"Report this post" not working ?

Post#1 by burdi01 » 11 Jan 2017, 09:25

I wanted to report http://forum.porteus.org/viewtopic.php? ... 883#p52049 as spam, but all I get is a blank page with this URL http://forum.porteus.org/report.php?f=53&p=52049 ...

Was trying to get second opinion if this was deliberate spam, or just someone trying to provide information. :unknown:

yep, i'm not sure it has ever worked....something to be fixed..
in the meantime, feel free(anybody) to pm a moderator if you see any spamlike behavior...
@Bogomips, this second opinion thinks that it does indeed, display the hallmarks of spam:
first post
old topic
vaguely relevent
odd phrasing
link to a comercial service

Oh it's SPAM. Looking to increase their ranking on the search engines.

I tweaked the URLs last night to be just comments and today they are working again which means someone made them functional again. The OP? Or a mod?
