What is VSTF? Well we kind of got inspired by Wikia for the idea (thanks dudes). It stands for Volunteer Spam Task Force. This is a group of forumers who clean up the spam on this forum and ban the spammers (the black magic "find your lover, totally not a scam!" bots). Like V in VSTF implies, this is strictly a voluntary role. Whether you apply or not, it's up to you (though whether you're accepted or not, its up to the mod/admin team). What are the requirements for this role?- Have been around this forum for a while (in other words, your forum account wasnt born yesterday) - A decent amount of quality posts (so we know you are trustworthy) - Active on this forum on a daily basis (whats the purpose of joining the VSTF if you're only active once a week?) What the VSTF isn't and should not do- The VSTF are not moderators or admins. Leave that to the friendly purple and orange names floating on this forum - Delete threads/ban members that are not spambots (if you're not sure, use the report button and tell us why you're not sure) Note: The mod and admin team check the security logs several times throughout the day. Abuse of power will get you kicked off the VSTF and at least one forum strike. Apply with the following information: - Username on this forum - How long have you been around here? - What's your time zone and when are you active on this forum Apply Below God damn spam bots are here.

Do y'all VSTFs have access to the Forum Cleanup feature? You can just search a user up and delete everything they've posted

Seems not so long that some were complaining about the amounts of spam that was taking the team some time to remove. Now it seems some of those same people were promoted and the result ? I count twice this week's spam sat on the board. Not so easy to be on duty all of the time is it ?

I've given vstf forum cleanup privileges.
Click on the admin section next to your profile.
Click on security.
Click on forum cleanup.
Click posts, threads started, personal messages started, enter the spammer's name into the specific member section
Click calculate total
Type the word delete into the verify section and check the box below
Click delete results
Notes: - Make sure to ban the spammer's account before doing a clean up - Make sure the posts that you're cleaning up are actually from the spammer, (don't accidentally delete posts from normal users)

Yay - we're having some more babaji friends visiting us today with their generous offers! I have to say that with latest MM behavior in app, the whack-a-mole VSTF practice is being more fun than the actual game lol
