Over the past few days I've stumbled across late in the day Forum posts with
a bunch of links off site to CBD products and other inappropriate content. Obviously
timed late enough in the day to try and get them ignored until the next morning.

When I see them, I file a Problem Forum Message Report in the Problem Center.
https://www.bricklink.com/problemMessage.asp

Within minutes the messages are taken down.

I'm sure others are also finding and filing similar reports.

Thank you Admins for working hard and reacting quickly to keep the Forums from
becoming a spam dumping ground.

You have a thankless job. Not sure everyone realizes the 24 x 7 effort all of
you share to manage the site and forums.

That’s because they won’t let us (mods) touch the codebase or open and close
stores.

wow...

that's why you don't have that power Sylvain.. because if you did ...
you could open your own store, then permanently shut down any & all of your competition
of anyone who either you disagree with or who owns you or embarrasses you in
the Forum.

but thanks for letting us know...

🤦

While I also report these when I see them, these posts really shouldn't exist
in the first place. There are easy solutions (that have been mentioned time and
again on the forums) to prevent them from being posted.

But yeah, the Mods/Admins do indeed remove them very quickly, so hats off to
them.

Very well said, I also appreciate how quickly the admins are in getting this
taken care of.

Big Thank you!
