How does a regular post get tagged as Spam?

If they've got a beef with someone, then they should have the nerve and decency to reply, rather then lie.

They can kiss my Spam!

Since there is no button to report posts that are not allowed, such as posts that tell "the guy whose dog-ate-his password" how to hack into his laptop, and how to remove that very sticky metal property tag from his laptop, then some people here just report those as spam to alert the admin.

It's happened to me, as I've given out links to a very good website with a bootable CD that works everytime ;>

they are clear violations of the acceptable use agreement.

Working IT professionals do not give scumbags the tools they need to break into someone elses systems.

When you give out such help, then you are as big of a problem to working professionals as the actual thieves because you are enabling them.

Our job is to protect company assets, not help scum break into it. The next time it could be one of your systems that is being broken into.

I find that if they are to lazy to spend 10 min on google 9thats what it took me to find, and download several working tools) then I probalby could not walk them through USEING the tool, but I can see how Robo is thinking. Benefit of the doubt and all...

if there are questions or answers for cracking into a system/website/email, soliciting, or foul material some of us will report it as spam to have it pulled.

There is a site moderator, so if it was inappropriately marked, likely it would not have been pulled. If it was pulled, it is because of inappropriate behaviour.

I think most of the regulars have had posts pulled before. But now a new thing has popped up where the entire thread gets the boot, if the original content was bad.

Best advice, is if you are looking to break into a system, bypass network policy, or the like, dont ask here.
