Just wondering if I were to report a post, how long does it usually take for a staff member to take action?

Profile: SecretBase < shouldn't this person be banned by now (or at least "spammer crowned")

thanks for notifying us. we will get on to that.

usually when someone reported the status, we will get it done within one day.

I have noticed from time to time some members will go to threads in the Gallery and/or Tabs and Lyrics Section and post "Thanks/Thanks for this/Thank you" on many threads.

You're grateful.We get it.Posting your thanks on a few threads is fine,but not nearly on the whole damn section.

From now on,too many posts saying the same thing "Thanks/Thank you" will be considered as spam.

I believe i've made myself very clear on this.

This was implemented a long time ago in that section, but since there are also peeps doing it in the gallery or in any other sections, then it will be for all as Eugene has said.

I got the SPAMMER without notice, no huge SPAM word ... nothing, just SPAMMER ...
I thought there will be a SPAM word in the post before the SPAMMER thing
... it seems like
thanking for the translation and greeting new members = spam

I never posted more than one post in topics like:
blog translation ... or Say Hello ...

and that you can check in the topics.

I saw in the fun corner from one user more than 5 posts (just in one topic) ... if that is OK, than take that SPAMMER thing away from me ...

It's stated right here...

It's not if you write X number of posts in a row, which is a form of spam and eventually get punished, but how much you contribute to the topic. Certainly phrases like "Thank you for the translation" or "Welcome" do not add anything new at all.

Being in a forum is not about having the biggest amount of posts, it's about sharing ideas and experiences.

Then lets see if I´m the only one who write the same ...

There are lot more people here who post the same "Welcome words" ... so why I got punished?

how long does it take, till that SPAMMER thing disappear ... ?

The system looks great, best thing to take spam down but i´ve one question:
is every spam report proven?
so that there can be no illegitimate given spam report?
Im a bit scared, everytime i check my profile to see if there´s no spam report .wtf.

If a person reports a SPAM post which is not spam but actually the person making a false report,we will punish the reporter instead.

Thanks for the Warning!

I have a doubt.

in the thread of what are you listening to right now

I named the band and the song.

Can it be that because it has inadvertently miss spam?

I ask because I want to clarify that it was not my intention to offend anyone

I'll be careful from now on to prevent from Spam I'ts too scary for me

Hahaha, I like your example pictures.

Thanks for showing us what you guys consider SPAM. I will be very careful

An important update on spamming in SCANDAL-Heaven:


I've noticed of late that certain members,especially members who are new to the forum,tend to post rather extravagantly in some forums,eg. SCANDAL Talk,SCANDAL Poll Section,SCANDAL Gallery etc etc..

We do appreciate the active participation in all discussions,be they SCANDAL or non SCANDAL related,but posting in more than 10 threads in one shot is a little ridiculous,and not only ridiculous,but many times old threads have been pushed to the front page of the forum,causing newer and more important news to be pushed to the later pages.I understand that this is at times used as a tactic to gain 50 posts in a short space of time to have access to the SCANDAL Media section.

Hence we've come up with a limit for posting in forums:

-No posting in more than 12 threads in a forum within a 2-hour limit.
-A forum means the main forum of any sub-forum that is under the main forum,

Eg. One member may only post 12 posts within 2 hours in SCANDAL Gallery,hence all his/her posts in SCANDAL blog,live,official pictures thread may add up to no more than 12 posts in the main SCANDAL Gallery forum.

-The same applies to every forum,SCANDAL or not SCANDAL related.
-Violation of this rule will result in the offending posts to be considered as spam,and the offending member will be dealt with as a spammer.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In addition to that new rule for spamming,another update:

Posts like "So-and-so is so cute i can't stand it xoxoxoxoxo","Thanks for the translation!" "Thanks for the pics!" "Thanks for farting!" is fine,but not in several threads at once.You're grateful,we get it.There is no need to spill your gratitude into 10 threads.We also understand the need to spazz over these 4 cute girls,but,again,keep it down to a reasonable amount.I am just reiterating the point that copious posts like these will result in the member being dealt with as a spammer.


