Privilege's being revoked this has to stop

11.1K followers

Just received some communication from one of our loved member Keishalina who has again been attached by some members for nothing wrong and had her privilege revoked by Admin.

This has to stop!

Why are you so pathetic in wanting to click the spam button for other members?

Don't you have any morals at all?

I am Positive I know of at least two who work very closely together in more ways than one

They seem to be a tenancy to compete with scamming the system here to keep your ranking up with here.

Posting and copying comments in almost every question, remark etc that others ask.

You may seem like you are helping others but in reality, you are just scamming the system to keep you at your current position I won't say where you know what I mean and so do many others.

Sure help others but allow others to help as well and not spam them so you look like the only one with knowledge and support. down the track.

You are not building trust only fakeness and Karma will bite you back big time.

Focus on your own websites, focus on helping others for the right reason and get your finger off that spam button as you are worst than the real spammers out there.

I would love to say more but I know if I did I too would get taken off

To the moron's especially two in particular two words xx off you are not needed here within this community and don't deserve the fake spotlight you are giving here.

We will investigate the culprits again of this ongoing "spam" complaints. We have removed several individuals entirely from WA for their behaviour, and we will be investigating the recent cases of this happening (it is far less than ever).

We also implements some hard limits, and we investigate cases as they come in. By the way, they now have their write access back.

That's really lovely to hear, Kyle

Kyle, thank you!!

This has been going on for far too long.
For those of us who work hard to do what is right, obey the WA rules and support authentically, it is indeed a bitter pill to swallow.

Looking forward,

Cassi

Hi Kyle
It's good to see you communicating here.
I know you take this seriously from previous PMs, and thank you for acting fast to reinstate access for an innocent victim.
:-)
Richard

Richard, it is good to have you back.

I am sorry that you had to experience that.

Cassi

Richard, were you write banned?

Thank you for promptly handling this situation. As a newbie, its comforting to see WA being made safe for all real time. I don't know the person who was being "bullied" but I for one have their back! And looks like its the general consensus. I found a home!
I pray that everyone in my new WA family has a great day!

Stephen

Hi Simone, fortunately not. But when certain others were "under attack" I raised concerns directly with WA management.
:-)
Richard

Good on you!
If we all stick together
This will have to stop!

Hi Cassi, thank you for caring! I haven't been anywhere. Sorry if my comment is ambiguous. I was looking out for others a while back when trolling was a feature.
:-)
Richard

Thank you Kyle since this thing is repeating itself in just less than a month ago.
Thanks for getting Keishalina out of jail. She has 489 posts all written in her sweet, inspiring. cheerful, uplifting, and delightful way.
We were all waiting for the month ago one to be over and looking forward to Keisha being free!

Did you investigate that one a month ago as well as to whether it had validity?
Which way did the scales of justice fall, so that
this is less likely to happen again?
Kyle, can you please limit the spam buttons to the ONE on your desk:
So that the spam button pusher has to first confront a real person, has some sort of vetting and responsibility, as well as an understanding of the effect on another person.

Now I know that you deal with all kinds of people, and just as in other families, some of them are in need of a psych evaluation.

But it is disturbing and difficult when we are feeling unsafe because a hypocrite is among us.
It is very damaging, and I'm sure that you are even more aware of this because WA platform is your vision.
And I thank you every time you add clarification, I thank you for WA,
Suzay

Hi Stephen ... thank you from me for that well put comment.
:-)
Richard

I know it is difficult to police but it is not great for WA

It is not great for WA and for those of us who hold to higher values and also promote WA.

Cassi

HERO because he rows to Kyles. Oh, that's great Richard, thanks!

Thank you Kyle for chiming in and your action taken both in the past and present.

Very much appreciated all you and Carson do for us.

I just hope that there can be a way to force anyone clicking that button to give a valid reason why they want to click the spam along with having their name seen and recorded by Admin not by members but by Admin

It would be great if any posts or comments along with the member attacked stay there until a physical decision by either you or Carson decides if the spam action is validated and warranted.

