Nas Talks About Album No-Shows, Def Jam Presidency

Hey there--

We’re looking into this, and will be addressing this issue with those who are adding items to unrelated groups. Taking off tags will not affect the groups your item is in; only the moderator or group owner can remove an items from a group.

Because someone may not be aware of all the related groups, group members can add any content to groups they belong to. For example, if someone creates a fan page for a hip hop artist, they might see an interview with that artist that you added, and want to include your item in their group. In the future, if you notice that your items are being added to non-relevant groups, you can always shoot us an email at support@current.com or use the flag option to let us know, and we can investigate.

Thank you stephanie for your insight. Being that we are the leading music poster on current, it makes it very hard for us to go back and look at every story to see who is attaching what group names to it. How can we stop this from happening? There are alot of people and staff as well that keeps asking (and some telling) us to stop spamming or we will get banned. The reality is we are not attaching all these unwanted groups to are stories. We attach the music group and the same 5 tags to everyone of our stories (music, hiphopdx, hip hop, rap and entertainment). So what can we do about this, or are you telling me we have to go back to every story for now on and continously take out unwanted tags? If thats the case why wouldnt current only allow the poster to add groups to avoid this problem and really see who it is adding them?

Hey guys--

Just to clear something up here. Anyone who is a member of a group can add a story to that group, not just the original poster.

However, moderators and group owners do have the ability to remove unrelated stories from their group. If you think something is in the wrong group, you can always give the group owner or mod a heads up.

Best,

im not arguing that we dont have the ability to go in and delete the groups but why should i take even more time outta my busy day (having the #1 hip hop site in the WORLD!) to delete group posts that other people are adding?? Honestly, to have a feature where anyone can add a group title to it is very stupid, b/c this is the type of thing that happens. Since your so positive that we are doing it that just shows the ignorance you have and is making me think your are racist and biased to the hip hop cutlure.

Its not just me, look around yourself...

But if I could edit the groups, I would, but its yours, since no one else can, because the poster can have group tags that no one else can edit, but the poster...

Your account says so, not necessarily you..Its still you, however..

metalcookie! you have no idea what your talking about! its not editing, YET AGAIN, ANYONE can add groups to a story, pick a story any story your little heart desires and i will add my group to it, or better yet pick one of my stories and add whatever group you want!!!

Since no one can actually edit the group tags, it has to be yours..

we did not put those group tags on these stories, is it possible for someone else too? B/C we absolutely 100% have not put our stories in the wrong groups.

Not relevant for Movies.

Stop Group Spamming or else.

Hey, quit tagging this stuff with gaming or else I'm going to ban you.
