The real problem with phishing posts may also be the spam that the sub will eventually receive, phishing emails have been sent in a wave to various mails of potential players, let us say like 10% of these have a reddit OSRS Accounts, they will want to warn everyone else of their attempt and so there'll be many articles looking the same, all of which may be oblivious it has been posted before. It can eventually find dull. Which in turn can lead other people to ignore a fictitious clueless player who's asking whether it is true or not, that's why I suggested an automatic response of some type, at least a little warning to take caution or something like that. Additionally thanks for clarifying the email to forward phishing mails is now over, I understood of the forum thread, but not the fact that they discontinued the email.

I'm unsure that sums up the planned message. My previous comment explains why these two changes have not been made together with some information that is related. We're open to suggestions that could be possible to implement without detracting from the purpose of this subreddit and its community.

I mean, yeah your previous comment lays out just why the communities tips, in your view, are inferior to the system you have in place currently. If anything the opinion represented by the OP are more in line with the'vision' of the subreddit (needing to include both RS3 and OSRS (which in itself is absurd being they've seperate content, dev teams etc. but like my opinion man)) by stating your content has a house here but if its seeing anything in specificity to go elsewhere, similar to the way the Reddit FC is/was run.

So rather than tuning ity'all yanked it? Tell me again how your team thinks your system is not fine compared to community suggestions. I have obtained a email that I believe to be a phishing attempt, I must sift through the wiki, email'email speech that when I sort could get me banned for submitting a phishing link', get an answer that says"this email was stopped", return to the wiki to discover you have to report it on the forums, then login to runescape but not about the phishing attempt tab, then return back to the homepage not the forum sub-topic you asked, conduct the login temple of despair again, find the sub-topic, then the article and report the scam.

Rather than requesting a community of 234,037 people and using a bot hit your inbox near instantly together:"If you believe you have received a phishing effort please verify sender address (example), domain (example), here are the usual examples (hyperlink ). In case you have received an attempt please report it at (helpful navigation to get to forum post."

In regard to our system"working fine as is," we are aware that it's not ideal, but there isn't always a solution that fulfills issues from all perspectives. Additionally, there are different issues taking up our time, and we're just volunteers, thus we do not always have the time to devote to address a number of those smaller problems. My previous remarks were meant to explain why the problem stands as it currently does for the specific issues mentioned, not explain why things will not change.

The vast majority of users see the subreddits as being independent anyway ( runescape = RS3 and 2007 runescape = Buy Old School RS Gold), so this isn't something we've needed to tackle prominently because the quantity of OSRS-related submissions here is minimal. 1 complication with article filtering is it can't be assumed users will always use criteria in a place that will trip a filter since this isn't necessarily the case. AutoModerator filters based on particular standards, so building an accurate list that's only specific to what you are attempting to capture is not always possible.
