Tho i would like to point something
10 comments a day give XP that's fine
But they must be made after 24H exactly if not they are considered to be SPAM
OR if one post more than 10 comments as well regardless of their true nature.
I would like to see the time restriction lifted
Ppl are not robots to be able to make comments at the same time when you want to talk you talk there's no talking time. Hope this issue can be resolved

@skybrf
I don't quite understand what you mean. Could you rephrase it?

so sometimes there is a thread that is irrelevent and the writer got some thumbsup and we can not report the comment so how we report this kind of comments?
yazdan.
regards.

@skybrf
No?
All reported comments are manually reviewed.

After review, if moderators deem a reported comment to be spam, we will delete it. Only then will you be penalised.

I believe you can still post more than 10 comments a day (Or within 24 hours) without any penalties unless someone reports them.

@Renepton
What do you mean? You can still report spam for SG.
However, take note that false reports will not give you SG and will get you blacklisted from the report system. If you aren't receiving SG for your reports, that may be the reason.

@Kabash
Well then I don't know about others's accounts
But when i post more then 10 in a day or if 24H didn't pass XP gets revoked from my account
After i hit post immediately and i can see the XP going down
You can check my profile you will see that i leveled to 8 twice
Xp was taken from my level for '' disgraceful behavior '' as they said in their message
The only posts i do are about the article rating but they ain't timed exactly so i get penalties

@Mathi987654321
You should have known better than to spam.

@skybrf
I did not have any prior knowledge about this until you brought it up.
If that's truly the case, then you should keep to 10 posts a day.

Before another user comments another variant of "Thanks for the info", stop.
As much as you appreciate this post, keep it to yourself.

Only comment if you wish to clarify any doubts about the main post above.

Bumping this thread.

@ChooJeremy
I believe you will be notified when your comment has been deleted. You should receive a message saying "You've lost the level for disgraceful behaviour" if you've gone down a level.

What is spam?

Spam on Gamehag (or any public forum) is generally defined as repeated, unwanted, and/or unsolicited actions, whether automated or manual, that negatively affect Gamehag's (or any public forum's) users, communities, and/or Gamehag itself.

@FabulouSS
I do not recall reviewing that particular comment. Perhaps you could try asking other moderators for the reason that comment was deleted?

@dakuwanga

Nope, don't worry about it. I just accepted your friend request.
I receive multiple friend-requests a day and thus your request may have been buried with the others.

For any other readers, inform me when you send me a friend request so that I may look for and accept it. If not, it will be ignored.

@thunderdome2020

Yes, they do count as spam.
Regarding your accidental false report, I've given my response to that in a separate thread.

@Visty

Generally, you may do so. It is prohibited to post any comments which are insulting/offensive. However, it's not prohibited to swear.

As always, always consider the context of the comment before reporting. If the word was not directed towards any user/used as an adjective/adverb, then it shouldn't necessarily be reported.

@Visty

I was away for a couple of days. Just inform me either through this thread/DMs and I will look into your report and revoke it if it is indeed an accident. Note that I'll only assist you with this 1-2 times. Be more careful in the future and do not spam-click the report button.

@mixtape_maker

You were banned for making multiple spam comments. I had deleted those comments and issued you your temporary forum ban. Do not make such comments in the future.

@Butterlordx1

Can you elaborate on that?
If you meant that receiving penalties are annoying, then do not make any infractions which results in penalties.

If not, feel free to correct me.

@thunderdome2020

If you find an entire spam thread, feel free to send it the link to it either through this thread of by DMing me.

I've just accepted your friend request, so you can DM me link.

@mrssalter

We're able to view the context. In fact, we're able to locate the specific thread in which the reported comment is in.

Don't worry about reporting such comments, we always take the context into account when evaluating reports.

@Yaeger

Frequent spam will result in a permanent forum ban.

so, I check this group that I joined a long time ago and the very first thing I see is straight up this dude literally spamming the whole group thread! I'm not saying like, 4 or 5 spam but the entire group! How can people still spam like this!!! his name is "vanoss3" if anyone sees him, report him!
also, The group's name is "dont_waste" it's literally full of spam and I'm trying to quit this dumb group! (if anyone knows how, tell me)
