Go to the WSO and look on the first page and you will see the same type of post being created by 1 person. Basically he says all the wso's are scams.

Maybe he had bad experience with WSO and he want to express his anger?

I see what you mean. I've done a post report as a spammer. Have you?

I have reported as many as I can but it's a long process having to wait 60
seconds between each report.

Members, please do your part to get rid of this troll.

Thanks.

I went to the help desk and opened up a ticket to have the member

I reported one of its posts. There's one thing that maybe you or Allen can clear up.

What gets a troll deleted faster - giving them an infraction or reporting their post?

An infraction is simply a warning.

If enough people report a post, it should automatically
delete (In reality it goes into Moderation)

It would be nice if there was a way to automatically ban anyone who leaves the exact same message, say, more than three times in a row, and within a few minute's time.

This joker needs to be hung their toenails until all the blood in their body floods their pea-sized brain.

Just sayin'

All the best,

A massive thank you to everyone here that has reported this person!

Bev, thank you for bringing it to mine and everyone else's attention. Stuff like this needs to be dealt with!

Steven, as I'm newish here I don't know but is there a way for us all to add our names onto this ticket you've opened in the helpdesk to show our support for your quest to get this person removed?

Mark

PS - Eric Lorence, the message you left this person on his profile was just great! Glad to see you write from the heart (even though I'm positive you held back your true feelings!)

Thanks for the thread Bev.

When I went to my WSO thread and seen someone calling me a Scammer
I nearly fell out of my chair.

After a minute of research to see who this person was I found out that I
wasn't the only one they had called this.

What a Nut Case.

Here is all the threads the nut has posted the garbage in
http://www.warriorforum.com/search.php?searchid=434167

Have a Great Day!
Michael

PS, I also reported this nut case.

Man, it's like trying to keep up with product theft.

Where does it all end?

I know, you don't need to answer...it doesn't.

Wait a second... Are you refering to me?

Just in case I thought I'd remove my sig. file for this post so I can't be accused of spamming the forum! The last thing I'd want to do!

No Mark! Didn't mean you at all.

New person posting "thank yous" that look quite bot-like in the WSO section on multiple threads there.

Thanks Kay. I totally missed the "WSO's" part you put in the original message! That would have given me a HUGE clue if I hadn't missed it.

I think it's time I called it a day and took a break - my mind's getting tired!

Take care,
