    I think I remember this suggestion from a while back, Im not sure. I think it got buried But I think this forum feature should be added. I think a forum upgrade would be better but that probably wont occur at this stage.
    I think we need to have the option to report players from their profiles. Currently we can only report a post they make to report the player. However reporting a player from the profile helps if the person hasn't made any content but needs to be banned eg: alts and spambots who have registered and have spam links on their profile. This way mods can ban the account before they make threads and cause trouble. Its the best we can do with the influx of spam bots we get on the server until the solution for the bots are in play.
    Well thanks for reading,
    peace

    We cannot report a player from their profile page. We can only report posts

    Cyp (or was that crew) said once the forums are how he wants them and won't be updated .-.
    I think that still stands?
    I thought it was an add on not a built in feature with an update.
    I guess sooner or later the forums will be too outdated.

    The features are available on the update? I'm not exactly sure what important features are not available on the update.

    I have talked to Cyp about it and he would like it if I could upgrade the addons and forums but its ultimately crews decision if I can. Also Cyp said he would talk to crew about letting me update some server plugins.

    Yeah I just spam mods walls now with spambot and possible spam but accounts. Reporting makes life easier. I hope crew agrees to an update.

    Yeah, you can warn on a player's profile, but you guys can't report.
    I would like this to be added, but its not a huge inconvenience to me.

    Never used to bother me either. I used to check for spam bot accounts and ban them before they post.

    Just write "." or whatever on their profile and report that saying "spam bot"
    It takes 3 clicks.
