Unless this becomes a PAID subscription only site, then it'll be expensive for OKTs/runners to continue to create new IDs. I'm sure boss will be happy for it to be paid only, but I think too many others will not want it.
So status quo? I'm open to suggestions, eg I can routinely delete any new posters (say anyone under moderation, under 50 posts etc) but that disadvantages genuine newbie cheongsters. I believe Javabeans is far more discerning and will not link any FRs that are suspicious. If this thread doesn't exist, JB would have a much tougher job of going through all the OKT posted ads, so having this thread is good for him too.
I guess, use your own big head when reading FRs. Trust those bros here who are regulars. Maybe we can compile a list of regulars that can be trusted?  |
This fake FR/MR issue is even worse in GL forum. Their moderator, Comm, even suggested some mechanisms to decide suspicious/disputed FRs. But in the end, none of the suggested methods are viable. Therefore, everything is status quo over there.
Closing this thread does not help also. Fake MRs will still be posted to each individual OKT thread. And we will lose the platform for info sharing. For me, I will definitely not consolidate the MRs from the advertisement threads. Too much efforts to go through them and the threads will be deleted once the girl RTC.
So, for the moment, my sentiment is also use your own big head when reading FRs.
