Are the images in these spam posts NSFW? Since I'm in a crowded classroom I can't really check (I saw one for a split second and it seemed questionable so I blocked images on the review queues for now)
 
uh yes
 
Don't scroll down to the bottom of that question right now
 
^
 
or just scroll slowly and downvote as soon as the button appears
 
I've got images disabled for now

They weren't just NSFW, but also contained cp.
so yeah
 
oh yikes, maybe worth reporting to imgur too?
 
bruh
 
@RydwolfPrograms I supposed you don't have the links?
 
@Jacob Oh, make sure to spam flag, don't just downvote
Six spam flags insta-nukes a post even without mods (and also downvotes automatically)
 
I don't see any spam
 
3:44 PM
@mathcat cause it was nuked
 
@mathcat Nope, but I could go back look at the deleted post histories if they haven't been moderator'd yet
Got em
Not sure what to actually do with them tho lol, I might just leave the imgur IDs in a mod flag
 
If I had a nickel for every time somebody put NSFW images on a website related to CGCC, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
(link is SFW)
 
@RydwolfPrograms i did yeah
 
that's weird, did NPSP not post the spam?
 
They were answers
 
3:48 PM
hm
 
@Ginger right I remember that lol
 
@mathcat How certain are you that it was that? Could be worth reporting to NCMEC, not that they could do much but IIRC they control the hash lists that are used for detecting that stuff on file sharing/hosting sites
 
very certain
They were definitely < 18, probably not even teenagers.
 
Would it be fine for me to move this to another room? I'd rather be able to keep this tab open in class but I kinda can't with the current topic :p
 
yeah, but where to?
the sandbox?
 
3:58 PM
I'd do the bakery if it wasn't read-only for non-ROs
TNH maybe
 
@RydwolfPrograms plus it'd pollute our cakes
@RydwolfPrograms it's frozen
 
@cairdcoinheringaahing Could you unfreeze The Nineteenth House?

Is there a conversation ongoing that we want to continue? If it's just talking about spam I can just throw them into the trash and mass-delete.
 
I guess there probably isn't much else to discuss
If the images are still on imgur when I get home I'll take care of reporting it to them and possibly NCMEC's online tip line
 
:/
can't believe we had to deal with this
 
4:06 PM
I'm gonna go ahead and bakery this, if anyone has any more to discuss regarding it feel free to restart the conversation here or in another room

Okay I sent the links and a thorough description of what occured to NCMEC
(CC @Bella_Blue)
(This room's usually just used as a move target for spam, so I don't think anyone noticed your message earlier, sorry!)
I'm going to try to get in contact with Imgur
I've sent an email to Imgur's abuse/support addresses
No clue if it'll get paid attention to but hopefully I hear something back
 
11:16 PM
Seems they've been removed from Imgur
