Triton Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Think someone in Korea was just a little too excited to show us their new project. That's it guys. Edit: And they're definitely a HAIFer cause they knew to target Going Up! .... I for damn sure wouldn't have noticed if this campaign was posted in "Meanwhile, in the Rest of the World..." For anyone wondering, most of the latest project news starts on page 14 now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cloud713 Posted August 3, 2016 Share Posted August 3, 2016 Holy cow. I was wondering why Nole was spamming all the threads with some comment about bumping to get ahead of the spam. Now I see the real mess.. What the heck? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not so much sipping daquiris as lumbering across the desert in a smelly Greyhound bus with no internet access. It looks like the mods managed to get it under control without me, but I'll take a look and see if there's any hidden damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

H-TownChris2 Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Woow, instead of coming on HAIF excited to see something new or updates, I come on here to find 16 pages filled with spam...that's a shame, never thought something like this would've happened to HAIF...

Subdude Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I couldn't find the thread about this. Anyway, most of the Korean bot-spam should be deleted or unviewable now. Sorry for the inconvenience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Urbannizer Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 Still there for mods, just highlighted in red now. Trashed a few pages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subdude Posted August 4, 2016 Share Posted August 4, 2016 I tried running one of the posts through Google translate and the only thing that popped out was links about online gambling. And there I was hoping they were messages to us from the Dear Leader. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyson Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 I'm glad to see that the problem has been addressed. Reading through this thread, I was beginning to think that we were about to be over-thrown by the bots. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kbates2 Posted November 2, 2016 Share Posted November 2, 2016 About 1/4 of the current posts are about Houston development or architecture. May not be bot spam but the board is getting pretty spammy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoustonMidtown Posted November 8, 2016 Share Posted November 8, 2016 What are the "job requirements" for moderators ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HAIF Posted November 10, 2016 Share Posted November 10, 2016 It is not a job so there are no specific requirements, in general your access level goes up and you can make content decisions yourself. The Forum is provided for the community so we want the community to drive decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFootsSocks Posted March 2, 2017 Share Posted March 2, 2017 @HAIF.cares The site is completely unusable on mobile. I'm getting redirects to adds on every page. Home, Going Up, this forum. Anything to fix that asap? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HAIF Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 Thank goodness the site isn't unstable on mobile. I could not recreate that one. I have noted distaste those two users. They are both sanctioned but very limited in scope. Good news, the number of articles from the Katy News site is too high, with too many unrelated. Expect it to be removed until they get their RSS feed in check and that probably won't happen because I already asked several times. That's most of the ones I've heard complaints on so I think it will help in your situation. We were looking for growth for that area in our user base and it did help with the news posts, we got a lot of new users from the area, however, the original RSS feed was much more limited and they keep pushing more and more.

It's always done this here and there for awhile now but this week it has kicked it up an unbearable notch, having to reload the website 3-4 times in a row because of the same redirecting advert.
