[META] Can we limit Dark Galaxy Gaming’s paid game spam?

Any given day I check this forum, there’s 8-10 posts by this user asking for $15 per game and bumping their posts.  Can we add some kind of spam spam filter or at least a way for us to filter this forum so I don’t have to see their ads all the time?

Probably not the forum to post this in. Also, as long as they're following the rules I don't see any reason to do such a thing. You might want to consider doing the same.

There was a similar (more general) question a while ago: <a href="https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7824894/restrictions-on-lfg-spam/?pageforid=7824894#post-7824894" rel="nofollow">https://app.roll20.net/forum/post/7824894/restrictions-on-lfg-spam/?pageforid=7824894#post-7824894</a> (it got an answer from the roll20-team)

Agreed this would be better discussed elsewhere, but I think it is worth the discussion.&nbsp; Perhaps the "Block" feature could be expanded.&nbsp; When you block a user's account, they can't send you PMs and the tooltip says something about it "graying out" their posts (I've tried to test it, but I don't see a difference on Chrome.) Being able to block specific prolific posters would certainly be advantageous. -Adam

Well, about the rules: "Refrain from "bumping" posts (i.e. replying to a thread solely to bring it to the top and providing no new information)" That is in the rules bumping for bumping sake is frowned upon. But welcome to roll20. Where you pay for a sub or spend enough money in there shop you can almost do anything you want. For example: "Do not attempt to solicit users-- through private message or a post in a seeker's thread-- if they have not explicitly stated an interest in your paid game" Which they do all the time and get away with because of sub or purchases. All I can say is learn to deal with it because wont go away as long as roll20 acts this way.

Stuff like this is why a lot more recruiting for Roll20 games is done on Reddit (/lfg and /lfg_europe) than on here. Regardless of your stance on paid games, the only spam you see there is people somewhat desperate for a game, which I'll take any day of the week over bloody advertisements for a product I don't care for.

And the two shall not meet. Roll20 needs to do same.
