There needs to be far more moderators in The Walking Dead message board, there are literally 20 new threads for every minute that goes on instead of a central live discussion thread. Not to mention people posting obscenities and vulgar language that is circumventing the filter. These people need to have their ability to make new threads revoked as they are creating new threads constantly, it's ridiculous, and it's not good for the servers either. I don't understand how there is not a single moderator in there when you know it's a season finale.

This is supposed to be a board where ppl can come discuss the episode, not be attacked by trolls and have hundreds of threads to sort though to find a decent one. Very poor job on this one IMDB, I used to mod on another message board, and this is piss poor moderating if I've ever seen it

There are no moderators on any IMDB message board. IMDB rely on people reporting problems.

So, if there are trolls and/or people posting in ways that break the terms and conditions, then report them and put them on ignore. If more people report them (as they will on a popular forum) then their posts will get scrubbed and their quota increased. If they keep it up the sanctions keep ramping up.

Emperor, that board is so out of control there is no way to report every offender. Dustin is right, there are pages and pages of threads that have nothing to do with the topic, and most of them are offensive as well. Someone really needs to clean that board out.

There is no need to report every offender - if you report the starter of a thread (if they've done something wrong) then the whole thread will be deleted.

This is not the proper approach. Someone needs to go onto that board and clean it up. Plain and simple.
