That’s true. I am @Pradumya
I won’t be spamming here obviously, I was just testing the registration process before I could give a suggestion for it.

The best way would be that you require a client id and same email id as on dhan record to sign up for this forum

This way the users can be authenticated and only the users that hold an account with dhan can use this platform.

This is also an issue right?
Someone before joining Dhan may have some doubt on platform, features etc. so a to-be-client could come here and then join Dhan after looking at how support is offered here.

Even I have recommended people to have a look at the community on how easy it is to resolve queries, after which they have agreed to join Dhan.

@RahulDeshpande sir I cannot flag those spammers anymore. It gives error and tells me to wait for 8 hours.

Also sir when I uploaded screenshot it automatically generated some string which was I guess not allowed.
I shared both error screenshots on Twitter.

Got that sir
I general sense, the screenshot taken on Android phone will have hyphens thus while uploading those get blocked with the errors.

Atleast i can flag the spammers now.

Our community is not exclusively for Dhan users. The goal of this community is to foster meaningful conversations among all market enthusiasts. Restricting access to the community only for Dhan users through an authenticated login doesn’t align with our vision. We want our community to remain open and welcoming to everyone

You are now a Tl3 leader along with a few other handful of community members who have the power of moderating it. Once you flag off a post, its unlisted immediately.

  1. Implementing a first-level moderation check by our in-house community moderators is a good idea. We’ll definitely calibrate and assess its effectiveness over the coming week.

  2. We currently have a temporary email sign-up check in place, but interestingly, the recent spammers have been using Gmail accounts. I’ve been monitoring this closely—it seems to be a new tactic by spammers. Rest assured, we’ll introduce stricter rules to address this.

This account of mine and new Account I created just for testing this both are thru temp emails.

I saw it and let it because you had mentioned. :stuck_out_tongue:

That said, I agree it isn’t foolproof, and we are constantly working on improving it. I’ve also noticed that many users prefer to remain anonymous in online communities (especially in gaming, as you might be aware). We didn’t want to impose any restrictions on this, as long as we trust their intentions. However, community moderation remains our top priority, and appropriate processes will be put in place.

Due to pradyuma’s efforts, almost all the posts have been deleted immediately.

Additionally, the new spam detection filters have helped in pausing 245 posts to be posted on community
