Was i right to move these comments here

I personally think this is the best place, that’s why I started this thread here (the other one was under languages only).

I saw you were tidying but didn’t realise you were doing it live, so I’ve come back here and deleted my posts that are no longer relevant.

It’s also what MohammedSherwi wanted.

Oh. Thats a relief.

Can you make sure all the closed posts point here so people know where to go if they find the old post - but I think you have unlisted them so no need

Oli-M · August 15, 2018, 2:57pm

I need to unlist them

Hi @nadroy, thanks for the excellent work you have done in identifying so many points harvesting courses.

Hi @lien, @joshua, @beatrisy @MemriseMatty or @MemriseSupport can one of you take a look at these (and the two posts above), please?

PS who is the best person to contact these days?

Oli-M · September 18, 2018, 3:14pm

Uhhh. Not really sure to be honest. Joshua or memriseMatty? they are both the first to respond

@DW7 I suggest making an algorithm that automatically detect point farms (tests for the same word being “taught” or checking how long it takes for people to finish each level) etc.