There is no need to take a post down if it doesn't break the rules as it is done now.
.
The last part would be for any members that are locked out to be told why this happened or at least get a warning first and have the availability to put their reasons first before any serious action is taken by you or Darson.

This would be a fair way of doing things rather than automatically revoking privileges and they don't always know why or especially the reason why.

if the post needs to be taken down due to the rules being broken fine but if it is the action.

I know that lots of different variables with all this but a new system needs to be put in place that is fair and reasonable to all

Thank you Kyle you know I do my best to let you know about issues others have had previously and you have always taken care of it and reinstated the members who are genuine.

Enjoy your day.

Andre

Agree Catherine hopefully they can put a new system in place as I have given some suggestions to Kyle earlier today here.

Enjoy your day as well.

Andre

he didn't but the point is he could have

Agreed.

Well said Les

Ahhhh . . . understood, Richard.

We all must look out for each other and protect the essence of what makes WA the engaging and successful community that it is.

Thank you as well.

Cassi

Thank you for such kind words Chuck. Appreciated... and I know that secretly you like to be called Chuckles!
:-)
Richard

Thank you Kyle :)!!!

I'm glad that you are on the case, Kyle!

Jeff

Thank you, Kyle and Carson!

Nice One Kyle, I had a similar case, last year with some offensive remarks made via site comments, which were reported, but in the end I just unfollowed the male individual concerned.

Easy PZ, Dave!

Jeff

I agree, Monica!

Jeff๐Ÿ˜Ž

Thank you, Kyle.
This has been very frustrating for some of us, and I'm very glad to see your reply.

Looking forward,

Rudy

Sorry Kyle, but your write ban policy has to completely change. It needs to be monitored by a human so good members are not punished needlessly.

I am tired of good members going silent or just leaving the platorm altogether.

I will NOT be renewing my membership in November because of this.

The community is great, but you are destroying it by your deleting blog posts and comments that do not violate WA rules but that you are embarassed by because they might make WA look bad perhaps to new people.

Then FIX the broken system.

How much money do you lose when good members who might have stayed a lifetime leave WA???

How much money do WA members lose when their referrals leave WA because of unjustified Write Bans???

Trying to make your platform look perfect only backfires on you, because regular members know it is anything but perfect.

Now you can delete this post if you wish!

Mel

I think that if you could write under different categories, then people could chose what categories to read and stay away from those that annoy them. That way everyone could have their say on whatever topic they wanted and no one would need to be banned.

Thanks, Kyle and Carson. I am happy to hear you are working on this, though I imagine you would prefer that it was not necessary. It goes against what you are trying to achieve.

I understand the reasons for the spam reporting system, and it should be straightforward and not require policing.

Sadly, that is not the case, too many have apparently abused the system for "gain?" I struggle with this.

What exactly are they gaining?

It makes no sense to me to spam someone just because you can.

Thank you for your efforts and also to Carson, for trying to keep the community together.

Alex

Just a newbie asking so please forgive my ignorance. Is there an "are you sure" prompt if someone accidentally hits the spam button? Or if this is a malicious act then I guess it wouldn't matter.
Thanks for your time.
Stephen

At this stage once you click spam it is sent I don't want to try it just in case there is

"I hope you do stay Mel you are a good member and don't want to see you leave because of a few upstarts, that is those who like to click buttons and think they are the ant's pants here regardless of their position here.

One of the reasons that I asked. I have poor eyesight and was thinking how easy it would be to accidentally hit it. I was asking as a precaution. I say this because I wouldn't want it to happen. From what I gathered of this situation, "accidentally" just doesn't sound appropriate.
Thanks everyone
Stephen

No problems I know you wouldn't do it for the sake of it as some of these have. Guess if you see those poker and gambling sites which happen regularly you can test it out on them. These people know what they are doing displaying the gambling and poker site and have no intention of learning about this platform.

What a ______ shame!
Appreciate you!
Stephen

Thanks Stephen appreciate your words and support just continue to follow and apply the training given and keep focusing on your website rankings here doesn't mean anything and there are no financial incentives either.

