There are many things they could do. There just aren't many they will do. So far the only solution they have is clean up the threads every few days Monday through Friday if they have time.

i think it's more like what they won't do. frelorn does need to find a solution to that problem. it's like the half-arsed solution to the signature spam. for some, they have none. for others, theirs are broken. for certain others, there's no change.
there are vbulletin solutions for dealing with the spam. they're free, easy to implement, and will solve the problem before it gets to the message board. that should be a no-brainer, but this is the new turbine. LOL. :p
Bump.
Sergio :-)
If they really had both the desire and the resources to do something about this, they would have done something by now.
i agree, which is why i have never used the forums for that purpose, unlike yourself.
ah, there you go again, assuming that what you do negatively affects me, thereby proclaiming "butt hurt". i would surmise that it is, in fact, YOU who are suffering from being "butt hurt".Quote:
However, thank you for following me around and empowering me with your butt hurt.
are you out of preparation H so soon, princess?
They still don't seem to be able to fix this. Disappointing Turbine and Warner Brothers.
So lets see: a few pages of spam threads which the mods somehow can't handle in a proper way - while I'm still beeing detained to only beeing able to write in this forum after 2 months as a paying customer.
Fun times.
PS: any free mod spot open? - I'd gladly do your job for you.
Still pages of spam
It may be that I am the best option at this point?
Your forums would be cleaned up in no time. Multiple times a day I would log on and wash away this blight, you can trust me. Tell all your friends in game, for a cleaner more congenial forum experience Thorgrum as a forum moderator is the answer.
Ironically enough, DDO seems to have survived this round of spamming seeing as they have more people than Cordovan to handle the loads spam that MIGHT plague it at times.
Maybe some Lotro people could take a clue from that side of turbine.
End of Turbine workday and still loads of spam. Seriously guys, this is pathetic moderation.
Thorgrum, your spam of this #### you insist on is actually worse the the spam I'm complaining about as I know its a person and not some bot. GO AWAY.
Bump.

Could "Baba" be added to the swear list #### Ji might put him off for a day or two?
perhaps 919876257329 could be a swear word too. At the very least he's have to waste time editing scripts or changing phone number.
I tried my bit a while ago, found a tool to trace India mobile company from a phone number.
As the number has changed now it might have made a difference but I received no reply:-
"To: customercare@idea.adityabirla. com
Across the world there is a forum spammer advertising the abilities of a Babba Ji guru.
+917891556551 is the number and perhaps it's a number of a client of yours?
please Google Babba Ji and you'll get some idea how annoying they are to so many people.
Hope you can do something about it."

I'm on page 26 and still reading spam! Wow turbine you can't fix your forums or game , but want people to pay? Good luck...
What I honestly find amusing is the fact they let pages of spam fill the forum, but for some reason they removed my Introduction thread. Literally had nothing in it that was against Forum rules unless they counted the guy that replied to my thread with a warm welcome, some informative links related to the game and some links to acquire codes for LOTRO items. I went to check my subscribed threads and mine had vanished lol.
What else I find amusing is the fact that I am restricted to using this Bot Spam filled cesspool of a forum even though my Account is VIP. I'm really glad that I bought all DLC and a year subscription to be treated so well....:p
