THIS IS WHAT A LEECHER IS

[360]

I found it really stupid that a lot of "fdoa;fadoi" and "thanks" and "tyyyyyyy" peoples still is unware that they are a leecher. Every once in a while there would be this white pleb in sb asking what is a leecher. 

This document explains what is a leecher, what are the punishments for leeching, and how to not be a leecher

And this thread made by ksz furthermore explains actions that will be taken to leechers + multi

Stay safe and don't be a leecher

Most leechers already know what they are doing but still they do it because its not that hard to make a new account

Good thread, but the @Leechometer mentioned in the referenced posts isn't scheduled to run currently.  Until recently I was under the impression most leechers would get auto-banned.  We have to manually report the leechers and mods ban them after reviewing. You can reference this thread.

I go through pretty much every response to my threads and report leechers - even the ones that liked my posts.  To me, it's more about trying to let others access leaked accounts before they get locked, so a lot of times I'll report leechers right before I post new accounts.  It also just pisses me off when people post gibberish like "asdfgsdfg"...at least write "thank you" or something to that effect.

Might help for people who are are actually looking for stuff, but it's not going to do anything about the massive quantity of leechers that don't really GAF.  At least when a user gets banned for leaching they have to go through the whole process of creating another email account and re-registering. 

Not sure if it would help to put a 24-72 hour pause on accounts after they have registered before they can respond to threads...just one idea I had to curb the leechers.
