I've read these forums for a while but just now signed up, only so I could post this topic. There might be similar ones but the more there are, the more people will notice.
This forum is getting a serious troll problem. There's one in particular going around who's posted one topic with nothing in it but a picture. A very vulgar picture. Just to spare everyone else I won't describe it here. He's also replied to other topics a few times with just the same picture. And someone else posted an extremely racist thread.
My question is, where are the mods? Someone needs to be on the lookout for these kinds of people. I just want to read (and maybe add to, now that I've signed up) interesting discussions about Minecraft. These trolls are a blemish on an otherwise great community. If moderators aren't assigned to get rid of these people I'll just have to stop reading these forums altogether.
They Eat, Sleep, Drink, and Socialise. They'll be on, when they get on. We just have to wait for order to restore itself.

I would like to make reference to my own post on a similar discussion: here.
Not to hijack your topic or anything, but I would also like to express my interest in becoming a moderator, though I feel I have probably already compromised any opportunity of that (1 warning - silly really, I attempted to make a joke about a poor quality thread, but it backfired and my report of the post ended up resulting in my own warning).
Woo, kinda spamming the board with self-promoting posts. However, all relevant and I just wish to express my commitment to assisting/bringing awareness (to moderators) in any way possible.

I'm sure they do, but that's just why we need more mods. The more there are, the more chance someone will be on, and all we need is one mod to take the stuff off.

to the left of the quote button is the "flag for moderator" button.
I've flagged them all and I'm sure others have flagged them several times as well. Hopefully, as it's been about two days, they're gone now, but the problem still stands: there are too many trolls here.
We try to be on as much as possible, and we're discussing finding someone with high-quality posts who lives in the Asia timezones to cover for us, and I've even pulled a couple all-nighters in hopes of catching this guy.
But truth be told, right now, we just dont have enough manpower to catch this dude. He's even said he'll wait until no mods are on to begin his attacks.
We are doing our best against him though! :biggrin.gif:

You can't just ban the account?
Either way, it's good just to know you're working on it. Hopefully you'll find that new mod. Best of luck to you.

We're banning every account he makes. We havent performed an IPBan most likely because there'd be too much collateral.
