Deputize senior members to delete spam?

[Syzygies]

At the moment the two most recent threads are spam, 5 and 10 hours old, by different posters.

There are dozens of people here I would trust with the authority to delete threads, under a "one strike" rule: If any deletion is even remotely a judgment call, as determined by our actual admins, that authority is permanently revoked.

None of these spam threads would last 30 minutes, under such a system.

I'm going to take a break from posting until we sort this out.

Just got back from Thailand with the family for a week.
Thanks, Dave, for the head's up.
All three of you gentlemen are now moderators.
Simply click on the member's name/icon. Then click spam, and the post will be deleted, and the user will be banned.

If any other old-school members would like moderator powers, I'll be thrilled to give you those powers!

Thanks VERY BIG for your help..

Superpowers?  Hmmmm, does that mean when I look to the north and see what might be considered as the northern lights I can rest assured it's only C6Bill using these newly aquired powers?  Long time coming and a very good idea!

and a very handsome one at that. Hey, that looks like my garden behind you...yesterday I had to wrap it in chicken wire because of a woodchuck robbing me blind. He had a peculair uncanny resemblance to that gopher in Caddyshack. If this doesn't work I got some barb wire in the shed, set some traps too....if I catch the critter I plan on releasing him northeast of here.

I awoke this morning feeling a bit strange, couldn't place a finger on it but now I understand. So, is the swearing in ceremony poolside or are we going to do this remotely.

The thought of any KK owner being described as "moderate" made me laugh.  A lot.

How do I actually delete a post and ban a spammer ? I deleted the text in one and wanted to ban the spammer but not sure how. It was in the solo stove thread. The post was a link “girls in your city” I’m kind of sure it was spam lol

 

Got it, I needed to go into reported contect and ban from there then mark the report as completed
