    Default Disabling Post Count in the Open Trackers Section

    Its been brought to the attention of the staff in this thread that the spam in the Open Trackers section is out of control. As such, disabling post count in that section has been broached. As this is a major section of the site, and since it is your site as much as it is ours, we want to hear your thoughts. Please go to the poll and cast your vote.

    Thanks TI!

    xoxo

    I think you should disable the post count if there is an excessive amount of useless posts in that section.

    Yup, It's right that the spam is getting out of hand in Open Trackers Section now even after the reminder of many members and MODs not to post SPAM. But still the Spam is on there.
    Disabling Post count would be better but I think it would be a little injustice with some Great member there who post there to keep us informed and put lots of time and work in it. They just don't mean to spam but to Help the community.
    Specially sTuDD, IMAGINE, Free, TORRENTBEAST and some other members.
    Who are doing a great job by keeping us up-to-date.
    I think I saw a suggestion about Spam Control last night and that was approved too. That would be a good solution. I mean this one

    Just my opinion. All depends upon the Staff who will make the Final decision.



    EDIT: I have got one more simple solution if MODs don't mind that.That is
    Whenever someone posts about an open Tracker so after posting he should immediately CLOSE his Thread. SO there would be no SPAM then, even if someone wants. It's that simple. But again the Staff has to decide.

    I suggest that the creator of the thread gets his post when creating a thread counted and others don't.

    meta

    ofc, posts as "i'l give a try" or "let me check" or "thanks mate, great site" are all spam

    Default Idea only

    In my opinion the most spam come from that in this section add posts including only thanks not helpful reply so If T-I stuff can make a rule that if you want to thank the publisher only use Thank button and do not post this on individual post if you do not you may be punished by not only discount this post but as example 5 or 10 post from your account

    Disable them. No one care about how high post count you have if you have useless posts. And most posts there are useless, except for the first post. And they will receive rep accordingly. So for me its very okay to disable them.

    PM asking for invites on your own risk. If your PM is incredibly stupid, it WILL be posted in the mocking block.
    Thank you to TI staff for five wonderful months!

    what about adding the groan button back to only that section and/or making an announcement that no posting there unless 48 hours has past and the tracker is still open and for how long if possible or better yet I read some where someone suggested a bump button for that section and that would eliminate or should all spam so I say with the combination of the groan button introduced back to only that section and a bump button should do it along with infractions and hopefully they get the hint?

    just my double headed coin (2 cents:D)

    "Thanks for this awesome News .. i will join that Tracker soon .. omg they are open thanks for informing ..."

    If you see replies other than that .. that guy deserves an thanks .. its like that ... in 99 spam posts there will be only 1 useful one .. i mean the replies nothing meant for creators of the threads ofc :)

    SO MY VOTE IS 100% DISABLE THE POST COUNT THERE AND IN ANY OTHER SUCH SECTION ..
