wired Level 9 Seer Posts: 161	I think that it would be great if on portals, there was a button to report spam. I am kinda irritated by all the portals linking to peoples pages asking for free DP. EDIT: Or maybe portals with like 2/5 stars or less auto get deleted after awhile. This would basically automatically remove spam and bad portals. Not only that but it would encourage people to post worthwhile portals. by wired 10 months ago \| Permalink
karmie Level 12 Destroyer Posts: 45	Oh thank goodness someone else is annoyed by it too!! Being able to report someone spamming for DP would be nice, but how would we define what constitutes spam? 3 times? More? I wonder also how the moderators of this wonderful game can police spam portals. They'd have to investigate each report of a spam portal, etc. I just don't know if it's a feasible idea :(. by karmie 10 months ago \| Permalink
karmie Level 12 Destroyer Posts: 45	Ooooh, I like that suggestion. It would also get rid of creating even more work for the PMOG crew. by karmie 10 months ago \| Permalink
wired Level 9 Seer Posts: 161	Yeah I think it would work well, while not being a hassle. by wired 10 months ago \| Permalink
joe Level 10 Seer Posts: 145	Yeah, I hate that stuff. It's so annoying... I'd like to be able to browse PMOG pages in peace. Putting major PMOG pages in your missions should count as spam as well, because it's almost always purely to get people to take the mission. by joe 10 months ago \| Permalink
pixielo Level 20 Pathmaker Posts: 3706	I would love to see the begging portals disappear as much as everyone else. How about portals that get 5 [-1] votes just go 'bye-bye?' by pixielo 10 months ago \| Permalink
joe Level 10 Seer Posts: 145	I don't like the absolute system, because it's too easy to abuse and not really scalable. I like the stars. by joe 10 months ago \| Permalink

wired Level 9 Seer Posts: 161	I've never begged for DP but I'm certainly guilty of having some useless portals around :( by wired 10 months ago \| Permalink
ertyseidel Level 9 Seer Posts: 25	Apparently portals go away after 50 uses, so they'll burn themselves out eventually anyway. I like the stars idea, though. --Erty by ertyseidel 10 months ago \| Permalink
joe Level 10 Seer Posts: 145	Whoa, portals go away? How do you know that? by joe 10 months ago \| Permalink
karmie Level 12 Destroyer Posts: 45	In another post it's written that they go away after 50 uses. by karmie 10 months ago \| Permalink
wired Level 9 Seer Posts: 161	Even if they do go away after 50 uses, I don't wanna have to see the spam/worthless portals until then :-P by wired 10 months ago \| Permalink

aalbright Level 15 Destroyer Posts: 225	You should be able to report a player as spam too, like all of those "fake" shoats, that are really just created as alts to create havoc. by aalbright 29 days ago \| Permalink
sylverling Steward Level 20 Pathmaker Posts: 1598	holy necrothread, batman. if you have a problem with an alt, you can report it from the contact page, and Trustees can deal with it appropriately. They already do deal with alts created for tool farming. by sylverling 29 days ago \| Permalink
