FriendFeed Spam Report

I usually report here first since it's easy and then report with the TOS abuse form http://friendfeed.com/about... if it seems that nobody's currently paying attention here. - Chris Heath

true, but it was never official - and they still do clean up from here, and within seconds some times... you just have to catch them when they're doing it - they're not on friendfeed 100% of the time anymore, that's all - Chris Heath

I post here, then send a link to my post through the contact form. That way I can screenshot the offense. - Jason Huebel

spammed again. what are we group admin supposed to do? keep on "unsubscribing" those spammers over and over and over again? locking the group? because that's all I can do, there is no ban or anything else and they keep subscribing back. - alieb

Allowing admins to block spammers from groups would be a nice addition. It's gotten to where there are so many surveycheese spammers that it would be even better to automatically remove anyone that posts that URL. - Greg Guitarbuster

Also here: http://friendfeed.com/lavorat... - Jason Huebel

i actually came to report that same user spamming http://friendfeed.com/funny-p... that thread - Chris Heath

and here: http://friendfeed.com/funny-p... - Chris Heath

I saw it as well. http://friendfeed.com/erotica2 - Christopher Harley

Removed, thanks - Bret Taylor

You're the man, Bret! - Christopher Harley

see tyson... they are just as hard core about the spam as in the past - so your doubts were unfounded - Chris Heath

tyson... also see here: http://friendfeed.com/friendf... apparently this is not an official spam reporting mechanism (while it is effective) the proper form page can be found here if you're interested http://friendfeed.com/about... - Chris Heath

Now *you're* the man, Chris. - Christopher Harley

... I don't get it ... - Chris Heath

Sure but they use the group for spam reports as you can see. :-) - Kol Tregaskes

this group is a better way to report spammers. we can see the result ("gone, thanks" comments) thanks to the moderators - Hakan İyice

Kol, I wouldn't be surprised if there was some level of disagreement between them. :) Bret seems to respond well here but Ana and Dan both said to use the form. *shrug* - Rochelle

bump for clarity... i never knew this ... - Chris Heath

We still monitor it, but we have been working with Facebook support/operations to answer our official contact forms at http://friendfeed.com/about.... Facebook has a fantastic operations team responding to that form now, so it is reliable. Ex-FF employees still monitor this room actively though, so feel free to use it - we like to kill spam as quickly as possible :) - Bret Taylor