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

That is all for now for the update on spamming.Please feel free to ask any questions you may have,espeically on the new 12 posts per forum in 2 hours rule.

erm, im really sorry, i dnt understand it, can u plz explain it 2 me, soz 4 being a dits, and does it effect the Fun corner,

^ If I understood, we're no longer allowed to post more than 12 times in a same forum within a 2 hours limit, it means:

- Not allowed to post 12 times in a row in SCANDAL news or any other forum
- But we're allowed to post for example, 6 times in "SCANDAL news", 4 times in "Say Hello", 7 times in the Fun Corner.

For the 2nd rule, it's just for the members who post only for thank or post just for say "can't wait!" in a thread about a release for example.

For summarize, these rules don't change really our habits, exept maybe for the fun corner for the ones who post more than 12 times in a row in 30 minutes.

Personally if I remember, the time when I posted the most on the fun corner, it was 14 times, so in reality this rule is not very embarassing.

PS: please correct me if I'm wrong ^^'

Woah. Glad this wasn't a rule before because I think I would have broken that rule a few times in the past! xD But I understand the reason why it is implemented. I often have overlooked new SCANDAL videos/updates just because a lot of old threads have gone to the top. Old threads being revived isn't necessarily bad but it shouldn't be revived just for increasing post count. Thanks for the update and good work!

The new update applies to all forums in SCANDAL-Heaven,including the Fun Corner,Say Hello,and whatever other forums there is.

o ok tnx, so let me get this right, say i did 12 post in SCANDAL news, so now i have 2 wait 2 hours right, 2 do my next set of 12

Oh My!...This Is the First Time I have read this update..I Shall Limit my Post From Now On
I Really Should Be More Aware About The Rules And Regulations Here... so 12 posts is the Limit and i have To Wait For 2 hours Before Posting Another 12??..

tomo13:That is correct.

Glad I read this right away. Almost broke the new rule. (Had to count my posts up to now. Glad they weren't 12 yet. Whew.) But it's nice that this has been set up. It keeps the conversations here healthy.

I'm still a little lost, though... Say I made 12 posts already in Fun Corner. Does it mean that within the next two hours, I can't post anywhere? Or I can still post in SCANDAL Talk or Member Discussion but not yet in Fun Corner? :s

^ from what i understand is yes, you can still post in any other forums even if your fun corner has been reached.

every link that you see on the main page, like SCANDAL Talk and Fun Corner is considered a main forum, and whatever forums that you find inside these links are subforums, for example inside the main forum "SCANDAL gallery" you can find subforums like Blog, Live, Magazine etc.

the catch is that the total number of posts you can make in each main forum is 12 every 2 hours. for example, within SCANDAL gallery, you can post 6 times in blog, 4 times in Live and 2 times in Magazine, which adds up to 12 in total for SCANDAL gallery.

if i didn't misinterpret anything wrongly, you are still able to post, for example, 12 each in SCANDAL News, Fun Corner, Say Hello etc, as these comes the main forum section. Just refrain from spamming too much.

Btw good job to the admins for implementing this, I've also been realising a much higher number of old topics being revived for no reason by newer members and I've been hoping to see something done about it. In fact I think this was the reason I've overlooked this update for so long.

Just think you can rephrase this sentence cos it sounds damn confusing

A forum means the main forum of any sub-forum that is under the main forum,

I think you could just explain that main forums are links that can be found on the main page of SH or something like that.

I apologize for the wording.Let's see if i can make things clearer.

To answer kylelaluces's question,yes you can post 12 posts in the Fun Corner,and then go on to post another 12 in Say Hello,and then another 12 in SCANDAL Talk,and another 12 in...You get the idea.

You can post 12 posts in SCANDAL Talk,Gallery,Poll Section etc etc each.

But in forums such as SCANDAL Gallery,where the Gallery divides into Blog-Live-Magazine-etcetc,the sum of your posts in these forums may only add up to 12 posts within 2 hours.

Eg.

Blog-2 posts
Magazine-5 posts
Live-5 posts

Total-12 posts in SCANDAL Gallery.This is correct.


However,if there are

Blog-10 posts
Live-12 posts
Magazine-12 posts

Total-34 posts in SCANDAL Gallery.

This is wrong.

Uh...Was that clear enough?

thank god i slowed down my posts these past months XD if i remember correctly i almost filled up the first page in the fun corner before XD hahahahaha!!!
