    Hmm. Not sure if the moderator team's views on this have changed in that time. I can't imagine why spam shouldn't be reported anyway...

    Yeah, I also don't understand. I dunno, there might be limits on how much users you can report per day. But thing is, you are reporting users that violates site rules so I guess the rule for moderating users forover-reporting spammers should be removed.

    Basically if you make too many reports in a period of time you get auto added to a list for possible abuse of the system, which then gets looked at and you get moderated if it looks like you are..iirc I got moderated (a good 5 years ago like) for so-called abuse of it after reporting like 5-6 posts that were explicitly considered as report worthy spam in the ToU at the time, and I've barely reported things at all since then, basically only the rather extreme rule breaking posts and posts by new accounts purely made to advertise.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting..
    Time takes it all whether you want it to or not, time takes it all.
    Time bares it away, and in the end there is only darkness.
    Sometimes we find others in that darkness, and sometimes we lose them there again.
    None can hope to convey the life-sensation of any given epoch of one's existence -
    that which makes its truth, its meaning - its subtle and penetrating essence.
    It is impossible. We live, as we dream - alone.
    The real meaning of enlightenment is to gaze with undimmed eyes on all darkness..

    Things have changed a lot since then though... I certainly hope reporting actual spam, even if it is seen as reporting too much, isn't considered moderation-worthy now, since the way you and others reported actual spam and got moderated for it would just encourage others to report only some of the spam they see and not all of it in case they get moderated for it, which is sending a mixed message to users really.

    I think it also makes a user "Oh, I don't wanna report things now" because there is a tendency that they will also get moderated for abuse or something.

    Changing the EMS won't do a thing.

    • Open save game editor and then go to the "Raw" tab.
    • Then go to "Squad" > "Player" > "Gawassets" > "Collections" and click on the "..." button.
    • Change the values of the IDs according to your wishes

    Use this to determine which number represents which asset.

    I'll give it a shot.

    If it won't change anything, then why is EMS changeable at all in that program?

    Maybe we can think of a good post to add to Michael's thread on this, so it goes back to the top of the board?
