I mean, yeah, it was obvious spam but it fit all the criteria for posting:

  1. Photos

  2. Credit for the photographer

Is there a policy for removing spam sitewide? Just wondering because, you know... I mod the sub.

We've had a few ideas for basically this scenario. Like say this was a friend of yours and you told them to go make an account and post to your sub. Well, then I just messed up big time.

It's come up a few times on how to handle it, from reported post queues with additional mod voting for restoring or just moving it to a s/spam sub. We could probably resurrect all the old (non-illegal) spam into the spam sub too. The more I hear about the google stuff the less I like manually cleaning this stuff and the more I want a more transparent community process. Right now the admin dashboard shows us if admins do something. We basically just call out each other in the site chat if we have an issue with it. We're kinda small now, but we'll need a better process for sure as we grow.

Aye, and at some point, you're going to rub a mod the wrong way then there's going to be someone complaining about admin censorship and blah blah blah.

It's a good enough system for now, I just didn't know what was going on.
