Threads older than a year are automatically closed and need a moderation review on new posts (or are just simply closed, fuck it).

PLEASE.

What about automatically removing trash threads from the recent forum posts list?

In most (if not all) cases reading such threads is pointless and by removing them threads of more interest could be shown.
Why should a good thread at the bottom of the list disappear just because a new trash thread arrived?

Instead of implementing this as a mandatory filter for all users it could also end up as a setting at the list or in the user's settings so everyone could decide whether or not to pay attention to trolls or idiots.

And it wouldn't affect the purpose of the list; it would still show the recent activities in the forum.

Maybe that decreases the amount of trash threads created every month as well by lowering the visibility of them. It's at least worth a try

@user -tony316-: Not worth the effort. I'd agree if we had 15 new threads every day. We don't. The only reason we are getting more trashed threads now is because a few users are reviving threads needlessly.

Automatically ignore the user if they spam symbols like @@@.

@user sonkii: The website already has a sophisticated system to automatically prevent postings that contain such stuff. e.g.: You can't even write a letter many times in a row. Do you see that a lot? I think it's not a problem at all.

To avoid that f*cking message, I suggest this code, I don't know if it's work properly.
1
str_replace("@@","",$msg)
something like that.

Oh, wow. I totally didn't know about that. Apparently the protection doesn't work for some special characters.

And maybe I should keep an eye on PM spam. I wasn't aware that such things are going on here (because I don't see the PMs of others unless I check them manually in the database which I normally never do because of privacy protection etc). I'll try to improve the protections to prevent that stuff in future.

@user Baloon: Nah, I'll just disallow sending if these patterns are found. I won't auto-fix spam messages. That would only make it easier for people who spam.

You can always put a small button called "Report" on forums/file archive/PM's in order to report an incorrect behaivor from a specific user to Moderators/Administrators.
