Allow Users to Tag Spam
In the quest to combat SPAM I've thought this would be a great idea for years, and have never seen it (or anything like it) amongst the anti-SPAM solutions.
Simply, this would allow Users (perhaps selected Users) to tag a Thread as Spam. This thread would then go in the Moderation Queue and be invisible to all normal Users until a Mod gets to check it. Conditions could be set, such as: Only allow threads < hours old, to be tagged Only allow posters with > posts, to tag Require x amount of tags before it goes into the moderation queue. I find a few Users on my Forum sent notes about "x post is SPAM" repeatedly, and this would be a near ideal way to deal with it quickly. For a forum like mine which is small, and therefore often doesn't have a Mod present it would be ideal. IS there anything like this? Would anyone else be able to use it? |

Why not use the built in feature called report this post.
OR you can turn akismet on and that really knows if a thread is spam or not. |

Yeah, and all that does is REPORT the post. It doesn't deal with (hide) the SPAM at all. Until a Mod gets on to have a look at it it's still there for all to see. In non-busy forums that can be a great deal of time. Hours, even days. Especially in forums that don't require much active moderation except combatting spam.
