day after
being reported it just tells me there is not a good spread of mods to cover all
time zones.
|
They are volunteers. They aren't required to be here around the clock.
|
yeah but it can be worrisome since if someone posts something that is not to
be posted of an illegal nature and there is no one around to remove it, it can
cause problems for this site, like it did for Majhost.
|
So you want someone standing by in the forums 24/7/365 to make sure that a couple
of spam posts do not last on the forums for more than a little while? I am sorry,
but I don't need BrickLink to be a nanny for everything. People are supposed
to be adults here, and adults can take the time to figure out if something is
legitimate or not. I don't need BrickLink making sure that a "hall monitor"
is staffed all hours of the day, and I don't want the fees that sellers pay
to increase due to the need for said "hall monitor". Not to mention that spam
posts are so rare around here.
|
Spam posts are not my concern you should learn what happened to Majhost and almost
happened to Brickshelf because they lacked proper moderation. and then you will
understand my concern since I have seen some issues like that on other sites
happen of late.

in fact people don't remember but we also had issues almost like that here
too, but had a more active moderation team at that time.

Can you imagine the level of misuse such a convenient tab would allow for?
The Discussions Mods might have to give up their day jobs, considering the amount
of time it would take in filtering through the invalid to find the valid claims.
On the other hand, I could be wrong and if all the Discussions Mods were to call
for it, or at least back the suggestion, I’d say why not.

you forgot to mention i've seen some serious spam posts like buying fake
ID's and such and I almost gave up reporting them because finding the report
post function is not user friendly. when you have to go here:
https://www.bricklink.com/helpMain.asp
Then go here:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?topicID=18
then go here:
https://www.bricklink.com/help.asp?helpID=1107
just to get to here:
https://www.bricklink.com/problemMessage.asp
My suggestion is to reduce that greatly. to go straight to the last part.
|
Yeah, I understood with this morning spam why you posted the suggestion. I connected
those dots before I posted my reply.
So my thoughts stand: have the mods endorse the suggestion. It's their wheelhouse.
|
other then Brickwilbo being on the fence (agrees it is complicated but not sure
how to fix it) have not heard from any other mods, in fact not sure who the other
mods are if any others?

I’d add Russell, as well
|
curious how many of those mods are still active moderating? cause noticed a couple
of posts reported were still around for a long while.
|
Should be all. But to what degree each are, dunno. Here are the Hall of Fame
Discussion Mods, in any case

think the hall of fame refers to past mods.

Yes, they are former admins and mods. Thought it would interest you and others.
