Default Can we have a faster "Troll Alert"

Seems Trolls can continue their merry way for 20 minutes at least!

The alert system is quite slow at times - maybe mods could help this (michael21 will be happy to help)

I have suggested a limit on who can start threads to those with 50 posts. But I don't think admin agreed. Plus it wouldn't stop people from spamming in existing threads.

Something needs to be done, in twenty minutes a troll can spam multi threads, as just happened.

20 minutes is a faster response than you'd get from the emergency services a lot of the time you know

I presume you know that that that is unwarranted and condescending in the extreme?

Trolls and spammers are 2 different things btw.

The report system we have now is fine tbh theres just not always a mod or admin online when things are reported or they are in a different area of the forum.

Fingers, Marc was joking with his posts, I think you are taking things a bit too serious.

Thanks for replying, however "jokes" don't work in print, that's why members get infracted or banned.

They need to hire some people who only have the ability to delete posts and threads, it would really improve the BB section and a lot of others.

I think they should have temporary staff with the powers I stated just for on season, I', sure they can handle it during off season.

There's plenty staff available for both on and off season, no one can see every single thread or post that's made the minute they are posted that's why we have to rely on reports sometimes, having someone with the power to delete posts wouldn't make any difference because they would still have to rely on reports at times too.
