I’m gonna say something that may shock some readers and give you an legit answer to your post Any posts on the forums that gets reported will be reviewed by ninjas. Those paid carries post usually gets removed after it’s reviewed whenever a ninja gets to it How fast do ninjas get to it? They have a list of reported posts that needs reviewing so they have to go thru a shit ton of posts (people need to stop reporting posts that don’t violate the code of conduct, it’s a waste of time). Also, depends on how many ninjas are checking the reported posts on a daily basis. It seems like the amount of active ninjas has died down so it’s usually the same small circle of ninjas who review posts. These guys are hand picked volunteers so it’s up to Bungie to add more to the mix. The problem is that the lfg paid carried posts are automated with throw away accounts so it’s basically hard to keep up with. I don’t think IP banning is a thing on the forums. It’s up to Bungie to figure out a better solution. Keep reporting these posts is the best thing we can do. Sincerely, A future ninja. 😉😋
