Freesound Forums

Hi technicians,

With the old UI I could easily find spam messages in comments left by me and other users of the system. I reported these spammers and You looked at the spammers and removed them if necessary. This search option no longer exists and that's fine.

But now; In the following sound of me I received a spam message;

see https://freesound.org/people/klankbeeld/sounds/719197/

I did press the key: Report spam/offensive
But after a week nothing seems to be done with it because the message is still there.

For me it is easy to delete the comment but than the spammers stay unidentified for you and can sent other users new spam.

My question: Have I done the right thing and how do you now combat spammers who are marked as unwanted by users?

I did press the key: Report spam/offensive
But after a week nothing seems to be done with it because the message is still there.

Same here: I flag-up spam I see in this forum, but weeks later it is not removed.

Hi,

This is unrelated with the new UI. Basically I receive these flag notifications but I don’t have a proper way to handle them currently and some times no action is taken. I have to improve this worlflow so it is easier for me to validate flags and take actions. Thanks for reporting anyway!
