Spammer loose in AppDB -> Sketchup

Post by rhills »

Hi all,

Over the past week there have been a number of Comments posted to the AppDB -> Sketchup area that are clearly Spam.

Tonight there were 3 in quick succession (eg in version 5.x and 6.x, I can't find the other one now as I've deleted the notification email).

I couldn't find any easy way of reporting these from the AppDB website, am I missing something or is this functionality not there? I don't get huge amounts of Spam from AppDB, but I believe I've received more Spam than legitimate comments over the past few months.

I think it would be good if there was a way of reporting Spam (and spammers) in AppDB.

Cheers,

Report it to the maintainer. Maintainers are listed on every version page and their names are email links. If the maintainer doesn't respond, report it here.

FYI, I've deleted the spam comments from Sketchup and warned the maintainer.
