Can we have a feature that automatically deletes topics with "Ransomware" in title?

[Nicnac]

Pls! And yes this Topic would be affected, too

Deleting a topic based of the title without knowing the content is so wrong.

You don't judge a person by appearance

Same you don't judge Linus's video by his clickbaity thumbnails

Sounds good. That way anyone posting a topic with a news update on the current ransomeware situation will have the topic removed automatically, fantastic.

This isn't a serious suggestion, as you probably figured. I am just soooo annoyed by all these people asking the same thing and creating useless topics

How about updating one existing topic without creating an army of new ones?

How about leaving one or two original, well formatted and written post that can be updated?

[Nicnac]

Oh how about this: Feature automatically detects "Ransomware" or equally trending topics and then asks you a couple questions allowing you only to post topic once you have basic understanding of the topic...

Obviously this would only be for news topics and those would have to be moderator-chosen. Would unfortunate to block people asking questions about pc building etc. I mean that's what this forum is about..... Ugh I am putting way too much thought into something that was meant to be a joke.

This topic is even worse than the ransomware!

Shitpostware!

Help posts and guides are a different aspect and don't fall under this rule as I elaborated on here:

I can see why this won't work

 

Moderator will need to spend time to research what Ransomware is aboutbefore maing question and the question must be difficult enough to truly validate that the OP clearly knows what he's doing

It is. We have no information yet. Please stay tuned!

I dont see a way how it can be only on one topic,wonder if all forum creates a topic with "Ransomeware" in it,how many threads would the MOD,ADMIN have to delete,oh yeah,only a billion

You're absolutely right which is why I never gave this a serious thought anyways  

 

On a serious note: I actually read something about certain news networks wanting to implement a certain feature in their websites, so that people who comment on a topic have to fully read and understand an article first. This was proposed to fight the spread of "fake news". But I see this as a rather unrealistic goal as well.
