Spambuster "brass knuckles" award winner is...

Just wanted to thank Running Coach for his tireless pursuit of livestreaming spammers. I swear he waits in ambush like a hungry cat waiting for a mouse. Good work Coach. I tried to beat you 2x today but I phaled. :frowning:

Meanwhile, I don’t remember, does the dope verify email addresses before allowing someone to post? If not, might that not solve part of the weekend spammer pranks.

burp

As far as I know, the signup still involves an email with a link to complete the registration.

^ You called?

Yeah, thanks. While I check for spammers regularly, almost always running coach has reported them before I’ve seen them.

Wouldn’t it be simpler and faster just to make running coach a moderator?

He could be our Special Moderator In Charge Of Spammers, All Forums.

ETA: Other mods get jackboots; this one gets brass knuckles.

Why, he didn’t do anything wrong?

More often than not he beats me to the punch. Did so just today!

I heard that running coach was the inspiration behind this guy.

Hah! I just beat him out on a spam thread in GD. Gotta run faster, coach!! :slight_smile:

“Yeah, but I used to report with this hand.”

Are you kidding? I get the reports and by the time I click on them Colibri has already banned the bastard.

He’s scary, man. Scary.

Hummingbirds are pretty fast, but engineer_comp_geek must be a precog. He bans them before they even post.

Hummingbirds are prettier, though.

So you got that going for you.

My image of Running Coach is that of a guy sitting on a motorcycle behind a large billboard, hand on throttle.

We appreciate your vigilance, RC.
mmm

My goal is to get at least one or two lines of a conversation before the Mods disappear the thread. running coach was able to reply to one of my jokes today. I took it as a sign, and bought a lottery ticket.
*no money was actually spent on lottery tickets

I beat running coach to one just a little while ago. It was the high point of my day.

For the record, I appreciate all of the jokes and funny comments in spam threads and post reports. It adds some entertainment to an otherwise mundane task.

I think coach is really Chuck Norris. Just saying.

Jonathan Chance, you think this bloodthirsty killer is pretty? Look at the bones!
