Re: Forum Raids

You cannot view pictures when all mods are offline. But that's not the reason I came here at all.

I would quit the forums. This would be obnoxious.

Ignore should do it. Along with Jakery's Flag post idea, once it gets enough flags, nobody can view it till mods review it.

Re: Forum Raids

Maybe you should change the time between posts to 5 or maybe 10 minutes when no mods/admins are online.

EDIT: Maybe 3 minutes is better. I post about once every 3 minutes when im on the forum.

Re: Forum Raids

We've been asking that question for three pages, I don't think they want to respond to it

I know he's building a proxy scanner, that of course will eliminate multiple accounts. One forum troll per user.

Yeah, well, you know that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.

Re: Forum Raids

Let's brainstorm some ideas to protect against forum raids.
*BRAINSTORMING*

BRAINSTORM:

- Jakery's flagging idea.
- If something gets reported or flagged under something containing the word "raid", it gets hidden automatically by the server until a mod reviews it.
- Secure ignoring feature.
- Using the powerful censoring system, censor all of the images via censoring the tag content. I think this is a good idea.
- Use a captcha if you post more than 4 times over a very short period. I think this is a good idea aswell.
- Add brainstorming ideas to this list and use them.

*END BRAINSTORM*
Not many, but 3-4 of my 5-6 ideas are my own.

Re: Forum Raids

I think you should add a "raid" option when reporting a post, and that post is automatically temporarily deleted. If it is abused, it is an automatic ban as well.

I still think this is the best option for when there are no mods.

Re: Forum Raids

Why don't we use the PROT3CTOR (or something) feature?   It allows you to scan for, among other things, users with images in their first few posts.   Best of all, it's built into Forumify!

Re: Forum Raids

Make a captcha for every post with images. I wouldn't mind captcha-ing.

rdococ, your idea that says [- Using the powerful censoring system, censor all of the images via censoring the tag content.] Would be easily bypassed by saving the image to your computer and re-uploading it. But I guess it's an option, if deh 'dmins can figure it out.

Hey, every little bit helps. Do that, and we have no more spam bots. Not that we had any to begin with, but...

Re: Forum Raids

I wonder if there's a program that can delete all images found on inappropriate sites.

For instance, if ebay was an extremely inappropriate place, it would be blocked by most child locks. Somehow get access to that list of all inappropriate sites, and store all it's pictures for auto-removal.

If this were to take place, I would not be able to post the following pictures:

Re: Forum Raids

One problem, there is way too many inappropriate content on the internet and you can bypass it easily,

Re: Forum Raids

What are "forum Raids"? I hear yall talking about inappropriate pictures, so I guess that has something to do with it.

Re: Forum Raids

More then just that. Spamming random stuff in tons of topics. Posts full of jibberish. Post full of cussing with nothing to do with the topic. Those are other type of raids.

Re: Forum Raids

So now we're allowed to make posts full of "jibberish"? I think that is a bad idea and will ruin the forum. I don't want to make forum raids. Who decided it would be a good idea to allow this?

Re: Forum Raids

Linus is back.   We NEED some sort of contingency plan, because this is going to keep happening.
