--- Comment #1 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net 2012-10-14 17:11:10 CDT --- Thanks for pointing out the spam post; I have deleted it.
I suspect the AppDB is going to become a more attractive target for spammers now that we can effectively keep them out of the forum. AppDB admins need comment moderation tools like the forum has, including the ability to ban spammers.

--- Comment #3 from Joel k00_fol@k.kth.se 2013-04-05 03:04:05 CDT --- I've found a few posts that say something like "Thanks for [application name or random word]. I really like it. [blog-looking url that leads to deleted blog] at [link to the blog service] I strongly suspect this is a spam because the user really made an effort to include the links, and the fact that the blog was deleted.
Could we put some easy guidelines to the users and also for reference when moderating? I'd like something that doesn't require us to check urls/blogs whatever. I might have agreed to something when I created it but I could not find it now (and I'm not making a new account just to find out).
I suggest something like: *Post only comments relevant to the execution (running) of this application *Do not include irrelevant URLs, or advertisements.

--- Comment #4 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net 2013-04-05 08:21:06 CDT --- Moderators are free to add notes about what is appropriate to post, but spammers are not going to be stopped by that. They know they're spamming. They want to spam. The problem is that AppDB admins do not have the ability to ban accounts. We can delete spam when we find it, but cannot stop anyone from repeatedly posting it.

We used to though, but the link doesn't work anymore...

--- Comment #7 from Jeremy Newman jnewman@codeweavers.com --- As a first step, I am going to integrate the http://www.stopforumspam.com/ blacklist into the AppDB. This check will happen each time a post is submitted, if the IP or e-mail on the account is listed, the post will be denied.
After that I'll add some post limits in for new accounts. If your account is new, and you have < X posts (say 5), you are limited to 1 post a day. Once you hit 5 posts, you can freely post. Spammers will then at least have to wait 5 days with 5 posts until they can flood us.
Then, perhaps we can add some 'flag as spam' buttons for logged in users. So users can flag posts, and the admins can more easily clean them up.

Just to verify, that couldn't easily be used on bugzilla, could it?

--- Comment #9 from Rob Hills rhills@medimorphosis.com.au --- I've noticed this problem growing over the past few months. I would like to see at least a link that enables me to flag a comment as Spam to alert the administrators.
Ideally maintainers could be given the ability to moderate such flagged comments to reduce the workload on the system admin(s).

--- Comment #10 from Rosanne DiMesio dimesio@earthlink.net --- Maintainers already have the ability to delete spam; that's a key part of their responsibilities. Unfortunately, not all maintainers are doing their jobs.
If you see spam, first report it to the maintainer, and if he/she doesn't respond in a reasonable amount of time, report it on https://forum.winehq.org/viewforum.php?f=11.
