Meta post:

Hey, microblog folks! I’m the current owner of this magazine. I recently noticed that there has been a fair amount of spam on the microblog side recently. First off, I want to apologize for that. Second, I want to give a few explanations:

• I mainly read threads (I know, that isn’t a great excuse, but see my link later)
• I only recently realized that kbin filtered out 18+ posts by default, so any spam posts that marked themselves as NSFW were invisible to me
• There have been no unresolved user reports of spam for quite a while

So, I’m asking for your help in two ways to keep the magazine spam-free:
(1) Please report spam as you see it. I know it gets tiresome, especially as kbin.social in general has been overrun recently, but I do check those reports regularly, and I will delete any spam that you report.
(2) If there is anyone who wants to be a moderator, please see this previous thread: invitation to moderate . Basically, if you are an active kbin user who shows interest, I will gladly add you as mod.

I will check the microblog more actively from now on to delete spam, but both of the above would be a big help to me in keeping the magazine (both threads and microblog) spam-free.

Overall, this community has been very straightforward to moderate – no hate speech, flame wars, etc. Thank you all for that, and thanks for keeping this community active and vibrant!
