Appreciate the help but this guy just did it on my alt now, cmon now, this deserves a more proper consequence, something on BYOND's part, I don't see the need for me to do something like this when he is doing this to everybody. Please just bann this dude.

Please just bann this dude. Members have the ability to page who ever they feel like, you have the power to disable them from messaging you. I do agree that pager spamming has gotten worse and people abuse it like crazy, I just don't see Tom doing anything because the user can ban them. This happens on a lot of forums not just here.. |
I'll sue him for using 'orii' in his other name, as it's clearly trademarked by me. You can thank me later.
|
For the record, I contacted this guy (Atol Soldier), who has a history of spamming, and issued a pretty clear ultimatum. If anyone catches him or his alts spamming ever again, let us know via the support form as he has been given more than enough rope to hang himself.
|
Also, we have some ideas to autodetect and block spammers in the new pager. I think the fact that you can't easily multi-page will cut down most of it, though. As a less obtrusive replacement for multi-paging, I'd like to have a way to mass-page all your followers (who presumably _want_ your spam).
|
In that case, being able to mass-page people who are fans of your game would be handy too.
|
Ah right, I should have mentioned it. That would be a part of the package deal.
|
Perhaps some method of sending 'pager alerts' about a game from the game's hub to fans of the game? Would have a cooldown period and fans could toggle game alerts off, naturally. Would be a nice way of keeping fans posted on things that wouldn't really require a forum post.
EDIT: Danny beat me to it. |
Yeah he keeps spamming, I vouch for sillychild. He does it on Atol Soldier too.
|
I remember reporting Atol Soldier for pager spamming several times about two years ago during the NEStalgia boom.
I'm just glad we have a pager-less standalone client so I don't have to field complaints from our players about that goober anymore. His spam had made a lot of people very wary about using BYOND. |
