MODERATING

Are ALL discussions checked by a moderator?

I've seen 3 posts now of people asking for money & I don't appreciate it. I understand everyone goes through financial issues, a lot of my depression is based around financial issues but I wouldn't dream of asking people on here to give me money. This isn't the site for that, start a gofund me page or something if it's that serious. Many people on here are very kind & I don't wish for anyone to take advantage of that. 

 

I did reply to the last message asking for money from a guy from India, just to see how far it would go before it being moderated. 

I agree it’s wrong to ask on this forum 

Whoever it was would probably of happily taken your money if you were to send it. I'm not sure if it's a scam or genuine but either way this isn't the place. Hopefully moderators will pick up on this x

I agree. Xx if the ppl are depessed due to finances i get that but the forum is for helping in ways such as support etc so yes hopefully nobody gives money to a genuine cause on here or a scam as being low and suffering ill mental health would not be a time to make choices of that nature. X

I don't think all posts are checked by a moderator as they don't have time.  The only time they see posts/replies is when someone reports one.  I don't think anyone would fall for the give me money scams and the best thing to do is report anything like this.  x

Yes exactly! I'm glad we're not that naive, hopefully they'll be removed soon x

Yeah definitely. I have been reporting as I've seen them so hopefully there won't be anymore x

Ditto 2 that huni xx

I always report anything dodgy too.  x

Hi Yasmine - yes I saw that too and wondered how it snuck through. Immediately thought it was scam. Now gimme 5 dollars. 

Yep we're on to them. Haha first chuckle of the day, thanks Wayne :D
