    I really hate spam - annoying and wasting everyone's, including their own time.

    We've just added a few things that we'd appreciate our community users' help when notice spam:

    1) Each bookmark now has a "Flag as spam" button
    2) User - "Flag as spammer"
    3) A spam control link under the footer of every single page:

    -----
    "Report Abuse & Junk"
    -----

    It is important that the Diigo environment is properly maintained. For
    this, we'd really need the help of all Diigo users:

    If you see any spam, graffiti or simply useless junk, please report them
    by clicking that link and reporting the URL / any comment you wish
    (optional)

    In particular, we would like to set a high standard for a public sticky
    note: unless it adds something informative and substantive to the
    associated webpage, it is considered junk and may be removed.

    We will continue monitoring and rolling out tighter spam /junk control
    measures. If you have suggestions, please kindly share them here.

    Thanks for your active support. Together, let's make Diigo a really
    awesome place for all to enjoy!

    Spam control is essential. These are good features.
  • Maggie Tsai
     
    Again, like to re-iterate, if you notice any spam, please kindly flag them as spam bookmark or spammer.

    Diigo reserves the right to delete any abuse / user account that we deem as spam. Each group admin / moderator also has the right to determine what to delete and who to ban from the group.

    What about someone withing a group not displaying links that fall into the category?
    How can you flag them?
  • Maggie Tsai
     
    If you notice any abuse in a group, please inform the group creator / administrator - he/ she has the right to ban the user, or assign moderator right to any of the group members.

    When V3 is introduced, we will make the communication among members even easier.

    Of course, if there is any issue, please don't hesitate to inform us at info at diigo dot com. We'll continue taking lots of measures - along with all our members' help, we want to make Diigo a meaningful platform where all community members can benefit from quality collective wisdom knowledge sharing.

    (Ignoring http://groups.diigo.com/group/Diigo_HQ/content/956274 and other more recent discussions of electronic spam … this topic seems to be the original …)

    With a preference to receive immediate notification of posts to this group,
    and occasionally moderating … 

    … since the introduction of the freemium model for Diigo, I see
    far fewer spammy and accidental posts to this group.
    Delightful :-)

    Is that decrease coincidental?

    Or were parts of the September 2010 reorganisations specially designed to reduce the problem of spam?
