Hi Everyone,
I want to say thank you to all the volunteers for moderation. We now have 20+ moderators from all parts of the world who can clean up the spam quickly.
If you encounter spam. Please use the "flag offensive" button to notify the moderators. Moderators have a button which can block and account and delete all content from that user.
We are also working with the Askbot team on improving the moderation workflow adding rate limiting and implementing pre-moderating watched users.
Jack, I don't know if the ability to get emails about flags is possible at the moment. We'll look at adding that as a feature with the new workflow.
Tully
