There is a user who posted an irrelevant ad on a magazine I follow, so I clicked their profile to see if the rest of what they posted was spam too. It was. However, I didn’t find a report user option on their profile. Is there one anywhere? I know I can go through and report their individual posts, but I’d also like to flag the user for attention.
The workaround I have is to put e.g. “See user profile, it’s all spam,” on the comment for an individual report.
Ernest would be the one that would have to ban them from the site. A comment he made recently about the spam situation:
This month, the largest update is planned. It’s taking a long time because part of the team is returning from vacation, hence the delays. I hope that the update will resolve some of the most pressing issues. I’m also trying to remove spam systematically, but currently, the code is my priority. After implementing the new version, I will seriously address the community.
If there’s anything urgent, currently contacting through the form is the quickest option. Cheers!
Try using the contact link at the bottom of the kbin page. That’ll send a message to the admin of the server you are on.
You can try PMing Ernest but I don’t think he cares or has time for it.
Last time I just reported all their posts, and put snippets of the Monty Python spam skit in the various reports.
Hopefully it gave the admins a chuckle while they removed the account.
