i guess someone among the admins would've spoken to him about it... i don't think they would make him the mod without even giving him a word about it...

well atleast they have added a mod to the forum -- now hope to see a lot of mods in action atleast so the they can delete posts/ban those friggin spammers..

half a step ahead by the admins

btw has only MHG been made a mod or is there any other person as well ??

Congrats MetalheadGautham

**MetalheadGautham** · 11-05-2009, 07:37 PM

Thanks guys

Actually it was Anorion's idea. But I was only a local mod due to an error in the forum. He and cyberjunkie fixed the issue and made me a normal global moderator. I still need to fix the banning/miserabling part though

Anyway, @din: yeah gupta is #1 on my hitlist. But the power got cut just as I was about to remove his posts.

I think the first 10 posts of new users should go for moderator's approval.Then you wont see too much spam here.

red_devil · 11-05-2009, 07:42 PM

^ then either the mods won't be able to see the light of the day or they will completely go missing from the forum

Ab mods hone ke kuch fyade hai toh nuksaan bhi honge na.

I have seen this feature in many forums.

I'm hunting for a plugin to do something like prevent links in first 20 posts or get mod approval or something like that. Will inform raaabo once I find some good anti spam plugin.

Check this plug-in : http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showt...74#post1721074
We are using it in other forum and spams have been reduced to 1% only. Just 4 SPAMs in last 15 days.

ghost at rest · 11-05-2009, 07:50 PM

BTW, congratulations MHG !

hey congrats buddy ,,, DAMN

Krazy Bluez · 11-05-2009, 08:05 PM

Congo man... so will I get to see a new light in this dark forum days...?

**MetalheadGautham** · 11-05-2009, 08:07 PM

This server is really letting me down. Takes time to delete posts.

I accidently banned a user http://www.thinkdigit.com/forum/members/74517.html on my first day and deleted half his posts because his name was highly similar to a spammers. To the user: please excuse me.

BTW, raaabo's getting new server for us. With 100mbps line instead of current 10mbps line and dual Intel Xeon 3GHz CPUs.

And we are getting our own IRC server. All issues will be fixed then.