Even if there were no rankings you can still help other here

Take care enjoy your weekend coming up for me it is already Sat 11 am

Thank you for sound advice. Rankings are just a number. I'm a fan of people and love when they succeed!
Stephen

You are very welcome Stephen and yes great way to think and believe about.

I have never clicked the spam button - so I do not know if there is an "are you sure" question.

I appreciate the feedback.
Stephen

I agree, Andre!

thank my friend always appreciate your words and support in action

andre

You're very welcome, Andre! Thanks for this important post!

Jeff

Glad to be of some help and service for other good members

Andre :)

I am so glad that you are here, Andre!

Jeff

Thank you kind of you to say so. I do love Wa and all it teaches and we will always find some faults here and there.
Same as anywhere else but the more we can reduce the negatives the better the atmosphere we get to have while here.

I echo your sentiments, Andre!

Jeff

Much appreciated.

Andre

You're very welcome, Andre!

Jeff

thanks mate

Andre

Yup it was

Yes, indeed, Dave!

Always welcome, Andre!๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿบ

Appreciated Jeff ๐Ÿบ๐Ÿ˜Ž

That is a GREAT way to think, Stephen!

Jeff

Cheers, Andre!๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ

Well said, Mel! This will get fixed! Hang in there my friend!

Jeff๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘

I must be very pessimistic, because I don't see that happening after all these years. They just don't get it, Jeff.

Mel

True words, indeed!

Jeff

We can only hope, Mel!

Jeff

Thank You Kindly Kyle For Your Lovely Words.

How Is It Possible To Be Bullied In A Safe Haven?

Why Is This Behavior Allowed To Happen Repeatedly?

It Seems As If Some Affiliates Are Using The Platform For Their Devious Manipulations.

Don't Be Utterly Surprised When You Find Out Who and What They Are..

Until This Situation Is Handled, No One Is Safe.

In All Fairness, I Know That You And Carson Will Do What Is Right.

Take Care.

Maxine




Yes they will Maxine and have already taken care of some along the way

enjoy your week ahead and thanks for your comments always appreciated.

Andre

Featured Comment

Andre, on 3 occasions, I have written privately on this matter with the thinking that if addressed directly at the source, it would have more impact.

It continues, however, in spite of many members speaking out.

This is about 2 things:

1. process and,
2. manipulation.

#1, as Roy and others have said is an easy and quick fix.

#2 is harder to address as it speaks to morals, ethics and behaviours.
Personally, I use my personal power and CHOOSE to stay away from persons whose values are not aligned with mine.

We are all paying members in WA.
And some good money too!
USD 600 to 1,200 is not a little investment, especially in these times.

Keisha has been a Premium Member here since 2018 - over 3 years.
Add her membership fees and the VALUE of her quality time, support and contributions to the WA community and you are getting into the high 5-digit arena.

It is not acceptable at all.

Perhaps it is time for us to collectively come together and intervene.

Cassi

Thanks Cassi

Certainly is not acceptable with this type of behaviour that has been going on not just now but for years with other members and different groups.

I did a post a while ago with trolls in here on the same issue and even got attack by a super affiliate for the post.

Oddly enough this member has 11 instant likes from his comment within a couple of minutes and I know that 6 of the trolls that I called them were confirmed members who were constantly attacking others just like Keisha and other members we have been seeing now.

Ir is just a different group of people as I know some of them were banned as they already have been warned in the past for their behaviour.

They were all his referrals that is why they liked his comment b ut as usual never had the balls to state their case and oddly enough he never comments on my post or anywhere else.

So he was doing this most likely from his referrals asking him to try to influence this but it didn't work.

That is why I stay away from some members regardless if they are super affiliates or not. Some are great to learn from some well another story.

Thank you for your valuable input Cassi you are always appreciated.

And I do agree this needs to be fixed the sooner the better.

Andre

It is a very unfortunate situation, Andre.

Let us keep it on the front burner to achieve resolution.

Have a good day.

