Hide deleted spammer threads?

**Mike_TV** · 08-15-2011 09:35 AM

Is there any way to hide the deleted spammer threads? I stepped through my profile settings and didn't see anything related to that. Maybe the mods can just hide deleted threads on their end?

There is still a bunch of non deleted threads on here also that should go away. Makes things look messy and un-moderated...

I am recently empowered to help too. I am learning the tools and starting to get the hang of it

We're going to be appointing more moderators soon.

If anyone has free time and is willing to help keep the forums clean, send me a PM and I'll add you to the list of those interested in helping out.

Awesome! With our forum we run it took close to two years to slow down the influx of spammers after we ignored the member list for a number of years.

The bots are quite sophisticated. Too bad the authors don't go help a worthy cause and help MS fix Windows...

If you have an example of a thread you can see says deleted, can you give a link?
With my permissions, I see them all. I've looked without logging in and both Moderated, and Deleted do not show.
There are a few ways to deal with spam.

Not answered yet and I still see deleted threads. I took a snip of what I'm seeing but it doesn't appear that the forums allow me to attach a picture to this thread.

Yah, I ran into the picture issue when working on my how to guides. File upload is disabled I guess, wasn't always like that.

The worst is this topic, off-topic discussion. I see 14 deleted posts just on the first listing page.
