How is that not a thing yet? Why did I not think of that myself! I really wish reputation was used more and that sounds like a solution. I am just getting so fed up with spammers and beggars and people who can’t even spend secs to read before posting. I even try to reason with them, offer my help if they are not understanding. More times than not it ends with me downvoting their spam for that blog, and then I move on. I only do that in very select places here since I feel I know the blogs author enough, and we both have an understand in my actions.
Is there any solution at this time to even remotely try and deal with these people? I have not spent much time researching on the matter as I would much rather be a builder than a destroyer. However, I’m starting to notice these people more and more. They just seem so unchecked. It’s like they enjoy taking away instead of adding to things using their spam.
I can't see any way it's a successful model, but there's a constant stream of newcomers who assume it's the best path to success.
We need a filter.
Thanks @mattclarke, I will check it out!