Cassi

Yes it is but hopefully this can finally be fixed so it doesn't happen to so many innocent members who have done nothing wrong as you also know of another awesome remember who had the same issue to them.
It is nearly 1 am so finishing up a couple of things then heading off to bed.
Might read Partha's latest bedtime story before I go.LOl
Enjoy the rest of your day. :)

Andre

I agree - 200% - Andre!

Have a good night and a peaceful rest.

Cassi

Couldnt agree more Cassi it is a stain on WA

Yes, it is!!
Not good at all.

Cassi

it has always happened The only thing that changes are the people that manipulate. None have elver lasted two years, but sadly they are always replace by another group

True I am surprised I last just over 7 years without a ban (touch wood LOL)
My last post got taken down people are asking if I took it off by you know the truth

Take care and thank you for your support and help here and elsewhere you are one of the most appreciated ones to be part of.

I agree Cassi, this is not the WA I joined, though I will not leave, just wait for some sort of corrective measures to take place as I have had two already!

Andre, so glad you spoke your heart out. This same thing happened to me with a member when I reached the top 10 in the ambassador's rank. That same person kicked me out of her profile without me doing anything.

This is all about keeping a position and defend it at any cost, but to me this is not competition, I think is pure jealousy. I feel very bad for Keisha because she's someone with a pure heart. People that are viciously pressing the SPAM button are mean.

Hopefully Kyle will look into this. I appreciate your comments.

Thanks Eugene sorry it happened to you and yes I agree this is more of jealousy and competition to keep those hear them at bay from losing their so called status which doesn't mean anything anyway.
it has to be said once and for all also the other post which I saw your comment got taken down and wasn't deleted by mem as I still have access to reading it on my profile just others who has contacted me shortly they couldn't see it anymore.

The main thing as I said Kyle knows the names I gave him and Keisha is back

As Brenda asked, โ€œAndre, your other post about the ban again got removed so did you remove that? I could not open it. Sorry that happened.โ€ I was also wondering that.

On a separate point, I struggle with clinical depression and anxiety. When I got banned it was so demoralizing to me that I stopped writing my blog, writing answers to questions here and affected my personal life as well.

These people doing this probably think itโ€™s funny but they are straight up bullies and donโ€™t give a crap what they do to others or how it affects them.

I agree with the comment about those hitting the spam button should have to give a REASON for doing so right when they push the button. Let them state which rule has been broken.

Love that idea and I am so sorry you have been had that unfortuante experience

No I didn't delete it I can see it on my profile and read what was already stated it was taken down by powers to be
At least keish has been restored that is the main thing.

Take care

***SURPRISE!***

Besides Carson, Kyle and Jay, the only ones I recognize in the Ambassador Brigade are Nathaniell, VitalityG and yourself. The last time I wrote on here was a question pushing up to two years ago. I have a very high ranking on here at the time of this writing - 14,012. It's the best ('er, the hightest) I have ever had!

My heyday on here was the first three years on here though at that time, I was having some personal issues. Back in the day when the Ambassador Line-up was only 10, including Carson, Kyle and sometimes Jay (I outranked him for awhile!) I was an Ambassador (if that was what they were called back then) for about 230 days.

I enjoyed that! It gave me confidence I never had on a forum. Wealthy Affiliate was the first place I ever found where I was able to write on a forum! I was a total flop everywhere else, being called an idiot and so forth on the secular public forums of the time!

I love to write. I still write to this day. My Journal reaches back to the autumn of 1973 when I first began doing that in diary books. Almost my entire life is in writing!

Then, here, yes even HERE at Wealthy Affiliate came a bully! I do not think he is here anymore in fact, long, long gone - to the best of my knowledge. My heyday came to a virtual end at this point at the culmination of who was going to be the King of the Mountain!

With this bully and his minions, I was conspired upon. A trap was laid for me and a pit was dug on the primitive chatter where at the time, I spent a considerable amount of my time. Chatboxes were not something I was ever able to master - until i came to Wealthy Affiliate!

