Why can't the moderator get a handle on the spam?

Why are they allowing this? The current spams could be stopped with very simple filters for "buy online" in the subject and things like that. Why isn't this being done?

I don't understand how those posts are getting views? We all know it's spam, why are people viewing them?

Keep in mind most of the mods work for free or very little money. They put in long hours and never complaint. Think about that before you criticize. And also they can see your IP address and know where your at within a 20 foot radius.

1) Delete any post that starts out "BUY "
2) ban most of the drug names until the spam goes away

OP, you need to purchase a Fairfax Gold account. Spam filters are much better once you pay up.

Dude, what is this "the mods" bullshit? It's one Jew pothead. And "20 foot radius"? That's not how IP addresses work. BTW, they can see AN ip address, not MY ip address.

How do people like you not understand that it's BOTS (software) that the spammer uses that also clicks on the links to generate fake views.


Just don't click on them ignore the spammer.

Depends of the bot. The good ones will read and respond to interesting or funny comments. They can also be programmed to check links and browse through ads, which they can share with other bots over the 'bot-net'. Stuff they used to have to pay people to do, robots now do it for free.
