Can we have some moderators?
Since 'we' now run the forum, please can we have some elected moderators or some such thing, to delete the fucking spam bots etc?
Not looking to have censorship police or anything like. Just have a few regulars to clean out the junk, etc.

I think he's saying some others to share the load, Rich. It wasn't indecipherable 
Re: Can we have some moderators?
I have just given Rich a 15min cool-down lock-out Ravvi - for being a bit cheeky.

I’d volunteer but who would want to give me any sort of control

That sleep deprivation is really getting to him, I think.
Edit - Rich, that is. God only knows what Dinny can blame it on.

Absolutely not. As person who can't even moderate the shite he posts himself, I'm the fucking last person you should have as a moderator!

I can confirm that I would abuse any power given to me with hilarious results.
Matty, is there a search and replace option that will allow me to change every instance of the phrase 'lease' to 'vape'?

Unfortunately, PhpBB is a target for spammers so it's pretty much inevitable now this site is being crawled by Google and other search engines.
Easiest option is to turn on manual authentication of accounts, and as the board is quiet it's probably the simplest.

Seriously, Matty sorted it within a few hours - why do we need more Mattys?

Indeed - let's all submit to this benevolent dictatorship. I don't think the forum is ready for a democratic uprising.Rich B wrote: Mon May 14, 2018 5:16 pm Seriously, Matty sorted it within a few hours - why do we need more Mattys?
