Stopping spam, bots and trolls with your help.
Quote from myBullion on September 10, 2025, 2:09 pmG'day everyone,
Having just launched the forum its great to see polite conversations taking place. For the most part this will be the norm, but we all know that more heated, and potentially rude or insulting comments will be made. This comes with the territory, and most of us are tolerant of that to a point.
This is where your vote or 'reaction' can actually help mitigate the more inappropriate & nasty stuff. A script has been implemented that scans the forum, and when certain downvoted post thresholds are met, the following occurs:
3 downvotes - the post is hidden behind the letter 'X'. Users can still click to reveal the content.
6 downvotes - The post is hidden completely, visible only to moderators for review.
(Limits will adjust as the community grows.)
This puts content moderation largely in the hands of members. Share your feedback below, or feel free to downvote this post if you disagree 😝
