This will allow an easy method of contacting all moderators at one time.
- Users:
- If you spot what you believe to be a duplicate post, please post a link to it here. In addition, include a link to what is being duplicated.
- If you find a post you think belongs in a different forum, let us know.
- Avoid multiple reports of spam:
- If a user's posts are all spam, report the user, not the posts.
- Review this thread after submitting a report. Please delete your report if someone beat you to the punch.
- Any other post that you think requires moderation (violations of Guidelines, broken BBcode, etc.).
- Moderators:
- Please delete posts after you've addressed them.
Thanks in advance.

User: jackfrostenson
Reason: Looks kinda bot-ish to me
Looks like a spam magnet to me. I expect to see spam posts for properties in Turkey from new users any time now.
I've posted a warning. The banhammer is close by. -- Neddyseagoon.
Maybe I'm too wait and see in my old age.

User: soparla
Topic: How to manage multiple gentoo installations
Post: post 8808277
Reason: Technically there's nothing wrong with this one, but it hits uncanny valley for me. It is also a necro-bump by a long term (though not very active) member... Kinda feels like a stolen account, though I don't have any way to verify it.
Dunno, I guess just watch for now.
Under watching, thanks for the report -- fedeliallalinea |

User: rayded
Topic: epsxe cannot read virtual cd rom/mounted cd
Post: post 8820296
Reason: new user asking about gaming on windows.
At the very least wrong forum, possibly a spam placeholder
Thank you. One to watch. -- NeddySeagoon

User: risingfire1
Topic: why Gentoo sucks, and why it will ultimately die
Post: post 8835641
Reason: Could be either just a bored new user or a placeholder.
Actually, do you guys receive notifications when users edit their own posts?
Beside necro posting, but on topic, I do not see anything wrong here, yet. --Banana
[We have access to the forum's notification tools, but administrator privileges do not automatically sign us up for notifications on user changes. Thus, it's good for someone to actively set a watch on suspect content. Sometimes we do this on our own, but it never hurts to have observant users call out suspicious activity we might have missed. -Hu]

Topic: clang vs gcc
Post: post 8847781
Reason: We've been here (with other users, possibly, I don't remember who it was) wrt ChatGPT-style posts. Posting nonsense from them isn't good for the forums. It means people waste their time rebutting it when instead, people could ask earnest questions, or just do their own research. The quote in particular here from ChatGPT has a bunch of errors.
Locked. --pjp |
I'm well aware what the AI policy states, I agree with it 2.
It was only there because package list which benefit from clang build stack is hard to set.
I tried for a while before going GPT which was fair not to filter out.
Thus that list with a pinch of salt.
Sharing your knowledge could have been beneficial?
Anyhow it was and remains up to you.
Thks 4 ur attention, interest & support.

User: ak.plus.gold
Topic: Secure programming language discussion
Post: post 8847896
Reason: Somewhat suspicious. No mention of Gentoo, no nothing, straight into their "project" with very generic questions, no details whatsoever. Keep an eye.
I agree, under watching. Thanks for the report -- fedeliallalinea
Maybe my suspicion is not justified. There are responses from the user that seem to be genuine. --logrusx

User: mrbassie
Reason: post 8851388
That user is constantly looking for places to insert their trolling responses.
Thx. Already on the watch list. Since this post did not spark a direct conflict, it was left there. -- Banana
That's not the first or last time. This user is in my sight since early 2022 but it looks like this has been going on for years. I don't know what happens to the deleted posts, but if they are preserved in some way, look there. --logrusx
Yes and we do know the history. In this mentioned topic no bad result happened, nor futher comments from the mentioned user or any direct reations from others. We do unterstand that those kind of nonsense comments are annoying, but sometimes it is better to just ignore them and move on, like it has happend in the topic. We will always appreciate any reports for those.

User: CaptainBlood
Topic: NFS server/client install fails here...
Post: post 8852491
Reason: The thread should be moved to "personal blog" as the user is not looking for support.
Thx for the report. It started as a question and we do not have such a category. Will keep an eye on it. -- Banana |

Topic: new programming language
Reason: I don't see anything related to programing, portage or a support request but another one of those attempts to make others do something. That ain't gonna happen. If that dude wants something done, it's about time they get their hands dirty. This thread has no place in any of the support forums.
Please see my post in this thread. -- pietinger |

Reason: Good stuff. Should go to howtos, tips and tricks, so it doesn't fade into obscurity again.
Yes, good stuff. Moved to "Documentation, Tips & Tricks". Thanks for the report -- pietinger
