Post subject: Shexpat Spammers - What's the Deal?

Dear Shexpat,

Is one able to do as they please on this site? Benson salon is just flaming anoying. Post after post of garbage and lies. Why do you put up with such posting?

Benson are NOT advertisers. They don't pay for anything.

Their usernames just keep getting banned, and they just start again. It's obviously the same person, and Shanghaiexpat has the ability to ban IP addresses, so i don't understand why they don't do that.

Because they all post from different IPs.. some even post from multiple IPs that might be same IPs as other regular members. Most users IPs are dynamic so we actually might end up banning someone in the same neighborhood.

hmm sienna.. don't know what we did to deserve that.

Read the revolt thread for more info.

How about replacing the keyword "Benson" with something else?

You already do it with mods, bullfeces etc.

If they can't use the name of the salon, there's no point in spamming any more
