Super Mario Bros. X Forums

Why do Moderators keep removing stories? They just removed one by some guy with a random name! They think it is spam, but it is actually a story. I started reading into it and koopris (I think, it is said in Koopris talk (again, no offense)) is trying to tell us Japanese stories translated to english. Why delete them?

They are, even if it is a story, not necessary here especially for being extremely offtopic to the specific forums.

Moderators could at least move them to fanfiction. They are just being disrespectful to the stories.

They are useless anyway since they also even have links to them that is mostly a possibility to avoid them completly.

Just out of curiosity, I clicked one link. It is one of the stories too. Also, you say they are useless? No, my fanfiction is useless. Someone actually took the time to write these, and they get deleted. That is rude. If it was koopris I hope he saw my request for advertisement of my forum

Why are you unhappy that a mod is doing his job? If the material was removed, then it's fairly obvious that it was infringing the rules.

you can't be serious right now, can you?

hah...

First of all, this belongs in SMBX.org, not SMBX General.

Anyways, these types of posts are definitely spam. The users who post them are bots designed for spamming that have been automatically registering themselves for the last month or so now (notice their usernames - they're either a series of random characters or a vaguely Anglo-Saxon name followed by a nonsensical "last name").

Even if the posts were meaningful, they would still be removed. As the forum rules mention, this is an English only forum, so the stories would need to be written in English in order to keep existing. Also, as I said, they're created by bots.

Koopris is the same person as TheAlex99, a known troll (we acquired strong evidence for this based on his IP at NSMBX on a tip from reghrhre), who I guess is associated with the spammers. This wouldn't surprise me. Also, he was banned on this forum already, so any further accounts he uses are considered sock puppets and banned on sight.

Also, the stories are filled with links that are probably malware/advertising of some sort, both of which are obviously prohibited.

I'm going to lock this as well, since there's no way the spam posts aren't going to be removed. Feel free to PM me if you need any further clarification, I'm always up from a chat (seriously!).
