Thanks ayushpant.
ayushpant is a good member and I knew he didn't mean any harm in what he was doing. There are times when some of our members make mistakes, and we understand that. But there are people who don't care what they do. Those are the people we are concerned about.
Yes, we do deal with our share of spam. But the good thing is that most members don't think that 5 Star has a spam problem. That is because every possible effort is made to keep it under control so that most members see very little or any spam.
People want to have others visit their sites and/or blogs, buy their products or use their services.
Many people will get the word out doing things the way they should. There are others who will try to do it with obvious spam. Some will spam but try to keep it from looking like spam.
A very big problem is with the sneaky people who will try all types of tricks in order to get their words out to people. I don't want to even mention some of the tricks because I don't want to give anyone any ideas. I know most of you wouldn't try them and there are some people who already know some of them. But there are some people would might want to see if they could get away with them.
Not only do we need to deal with real people who sometimes try to get away with whatever they can, we must also deal with software that is being used by some to try to do their dirty work.
These problems are not unique to 5 Star. Most communities face the same problems and have their ways to deal with them. Some do a better job than others. I think we do a very good job of it here at 5 Star.
There is a lot that goes on behind the scene that most of you aren't aware of in order to try to maintain the high quality of 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums.
I read every word of every post that is made here and I've had private message conversations with many of the members. This helps me to better understand our members. Our members are a fine group of people.
A big thanks goes to ayushpant and all of our 5 Star members who are good members and do everything they can to do the right thing.
This isn't a perfect world, so some people aren't like that. Some of what we do in order to be able to effectively deal with them also ends up affecting our good members.
5 Star has members and visitors around the world who are in different time zones. We want people to have a good experience in what they see posted no matter what time of day or night they happen to visit.
As 5 Star grows so do the problems. We deal with the problems. Sometimes this involves changing rules or having new rules to deal with new problems.
We don't want 5 Star Affiliate Marketing Forums to be so restrictive that you can't enjoy being a 5 Star member. We want this to continue being a friendly and helpful community and I know that is what our members also want.
