The last two posts are a perfect examples of "Obvious Spam Posts".

Don't you think so, Martin?

I think THIS is obvious spam because Martin locked the 1st thread by this OP. https://www.chess.com/forum/view/help-support/okkie-chess-com-you-have-messed-up-big-time-now

I think you need a little more context for it, did you read the first post for this thread? https://www.chess.com/forum/view/help-support/someone-better-reopen-her-account-right-now

Yes I did. It has nothing to do with the site. Did YOU read the 1st thread about this? A young boy is angry that his girlfriend is gone. Its been 2 months, so I don't think its her....I think its HIM.

I didn't mean to be rude by the way, sorry if I did come off as condescending. But yeah, it's definitely frustrating that her account can't be reopened, but I think making such a fuss about it publicly isn't necessary. I mean, just one thread simply asking for help would've been enough...

It might be and is very likely his alt account trying to catfish. But I don't think we should jump to conclusions.

Can we start muting users that bump 14-year-old threads for no reason but to be a pest and users that continuously post spam threads?

It doesn't let me post even though I haven't posted in a while it always says to not post forums that frequently when I havent posted in months

You'll get that if you post a lot in quick succession, regardless of you hadn't posted anything for a while before a new flurry of posts.
