I understand that the west coast forum is a pretty popular but we gotta stop the spammers yo. is getting annoying.
I don't mind people signing up and posting events (even misc info) but at least try and be a member of this "community". |

I've noticed that with the west coast board for a while now. Where do you draw the line, though?? Who's to say "hey these events are cool to post but don't post those events?"
You can't really expect Bas to be the one, as he occasionally promotes events that aren't entirely in line with the average user base of west coast TA. I'm not saying there's anything wrong with that - I think it's great, and he certainly doesn't abuse it.
Perhaps accounts that only create threads but never respond in them ought to be banned. That is, if an account posts an event and then somebody posts "hey i was wondering...etcetc" and the OP never bothers to get back to them it would indicate a spam account. How else could you really pick and choose? |

| Can you imagine if several more people went on TA to promote their sites and used the same scumbag method? The spam will start spreading like an uncurable virus. We need to take this little outbreak monkey down now |

I'm all for people posting events. No problem. That's part of the attraction of this board. Hell, you can hide the events thread and get rid of all of it. Most of us on here know how to respect the forum hence why I don't complain. But what we've seeing recently is kind of obvious and just really annoying.
It's seems to have stopped a bit so I'm a bit happier. Maybe I was just super pissed off for being stuck in traffic on the way home (thanks Kaskade) and it carried over to today :confused:
edit* should we add a 2nd moderator??? |

| we had this problem in the NY forums. Eventually an event subforum was made and all event threads in the main forum would be deleted / moved. |

It's not a problem of events being posted is it?
That is what I come here for, not to see you all argue about which guys music taste is superior....
I don't like seeing threads and comments constantly popping up that are just trying to get website hits.
"Plur, I am so excited to go to the Less Than 3 website"
"Me too bro, It's the best website ever!"
"Ya, this event will be great, check out the less than 3 site to see their opinion of it!"
"Trance Family >>> U .... <3 Armin for life"
"We're very happy about the hundreds and hundreds of new visitors and fans from tranceaddict.com"
Find a REAL way to promote! Do something for the scene and the music you love, don't just spam a board to get someone to click a link, then think it means you have new fans |
