Staff thread. Ask. Suggest. Get info.

I've confirmed answers before. Now it just says ''Loading, hold on...''

@IJustWannaJerkOff

You have to be at Level 5 or higher to confirm answers, even on the questions you ask, apparently.

For some reason, I can't confirm answers as correct on my own questions..the button just won't work

@WorldsBestPorn

I know this, but even though I unfollow, I keep getting notifications from here and it's annoying.

@ifailedprek

Make sure "auto-follow when commenting" isn't checked in your settings. If it is, then you automatically follow everything you comment in, whether you want to or not.

CAN I PLEASE STOP GETTING NOTIFICATIONS FROM THIS POST. I'm not even following it.

What's the line with true amateurs/one and dones when a name is asked for à la GDP/MomPOV? It's just I've got a lot of confirmed answers which haven't been marked correct but also quite a few that have, so I was just wondering where the distinction lay.

Also, I've got numerous properly tagged answers (plus videos when required), with multiple confirms that have been deleted from the confirm thread without having been marked as correct (see my mega post in the 'keeping track of answers' thread) and I'm not sure why.

Any info would be much appreciated, thanks.

@Don

Yeah, the spam filter is definitely on the fritz. I posted a link FROM THIS SITE to answer a question and even THAT was auto-marked as spam O_O

Our automatic spam filter is causing the issue, for some reason. It will be fixed shortly. Thank you guys, for notifying us.

@lurker
Came to say the same and it seems to work.

Workaround: Try making a post without link. Then edit the post and paste the link.

@NinNin

Thanks, I'll try flagging.

This site is awesome, it's totally perfect!

@lurker I often flag posts with dead links. If the post is removed, one is awarded 10 points.

I think there should be the option to mark/flag post for removal - lots of old questions are dead links to videos. There is no chance to answer them.

gr8 fucking idea m8

You could require login, then have a "Post Anonymously"
checkbox. That would allow someone to post something they were embarrassed about, or didn't want to be associated to them, but it would still allow the admins to take action if the post was Flagged for SPAM or some other reason. Not that it's hard for a spammer to create extra email accounts, and use those to make free accounts here.

@alejandrometh

It's about time we ended the use of anon accounts on this site for this exact reason. It literally takes about 30 seconds to make an account, so I still have no clue why people even use them OTHER than to spam.

@Operator

Could anybody stop this guy? anon_5du0Bn93bgBcw. He's been spamming and adding clic bait links in several posts. It's rather annoying and distracting from getting a real answer.

@Operator

More spammers, in addition to innumerable poor quality and one-off anon posts, should yet again make the case for requiring users to register. And, as has been said before, a tutorial on how to format answers should be a part of registering. I'm confident that I'm not the only one who's frustrated at the sheer number of answers that aren't formatted.
