SE, you can do better than this (Regarding Spam)

No. It was a suggestion to adopt a method that's already proven it works. No one who posted suggested going to an outside source to solve their problems. In this thread, at least.

In which the poster showed a cropped image from an external program that works in resolving this on PC. That was the issue. The very mention of a working, illegitimate option is enough grounds to remove the post.

I've been dodging any direct examples of the RMT spam messages themselves for precisely this reason.


Which is an issue in and of itself. Showing images of the actual spam inadvertently advertises the gil-selling we despise, but not doing so doesn't allow us to fully convey the invasiveness of it.

But if it is cropped and shows absolutely nothing that can link back to any site, is it really advertising? It was cropped to show an example and even all the RMT website words that were on the exclusion list were cropped out. There was nothing actually wrong with the posts, just heavy hands at work again.
