/img/ - Spam and moderation at 4 chan

Name: Anonymous 2009-11-27 7:31

I know from the beginning of 4chan there was little to no moderation but back then this could also be said about spam. Now the amount of spam is rising like shit after diarhea, the report function is too slow to report all the spam on the front page, those 3rd world countries spaming fucks keep changing words so the filter can't get them.
Does anyone now what 4 chan staff is doing about it?

4chan staff is around 5 mods, 1 developer and moot. It's got to the stage where there's so much spam it's very difficult to stop. Try using a proxy to post here; the majority are banned for spam; so the staff are doing their job. There are various auto bans that they have coded too for certain key words. It's just autistic fucks like Kimmo making life difficult.

My adice to you would be to use a filter. If you use Opera or firefox.

4chan staff is around 5 mods
Lol, ALT told me there were more than that, but yes it's understaffed. He also said he'd like to get more moderators outside of USA, but it's quite difficult.

1 developer
I though there were at least two or three?

Agreed.

Maybe we should, I don't know, get some more then?

Just using a post blocker doesn't really solve anything, because the spam pushes legitimate content off the boards, and if you're not seeing it you won't report it.

I wish they'd be able to implement some filter, or I dunno, require captcha for a while.

That's much easier said than done unfortunately.

What are you suggesting? Paying people to do that?

I have a great idea: next post ending in doubles gets to be a mod.

Don't bring that /b/ shit in here.

I asked ALT about the janitor application process from March of last year and he said that he didn't know what happened with that, so I guess that whole program fell apart. They should open that up again but limit it to like 25-500 applicants, and if that didn't work/not enough, just put up another global message.

Whoops! Meant 250-500

I'm guessing that a lot of janitors and/or mods in the past (excluding those from RH) have been quite untrustworthy/useless/meme-spouting, and that is the reason why there isn't a large number of them or a successful janitor application process.

Funny thing is some of them hang out on IRC like they still mod the site, haha. I think there might be more former moderators than ones who are still active. You're probably right.

I still have yet to figure out exactly *how* moot chooses his mods, but the majority of them are his irl buddies and those that aren't just got lucky. To quote one of them:

"If you want to be a mod, moot has to really, really like you."

Explains why so many of them are out of touch faggots.

Also OP, I think that they have a CAPTCHA now. I doubt that helps you in 2009 though....
