Reporting Spammers Delay?
There appears to be a very industrious spammer at work on the forum this evening, in the last few minutes he's made about a dozen posts on the main page advertising his Bangladesh "all-in-one" website.
Of course like a good little Warrior I clicked the report triangle and reported his nasty activities to the mods. But it was while reporting the second one that I received the message "this forum requires you wait 60 seconds between reports" (or something of that nature, don't remember the exact words or time).
In this particular case I simply reported that ALL of the users posts were spam, and I'm sure our mods will take care of the situation. But it did have me wondering why there was a restriction in reporting problem posts? I suppose it could be to prevent spamming the mods, but in this particular case the spammer was cranking them out faster than I could report them.
Just wondering if there might be a way to change that - maybe allowing long-time members or those with sufficient post counts to bypass the time restriction?
This isn't a complaint, but more of a suggestion - the ability for members to assist the mods in policing the content of the forum is one of the things makes the Warrior Forum such a great resource. Just thought that there might be a way to make that aspect even better.

Greatness is difficult to appreciate from close up. The great mountain on the horizon is only the ground when you are standing on it.
