I think that the spam on games is getting alittle to much and is annoying because i sometimes like to sift throguh comments to see what the games like and u guyses oppinions.

I would like to find a way to flag spam, and or get rid of putting comments and putting a random game rating for ap.

Double post isn't by default spam. His was okay. (still, remember everything in a post please. It might not be spam, but it's annoying)

We all want them gone. It's simply that. There is no method of doing so to the extent needed. Mods have lives, so we have to deal with it.

I'm being completely serious here, have you tried the little red flag to your right?

An easy way would be to get rid of comment AP.

I do not think so Kyouzou.

There really isn't much you yourself can do aside from flagging and reporting. Just be on the lookout for any excessive spamming.

Yes, Graham that works well.

How are you able to see if someone rated a game randomly?

XD

How to see if someone rating a game randomly... Well, if they have a rating count close to their comment count, but that never really works. If you see their rating count go up really fast, congratz, you caught a cheater and obviously have no life for having time to watch that happen. Basically, if they are in the top 10 monthly, they are doing something wrong XD

Or it means they're active which is a rarity on this site.
Like when my brother FryLock joined, he had 3,000 AP his first two weeks because he rated 500 games and was striking up conversations with a lot of people; but that didn't last long, because in the 11 months after that, he only gained 7,000 more.

You can't PLAY 500 games in two weeks. Even if you don't sleep or ever leave the site. You have to play a game for more than 10 minutes (exceptions like Elephant Rave XD (elephant rave ftw)) to rate it or you are officially a cheap, spammy noob.

psst, you moderators should ban FryLock > >

Actually playing 500 games in 2 weeks would take 6 hours per day, minus load times. Your math fails

Hey, I'm not saying that he didn't spam. There are a lot of people I've seen that have been posting spam comments on games and demonstrating that they actually have never even played it. I'm just saying that your math is off. The reason I double checked it is because I've played and rated about 300 games in the past 2 weeks (yes I have no life) so I wanted a ball park estimate on how much time I've personally spent playing flash games. The conclusion: I need to go to the bar more and spend less time online

No implications please.

FryLock isn't too bad. If you ban him, you ought to ban everyone worse than he is.
