“View New Posts” link is pointless

There’s just so much spam!

Even worse as a moderator and it shows the “SPAM” thread.

No spam on it for me.

Think it is only useless for Mods

When a spammer posts before the mods move it I imagine it would show in the search result! - no?

Please bear with us. New site is going to have a lot less spam.

Yeah I know, I can deal with it for now and I bet it’s the biggest stress for you.
Everything still on track? Will it happen before or after the new year?

I use that ‘view new posts’ all the time & I love it!

Yeah I always use it. Sometimes there is a bit of spam but you just scroll down to the proper posts.

I guess “pointless” is a bit harsh.

I use it all the time also but when the spammers are active I end up with so many pages of new posts (like today).
It’s actually really handy for finding the spam posts. I just wish the “SPAM” thread was excluded from the search criteria so once moved there by other mods it disappeared.