But it happened! I fell into the trap and uttered words those laying in wait were silently standing by for. Suddenly it were as though the lights went out! I noticed a change to the appearance of the chatbox and WHAM! I was no longer able to write there nor in anyplace in my WASpace! I was done! However many fingers it took to push that Report Spam Button was enacted! It was a dark period of my history! It wasn't even for spam nor was I being libelous in any way! All I said was "Affilorama!" That did it!

I have not written on here for a long time. I am still here - just hidden except for these rare times.

I think it is so sad that this bickering about ranking and the kind of bullying that I experienced in my time nearly ten years ago still goes on! It is so sad there are people on here that are continuing to game the system and so far, there has not been any kind of algorithm effective enough to pin these problems down!

All I can say is to Keishalina:

I have no idea who you are, but you will be taken care of. I was. Ten days into the loss of my write privileges, I was re-instated and the love of being able to share on here (as well as help sometimes as well,) resumed.

Your perpetrators will be forced out of the bushes where they are hiding and you will be here long after they are gone! Bank on that because the owners are on to them as I write this!

Andre, thanks for this blog post. Thanks to you, Kyle's attention has been garnered and Keishalina will have her privileges back if she doesn't already!

I had others trying to police my writing on here and determine that I was doing this solely to maintain my rank on here. At one point, I had enough of it! I stopped writing and went the way other members do on here - remain at WA but in the background where I cannot be seen.

I stopped writing on my website back in 2018. I am shocked that I still get income from it! Income from the Internet was never a reality for me until I joined here the first day of 2010 after saving enough money to maintain the monthly $29/mo payments! I would have joined earlier if I had the funds since I found this place in 2008 and pored over its sales website back then longing to join! It's a writer's HEAVEN! The community on here has actually helped me sort a lot of personal problems out in my life, not to mention become a much better writer!

I've seen a lot of negative stuff about Wealthy Affiliate but as for me - I've never seen the phenomenal lykes of anything like this platform. It's a one-of-a-kind and always has been, even when it was a simple keyword list site. Even then, it outdid every one of its kind by a longshot!

Hi Daniel
I followed you recently, without knowing any of this history. Thanks for joining in here today.
:-)
Richard

Thank you for doing that :-) I need to look over there to see what's happening. I'm a little behind the 8-ball at this point.

Well, I guess "crown" doesn't mean "Ambassador." Is the heart "Intermediate" now?

There used to be Junior, Intermediate, Advanced in the Forum but that went with the Forum.

I have returned favour!

Daniel

Hi Daniel
Crown means Premium Plus member.
Heart means Premium ... nothing to do with the ranking.

Personally, I don't care about the ranking. I do what I can to help others when I can and when I have something useful to say. This means I move up and down like a yoyo.

Thanks for the follow back. Whether you stick around for a while or not, it's nice to meet you.
:-)
Richard

Those designations had nothing to do with ranking either. It was how much you wrote in the Forum. When you reached so many words BOOM! You reached Intermediate. Reached another wordcount, Advanced. That's all there was to that. It never had anything to do with ranking but just like now, how much you write does affect ranking and this is how abusing the system still occurs.

Wow! That's a whole another level I didn't even know existed on here and quite a bit more expensive! Nope, I don't need that right now and will just sport the purple heart, LOL!

I was always like you - helped when I could but sometimes wrote when I thought I had something to say!

You are right - it was like a yoyo only sometimes, the string on mine would get twisted and tangled up!

Daniel

Amazing and helpful story. Thanks for sharing it! You didn't even say a bad word, and I have said spambassadors.
It's safe to come out now, Daniel, make some new friends, and some new money.
Suzay

Hey Daniel

yes, I too remember those 10 Ambassadors we had I remember Boomergp08 from the number 3 spot which was a great feeling than actually went to 3 twice before all the changes occurred in having 25 Ambassadors.

Glad you are still with us and yes know the feeling of having wonderful members attached for no reason other than spitefulness etc.

The main thing now is first Keisha is back and a stronger presence about this hopefully has brought Kyle to the point this spam button needs to be revised and changes.

I have already given Kyle some ideas but that is up to Kyle and Carson to make any changes.

also Glad that Kyle has taken action against some I know of in the past and will look into this current situation.

