People like these who spam our forum should not be allowed here!

Our prayers have been answered!!! The gods of carwale have provided a mechanism to report bad posts - the triangle icon before the "Quote" button.

Dear Paddleshifter-You are most welcome to put your reviews and my comment was not to create any kind of divide between the owners and non owners.I only wanted the car lovers to discuss whatever they want to post and to avoid only the car manufacturers agents who use this forum for advt purposes.But what point i take from centaur is even then they have to discuss good points about the car only and no otherway.I think all our genuine car lovers are mature enough to catch who are genuine and who are not

Rightly said. I've seen some of these posts(atleast appear to be) in the "comments" below User reviews.

I didn't intend to question your intention here as it might have appeared from my post. My sincere apologies.

You have been on this forum since long and intend to maintain the quality of this forum. I'm relatively just a kid.

@PaddleShifter -Thanks for your kind words.I didnt take your earlier post otherwise also.

But i beleive there is no junior  here.all are good kind people who loves cars

I was scared to see the discussion getting little off track and am glad to see things back on track. Everyone knows that both of you, Priyadarshi and Paddleshifter, are extremely genuine guys. Centaur is unquestionably good too. So please let the "good" show go on

Actually there is a reason to be happy. More spammers means more popular carwale is getting!

My, my! Quite a love-fest going on here! Color me impressed!

Love to read posts like this. Keep it up, guys!

@Shaheen, More spammers also means mods getting lazy! 

@Krishna Sir- lol. Saw your post while posting here.

Dear MODS, sorry for posting in an old thread again. Is it possible to set up a filter for some words that are explicit, offensive?

Our forum saw that Emma Watson episode recently. I think we should set up a filter that automatically deletes the whole post where it catches some offensive word at the time of posting of the thread/post.

I am from medical side so have no knowledge about website management and softwares. I hope I do not sound stupid.

Well, I had a word with Banwari about spammers embedding obscene images using the insert image button (or the html editor) of the post edit box. As it stands now, images can be embedded with any URL - so the image can be hosted on some third-rate site but the browser will happily download and display it. This is risky as many people access this forum from office and you know what will happen if anyone opens a thread containing posts with such linked images - if the person's boss sees it OR  it sets the firewalls/anti-virus ringing if either that site is banned or the image contains any malware embedded in it. Either ways the user's gonna get into trouble!

I did suggest that inserting images be disallowed for the moment - till there is a mechanism to only allow users to insert images after first uploading them in their profiles. Plus a mechanism to not show images directly within the post - but have a link that says "Image not displayed for security/privacy purpose. Click to view" and when the user clicks this, the image opens in a pop-up.

I trust Banwari must have discussed these points with the dev team...and hope that we'll see some changes - don't know when though as these things are not a simple cut-paste job and will need some time to do. Banwari - any updates in this regard?
