New Spam

The spam is so bad this morning that I have given up on reading the forum for today.

Sorry for the mess, I just cleaned it out.

Why can't the clever Insided deal better with this using tech; it looks to be low intelligence level spam that ought to not need janitor level clean ups.

I notice that the tradition of allowing low intelligence spammers in while at the same time putting perfectly normal posts from high count posters on ice continues. While Sonos Staff does double duty as janitors and users are asked to flag spam so it can be swept away.

Onwards and upwards, Sonos and Insided!!! Way to go....

I'd guess that's much more of an issue with an automated filter, not a choice made by an individual at Sonos. But it is annoying.

Erm...an individual at Sonos chose Insided...

Pretty much a joke. Every morning there are dozens of spam posts, it's worse than ever now.

Yea, they start around 8PM Pacific, after the west coast team has left for the day, and before the EU team is up. My guess is (based on the posts) that they're from India, which would fit with the time frame. I do find it curious that they're spamming here, as I wouldn't think there's a lot of traffic from India that hits these boards. But it's hard to believe that they're targeting Kumar.... :)

My guess is they're paid on number of successful posts. But I'm not sure how you track that. I've never run a spamming organization, not sure how to measure success.

Nahh...they are after export markets:-). But keeping them out surely does not need a wall that needs a Trump to build it.

But I am definitely being targeted by Sonos with their random Insided powered shotgun. Another post just went into the black (red?!) hole of moderation. This is becoming a never ending story, Sonos, predating the start of this thread by more than a year.
