    I have noticed that this forum gets more of its share with spam posts.Does Zidoo have people looking into this.

    I already submitted the problem in another post.
    YES this forum is getting more and more stupid spams. They are annoying for sure. I report them, but they keep coming. It's more like putting a bandaid on a wound.
    Is there a definitive solution to get rid off them once and for all. I don't know.
    Modos, any updates on this nuisance here would be welcome.

    well. my last post on that topic still applies, i was the one that deleted the spam every day, but i had to quit, sorry about that, but as much as i wanted to help you guys, deleting spam by hand is not the way i want to spend my life. fell free to pm @spring @mirror @freeroc , if they get enough pm maybe they will invest some time in fixing this

    A way to avoid SPAM is by initially granting new users read only after some them time they are enabled write rights.

    captcha on registration, confirmation email, captcha on login, on first posts, DNS block lists/ip check , there are allot of tools at admin disposal

    So when are they going to start to implement these tools to stop these stupid spams?

    Once again the SPAM postings on this forum are getting out of hands. Now you have at least 8 spams per page everywhere. With all these spams, I come to this forum less and less, it was great before, you could read posts about different people experience, problems with their Zidoo boxes, now it's a nightmare. Where is/are the admin(s) here? Can they do something about it, or are we going to get more bombarded by these F...ing spams all the time. Just deleting,the spams one by one everyday is not the solution, and it's also time consuming for the one(s) who is/are doing it. It's time that Zidoo,/admin do something really serious about it, and not just conveniently keep ignoring it.

    Obviously to sell useless shit. Most of the spams are for Viagra, health benefits...
    There were gone for awhile, something must have been done by the admins, but lately they keep reappearing.

    Give me five minutes I could get rid of all it it! How long does it take to delete a thread? Seconds?
    An admin's access should allow multiple thread deletes with one click after those threads are chosen if the web software is written correctly. :rolleyes:

    I reported it here ('contact us' at the bottom of the page) and directly to Zidoo thru their web site. I did have two e-mail responses from them, but that was over a week ago and no change.
    I also use the 'Report' function to flag many of these threads which includes this joker that asks a single question, starting a separate thread, some being duplicate threads!

    You shouldn't have to deal with it. Apparently the Chinese don't give a shit as long as they can still pedal their wares.
    I did send messages to those three address you provided.

    Time to send Dictator Trump over there to straighten things out!

    As SPAMS are allowed here and almost nothing is done here to eradicate them for good, so does swearing. When the FUCK Zidoo team is going to FUCKING move their FUCKING ass and FUCKING do something about these FUCKING spams on this FUCKING forum. Do we need to make ourselves more FUCKING clear. It's about FUCKING time to FUCKING do something about these FUCKING spams that FUCKING pollute this forum.

    yah. some of them did back in the day, but they are not present anymore. Seems all the good people disappeared, i wander why. But again, i'm happy of my x10 and x9s setup and playback, so can't complain much about that. My next HTPC will be home built tho... to hard to have a good communication with Chinese companies those days :)

    I offered many times to fix this problem for them. They just don't care,

    Why can't you just delete the posts/threads?
    Isn't it a (simple) click with admin privileges? Same goes for the bogus (so called) member account?

    because they are hudres a day and they don't pay me enough to delete spam by hand in 2019, when the fix is 3 settings, with admin power. i don't have that.
    You only see the spam that goes through the filter, filter that i help set up in the first place. but i see it all. it's bad
