The forum clean up robot is an automated kind of forum moderation. The robot tries to remove all posts that it recognises as "junk", it also cleans up badly formatted weblinks, excessive use of smilies, excessive use of the quote feature, and more. Junk being posts like 'lol' or fewer than a certain number of characters.
It also removes posts that contain either:
- Just a smiley/emoticon and nothing else
- Just the comment "lol" and nothing else
- Just a forum quote and nothing else
- A combination of the above and nothing else
Recent activity by the clean up robot can be seen in the clean up log.
