Kill_Life Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 Hello, Currently we have 5? report abuse choises. Of course we have the "Other" for keylogger. But ain't it possible to make "Keylogger" or "Virus". When you report it, and put that word in, the message will get hidden automaticly. That way, people won't get a virus or something when they don't read the messages of others, which happens often... A moderator can find out if it's safe or not. This will get abused? When you abuse this power, mods can always bann you. Ofcourse, when it looks suspicious, it's always interesting to do so. Just use the Other? Lately, there was a keylogger in the Graveyard... It was reported for like 5 hours and still not removed. When there is no mod or anything online, it's always usefull to have this. I hope this will make us safe, ~Kill Life "A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do"[Currently playing: K1ll L1f3] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kickbuta Posted January 21, 2007 Share Posted January 21, 2007 This is a pretty good idea, Although to be fair, typing in "keylogger" in the wee text box isn't that hard to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loge_05 Posted January 22, 2007 Share Posted January 22, 2007 The simple solution is more Global Moderators. Tip.It has become localised, which was great for some forums but bad for others. Offline and unavailable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kill_Life Posted January 22, 2007 Author Share Posted January 22, 2007 Indeed, that could work aswell, and I've seen that problem a lot before. During American populare times, a lot mods are playing. Tough, on Europian mornings and noons, no one... And that can stay like that a few hours...

There needs to be a planned effort to get moderators from different time zones to keep the forums constantly moderated. < | Runehead | Learning Java Programming, Please PM Me Tips | Signature by Loaf2000 | > Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ranging_beast Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 I personally think the report should be changed to that. Im sure that I got my old keylogger that made my computer broke down and now its like a pile of metal junk in my room sitting there, that I got from either a PK vid or some random links (yeah I was lax in the past). I think this should be used, very good suggestion. Ranged Crave I'M SO EMO HAHAHAHAHAHA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deloriagod Posted January 23, 2007 Share Posted January 23, 2007 The biggest problem I see is someone having a grudge against another person so they use the new feature to hide their posts. Now say there aren't many mods online at the time or they're busy with other things. Those posts that probably don't even contain keyloggers/viruses are hidden until a mod can get around to checking them. Also, I mostly post in Off Topic and even with all the links I see, I've never gotten a virus/keylogger. Is it really that big of a threat around here that we need a special feature for it?

To the issue you bring up about people with a grudge, abuse of this system could probably call for an automatic ban lasting maybe a week or possibly even a perminant ban if abused too much. don't worry, you are going to "hell" anyway. wanna race to see who gets there first?Officially reached 100 Combat at 1:33PM EST, June 14, 2007First Dragon Drop: Dragon Chain (Dust Devils) @ 10:48PM EST, July 14, 2008, lv113 combat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
