How to Report a Spammer

would it be spamming if you were to ask someone to check out your youtube channel if you have something related to a topic as long as you're not trying to sell something?
 
Thanks for the heads up Hugh!

Up till now I've just sung the Monty Python's song at the top of my voice in the hope someone would hear me ('Spam SPAM spam spam! SPAM SPAM spam spam!...)
 
I just wanted to say the mods are doing a great job at taking care of Spammers and people who just are looking to create trouble and I really appreciate it. Thank you so much and you for keeping this clean as best as you can and I think everybody appreciates it! Have a nice day.
 
Hi Guys!
I'm using this old thread (I didn't even know it existed) to ask you a general question:
Did you guys notice a recent activity in reviving old threads (e.g. from 2005!) without any particular pattern - just for the sake of doing it?
Is this something we've already seen before or not? I hope not but when Wikipedia is quoted as a source I feel...nervous.
Cheers to all of you!
I hope I'm wrong.

Without being paranoid (I'm actually quite the opposite) I want to post something I wrote in October 2018 (you can find the original post here, #1112: CAPTURED AIRCRAFT - ODD PHOTOS):

For the most of us, being born in the 50s, 60s, 70s or even later (or earlier) the "philosophy" of trolling is not understandable. At all. The troll does not care for what is right or wrong, he doesn't care about knowledge, mistakes, anachronisms, logic or time lines (when in a historical surrounding). He feeds on our reactions, responses and especially on our anger. The more angrier you become, the more satisfied is the troll. He might have a competition with his soul mates (we never know this!) to make a forum angry or even to destroy it. I've seen the "death" of a very nice, small forum, kind of a "boys' club" by a troll. The members were so devoted to teach him history of aviation, that they started attacking each other. The troll was doing like he takes one or another site, "politely" apologizing to everybody on the top of the page and cursing the same person 2 posts later. You can recognize a troll by his erratic behavior, opening threads every other day or re-opening "dead" and old ones, posting copy-pasted photos, stolen quotes or his own writings from some other place, not asking for anything serious, but creating an avalanche of mostly useless information and by doing so, irritating the normal users, who cannot "catch up".....
Guys, friends, do not feed the troll. You just make him stronger!

More than a year later, do you see any similarities with somebody's behavior?