Enjoy the rest of your week and let's just keep moving forward along our journey online.

Take care

Andre

Thank you for speaking out from a position of experience. You have a unique perspective on this and im sorry you had to go through it. I hope to read more from you!

Stephen

Thanks Suzay,

I might write on here a little more often but it will never be as it was in prior times. I am involved in some pretty extensive studies at this point and have had some life-changing experiences. I did just go for another year with my website and plan on continuing with WA.

I used to do a lot of chatting but can't do that near as much as I used to. There's just too much going on that doesn't allow for that.

...and no...

I try not to say bad words. That too is a colossal waste of energy and I am only getting older and need to reserve my resources!

Daniel

They've tried for years to combat these issues. There's just not a whole lot that can be done since the human element is so dynamic and innovative. There's just some things algorithm can't replace nor automate and I think that is true with the spam button. One would think a keyword system behind it would suffice but that's likely more complicated than it looks at face value.

If evil-doers want to bad enough, they will get in and it can only be as it has always been - deal with it when it happens. It doesn't make this platform any less efficient or ugly-looking. It just is what it is and some things can only be dealt with on the human level no matter how badly we want to place the robots there to do the work.

I had the uncanny experience to come on here during my first year and find myself in the #1 position but that did not last long, perhaps for a few hours when I my doubt proved right and found myself booted from there. It surely had my hopes up! I've seen some pretty goofy things on the earlier versions of this platform when some things didn't work very stellar, ha! the time I found my website with woman's apparel styling when something happened to the servers! You might remember the team trying to get the affected websites back together and somehow things got very mixed up!

You confused me for a bit but I know you meant "attacked." LOL!

I'm glad to hear things for Keisha worked out! I thought this would be fairly quick. As it was for me, it was 10 days until I figured out I could still communicate with Kyle through the sales website! Not sure if it's the same now but back then, you lost your write privileges, this included Private Messaging as well!

Daniel

Hey Stephen,

Yeah, it happened but fortunately that was the only time. I was going through a lot of stuff in my personal life as well. That too is long gone!

Thanks!

Daniel

I'm glad you're above it and I can say as a newbie it was amazing watching it get rectified so fast. I am using it as a learning experience.
Stay safe my friend
Stephen

The platform is far, far more efficient than it has ever been and of course, consider the community as well.

Keep safe yourself. I live like a cloistered monk so I never caught the virus and now I have had the vaccination, so I'm good to go!

Daniel

I'm glad you're safe. I am continuously amazed by the amount of considerate, helpful and interesting people here. It fantastic when a community comes together to protect each other. At the very least I got to see justice dispensed on behalf of an innocent helpful person!

Stephen

As it is readily seen, some not so nice people do come into WA - that is bound to happen, but the vast majority of what you have just described is the order. WA does draw in mostly moral, sound and outright down-to-earth folks. It has always been this way.

You often hear it said that the so-called lack of control here makes things look ugly and wanting, that it is embarrassing and makes WA look bad, but I say it also makes WA shine and here's why...

More often than not, the undesirables do not hang around very long and disappear. You will notice that people here are generally proud of WA and have keen eyes that quickly spot folks that come in here bent on doing mischief.

This unique character of the community here is what I would best describe as WA's "white blood cells" that reach and purifies every part of the system non-stop, and this works far better than any algorithmic mechanism that could be put in place to do that work.

Incidentally, the way this platform is built is no accident and is what it is through careful discretion from both the owners and the community alike. Other platforms come and they go, but WA continues to lead the industry being as wildly successful as ever for itself and its members since it began in 2005.

You likely haven't heard of the WA Forum that was here. The famous stand-alone venue had posts on it that went all the way back to WA's beginnings starting on September 7th (or 9th, I forget which now, but 1 day before or after my birthday) 2005. The posts back then are remarkably just like today's! I would that Kyle & Carson restore the old Forum, not as a functional writing platform but as an exhibit - like Pompeii and Herculaneum - an interesting place to explore, because it was literally filled to the brimstone with success stories and WA history from its very beginning!

