New Inappropriate Content Category for "Irrelevant Links"
I have been noticing more and more posts on the forums where spammers are trying to make fairly relevant posts, but put spammy links in them. Could we have a way to flag a post for moderator attention because it has spammy links that need to be removed? If the mods could just get rid of the links, the post would be fine.
On the other hand, I'm not certain we would want those users around anyway since they are still spammers.
For example, take a look at jasonbaker and Karengilliam on this thread. Also, every comment on this story thread. I think that they are just trying to use the forum to post the links, but they are trying to do it in such a way that they look like legitmate users. If they get flagged with this new "spammy links", and a moderator removes the links, the system could send them a warning email or something.
Would it be possible to implement something like this? Does anyone have any better ideas?
