You're welcome DA.  I was looking for some tips for the grandson for when he gets his new Air 3 and sure enough Matthew posted another great video.

Normally his videos pop up in my feed but this one got censored by Youtube.

That's rather odd.  Wonder why it got censored?  Probably only YT will know.

I find it happens a lot,  theres a news channel that I sub to and I only get 1% of the videos they post appear in the list,   but If I goto their channel they all appear.  Ive tried unsubbing and resuming but it made no difference.

Yeah, that is really strange.  Not sure how else you could correct that.

I put it down to one of the YouTube quirks.

That sounds like a good location to place the blame.

It really doesn't take too long to fall way behind on the forum.

True. We're keeping it active

Very true.  Seems to be a lot more spammers recently also.

Ok, I'm usually busy in older threads, so I probably miss most of them.

Then, you really haven't missed anything.

That is good to know.

It seems many of the spammers simply return using a different email address.  However, many times the threads are written using the same words and pictures of the previous spammer that was banned.  Not sure how Mavic Forums does it but they rarely have spammers on that forum.

Most likely a better filter.

That could well be the difference.

Not sure how they operate, but the one on this forum is falling behind.

Montfrooij Posted at 3-11 23:45

Indeed it is.  

DowntownRDB Posted at 3-12 09:30
Indeed it is.

Which is a shame, but nothing we can do about that.

Just keep on helping the Admin/sMods by reporting them.  They have a "report" button but it has never worked.

Oh yes, I almost forgot about that.

Montfrooij Posted at 3-12 11:32

Don't bother using it as it is not monitored or at least that was what one of the Mods told me.

I hope they will remove that button then.

Montfrooij Posted at 3-12 23:18

If that can't fix it where reports are seen in a timely fashion by the Mods then they might as well delete the button.  

The forum was overrun by spammers this morning.  Took me a while to get them all reported.  I started posting their Avatars so that others didn't duplicate the spam report.

I have to say I never look what others reported.
Just report and move on.

Ahh, I try my best to not duplicate as that just puts more work on the Mods/Admins as it is.

That is nice indeed.
Because I have been late to the party, I doubt I interfered.

Takes everybody's keen eyes to catch all the spammers.

Absolutely.
Found one new one. And the thing is, it was an old thread, but the spam was added today.

That's how the spammers get enough post by replying to old threads that they think nobody will look at then they have enough posts to start their own thread....a spam thread.

Ah ok. But the new threads are picked up by 'us' and the old ones remain

Unless we stumble across the old ones they never get reported.

I was hoping they would remove the accounts.

At least that account gets banned but they just re-invent themselves using a new email address.