Daniel

Very well put, Daniel, and interesting ideas too! Thank you.
:-)
Richard

Well said, Daniel! It is a pleasure to know you!

Jeff

Just to let you know Jeff as others have already asked my last post just made got taken down by the powers to be others have been asking me if I deleted it which I didn't it still appears on my profile and I can read that response I already have but it seems others can't see the post hence they think I may have deleted but it was taken down
Just so you know

Is this the "It Happened Again..." title? Just saw that and went to open it.

Daniel.

Thanks Jeff!

Daniel

Yes its not there, so it got taken down. Sorry that happened. It does not appear on your profile blog, its gone. Strange eh, we got a lot of weird science behind all this.

You're very welcome, Daniel!

Jeff

I didn't think you took it down, Andre! It was gaining too much traction too fast!

Jeff

True I would never take such a post down. But what is done is done

I must say it was a pleasure to read your posts (yes, I suppose I am blowing smoke), but hearing from someone who has been in WA for a long time and who has seen virtually the same thing before is interesting.

It would seem that it is not as easy to fix this as we would hope. It would appear that a "quick" fix is impossible.

Since posts are integrated into the platform and the spam button is there for a reason (nobody wants to be solicited here) it must be more complicated than it seems.

I suppose Kyle and Carson hoped that it would resolve itself and not need a permanent fix. It no doubt costs a lot to repair a system that has been in place for such a long time. I hope they can resolve it.

Overall, the percentage of people it affects must be

I say apt analogy.
Thank you
Stephen

Sadly, yes! How unfortunate!

Jeff

Yes it is but no use worrying about it we just continue to go forward and help others where we can the right way.
Enjoy your weekend coming up
Andre

You are so right, Andre!

Jeff

Thank you Jeff one for the road or two as usual. ๐Ÿป๐Ÿป

Andre

I totally agree, Alex!

Jeff

Two sounds good, Andre!

Jeff๐Ÿบ๐Ÿบ

yep been a while since we share a drink or two together.LOL

Andre

The technology has changed big time, the looks of the platform has been modernized many times over. Things have been revamped, added, taken away and vastly improved but the one thing that has remained constant is the community. It has gotten exponentially larger but in this one regard, WA is still the same old place! It has the same old problems and the same old charm.

It's been a long time since I've been on here and I've been enjoying this. It is like old tim

Wow! I dropped the mouse and lost my place here!

This thread had gotten so large, I actually got lost and couldn't find this place for about two minutes! It IS way past my bedtime! You're so right - there are a LOT of comments on here! In a week, if this keeps going, Andre will have his own forum right here!

It is a lot easier to get around the platform these days. When I first came here, this was like a house of mirrors! The common complaint about Wealthy Affiliate was people getting lost on it! There were more than single ways to get anywhere on here and that had people going in circles!

This is when it was called "Wealthy Affiliate University." I kinda miss that platform once I found my way around it. In many ways, it still has the same architecture but is far better organized.

I found it quite helpful to come on here and take part in this. The work I'm doing now gets tedious and it was nice to step back from it and come over here. If I hadn't seen the title of this blog, I wouldn't be here now! This is a very unusual place on the Internet - unique is a better term. I knew way back then, when I pored through http://WealthyAffiliate.com longing to join that this place was very different in so many positive ways, but I never dreampt I'd still be here this long - and there are others on here who have been here longer than myself!

Well, I saw your comment earlier and wanted to return, so here it is and I'm going to go lie down now!

Nity-nite...

Forum LOL Good night Daniel sleep well

It's disheartening to hear cases like this.
When a spam case is reported, there should be a warning and investigation, not just a random button and then push.
You're spammy.
Why would anyone stay idle just waiting around to push the button???
I guess this issue needs rapt attention.
Thanks for bringing it to light.

Some people has issues and use that to attack others at the moment it is all done behind other's back and are too gutless to confront the person first.

They tend to hide behind the spam button instead of thinking they won't be seen or know

Things will change for the better of all good members we have here.
