i think the mods have been doing an excellent job of handling this and yes quite a few have been poping up seems like its a problem i think we should come up with something that won't give the mods any extra unnecessary work and going through their post must be a PITA since i see they post like 20 after a few min of signing up maybe instead of approving member (which would make mods have to approve people and hold things up) a limited user type account for the first two weeks like 5 post limit or only 2-3 post a day type thing so if its spam you can tell right off the back and won't have to delete 20-30 post across 5-6 different threads or topics, i just think this could be an alternative to approving each member but id say what ever is easiest for the mods. for the time being when i see i spammer i will report and add them to this list. again thank to the mods they keep this website running smooth friendly and informative.

yea i know coomer is not around and hasn't been for quite a while but you never know, im just throwing ideas out there if they get implemented or not is not my goal its just to give ideas incase someone can do something they have options i haven't seen coomer actually post something in like over 2yrs and i honestly don't know if he has even logged on since, but like i said i would rather make things easier for the mods since they sometime have to go through alot of bs to help keep our site as great as it is, and i know each of them have their own live and priorities and don't wanna have to be on here deleting post and banning spammers there plenty of other thing they would like to be doing with there free time.

Since it seems Coomer isn't returning any time soon, to implement some kind of anti-bot precautions on new members. This. Also I can't remember, but long time ago I was part of a forum that would only allow new "members" a certain amount of posts in a given time period. This could work as most of these spammers hit for about a day then disappear/ would limit the amount. For example the newest spammer posted like 15 times in each subforum, the above system could stop them at say like 10-15 altogether. Sort of a flood control, similar to the one we have with the search function. -------------------- 6gcHeroes:808hectortimmybatmandiegotigamak |

^depend why capabilities the moderators have ATM. Could be simple or very complex.
If its a bit doing it, a capture code to sign up would fix it. Or like you said, new members have to wait 2 weeks till they can post etc. But yeah, in the meantime some more moderators just to delete some posts would be handy

They can get past the "captchas" I've seen it happen. Best solution would be that the first post of a new member has to be approved by a moderator. That and a couple of new mods that're regulars would be nice too.

Sadly we (moderators) don't have the power to add more Mods nor do we have the ability/tools to make it more difficult for spammers to register, thats all in the power of Coomer our admin. From what i've heard he's not to active on facebook if your trying to contact him, but try his other website pedalroom -------------------- |

Like the mods said though, nothing can be done without Coomer. I'm sure he would have some ideas to keep them out too if he was still interested in 6gc. Also the extra text box may not be efficient if the user is a person just posting everywhere.
Until than..

Instead of griping, I would like to extend my gratitude to the moderating team for their patience and keeping this issue under control. I'd love to see spam control measures go into effect just like anyone else but for now, we'll have to settle for what we have. So thank you guys for taking the time out of your day to take care of the site.

I feel bad for the poor mods who have to keep cleaning up the threads once a bot hits. A few years back we needed some upgrading to the site I think we had to join together and spam coomer via email and Facebook. It would be nice if someone could at least have the privilege to make changes so the site run smooth. Has anyone tried to reach out to Coomer to make him aware of whats going on?

He doesn't give a crap unfortunately. There's nothing anybody else can do to change anything. Like Rusty says, try spamming him on Pedalroom.com Ok, I will make a pedalroom.com account and I will spam him. Who's with me? -------------------- |

I sent a message. I hope more people will. I will send one every day if it gets him to help us out.
I sent it on pedalroom.com I also saw he has two twitter names @coomer and @pedalroom he has a linkedIN and of course Facebook. We have a few options to use to spam him! -------------------- |
