Have you ever looked at the Hot Deals section of Slickdeals, sorted it by Thread Started to see the most recent posts, and every single post is by Selma?EEK!

Is it me or do other people notice this happening all the time?Confused

I browsed through the hot deals section and the thread I linked to
Quote from criticism :
In one of the recent spam posts by "Selma", they had "Selma" "post" some things in order to appear that "Selma" is a person. vomit
does not show up. It seems they hid it (of course this can be changed in the future).

They also deleted discussion in that thread of "Selma" being a spam robot and not an actual person.

Then the owner of slickdeals (or mods using the owner's login?) felt it important enough to come and post in this thread about their spam robot. And you know "Slickdeals" rarely ever posts.

So, their spam robot is kind of a big deal to the Slickdeals ownership/administration.

Are we allowed to call OP an idiot?

OP do you really have nothing better to do than to bitch about something that probably has no affect on you except for a minor inconvenience? If you don't like her posts ignore her. There's an ignore button. farking use it.

Below was what you posted and it was deleted because it's not true. We care because you're spreading false information. You can call her a bot all you want since she doesn't seem to care. However, when you say SD staff is involved in logging into her account, that is libel. How would you like it if someone spreads rumors about you that isn't true?
Quote from criticism :
just because some mods/admins log onto the "Selma" username and type some crap on "deals" that they make money from does not make "Selma" an actual person or anything other than a spam robot.

Also, see this thread
There is one gaping hole in your conspiracy theory. Do you see any of our mods promoting Fatwallet cash back? If she was SD staff, I'd fire whoever logs into her account. Secondly, our hot deal mods have quality standards for posting deals. We try not to post crap deals.

If it isn't obvious to you, which you seem to be oblivious to, this is a deal site. People post deals here. What kind of a deal site would it be if we banned users for posting deals? That's a great way to drive users away. Look at the other big site. Smilie

Remove your tinfoil hat please. I think my microwave beam is getting deflected by it.

Yes, and please, it's getting old seeing threads in the lounge made about her bot-like behavior. If you have done a search and realized many others notice this, too, then you should know you are too late on the realization. If you haven't done a search for threads about her, then shame on you.

Hey, have you guys noticed that Selma creates a lot of new threads in the Hot Deals section? It's almost like she's a bot.....

They remove them because they are tiresome. Slickdeals posts pretty often.
