Re: [pygame] Spam on Tutorials page

[B W <stabbingfinger@xxxxxxxxx>]

Nuke and ban some accounts. Like "Steve", who put hairstylesx back after I corrected freesound.org links. (I sure am glad I found that link, though. I now have a new hairstyle *and* some cool new sounds! =)) Seriously, nuke the bastard.

I don't recall how easy it was to sign up. Maybe there's an opportunity for something less bot-friendly.

Nobody wants to be saddled with policing content, da Gumm included. Especially if nothing is being done to control the abuses. I don't claim that nothing is being done, because I honestly don't know. I'm just content to fix em as I find em. But it seems a pointless exercise when my fixes are broken the next day. Somehow abuses need to be policed; and culprits should be tooorn into itsy bitsy PIECES and buuuried aliiive. (And a free Freeze Dried Frog Paste to the first person who gets that last reference. :))

Hi,

I've taken the task since some days ago to clean link spam from the tutorials page in pygame.org. Sadly, this is a losing battle, it's only a few hours before some guys adds the same links as always. And some of them don't even bother to edit the site, but rather revert to their spammy version. Is there any way to semi-protect this page and have someone curate this page?

Ciro.
