Forum:Spam Pages To Get Badges

Over on our LEGO Nexus Adventures wiki for a fanmade game we're making, a user, LUModder, made tons of spam pages to boost his badges/points to become #1 on the leaderboard. Is there any way that admins can revert that kind of thing to the points only? I got rid of the pages, but he still has his underserved points/badges. I'm trying to cover this up before a wiki war breaks out over this. (People get persnickity.) Does he have to delete this user or something? I want the least impact while getting it done. Thanks anyone. Ferfature 01:32, February 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * This kind of thing happens all the time. There is nothing you can do. You may be able to have the badges removed if you send a message to Special:Contact/general, but I don't think it's very likely.


 * You could about it and see if there's anything staff can/will do about it. I am sure they can remove the users' badges, but whether they will is a different story. It's far-fetched, but is your only option. Perhaps staff should make it so that banned users are removed from a site's leaderboards.


 * It's best to come up with a policy for spamming for badges and ban those that break it after a warning before they make it to the #1 slot. Rappy 01:48, February 21, 2012 (UTC)
