#15 true but there are people who join and are new and don't know about all this so this is to inform them as well as a reminder

Trolls are very annoying and must be stopped. This thread is dedicated to reducing the amount of trolls and bots who are advertising here and also reducing spam threads. Trolls can be identified if they're being rude on purpose or breaking any c.c rules. A solution to this is to block and report them. Spam threads are also increasing reducing otfs quality. We must tell new people who join to not make any spam threads and ignore spam threads as much as we can. Please contribute by telling more solutions on this thread to make OTF a better place.
