Deleted more spam sites.
I'm at it again, deleting fakes and software downloads.
Most of the links here were not to movies but to websites you could sign up for membership to watch movies. So why come here if you could just sign up there ? Surely thats against the rules.

Yep- those are all considered spam sites. We ban any site that's just plain spamming the site, so please report any spam sites you find to spamsucks@sidereel.com so we can warn and block as needed.
Otherwise, we're updating our automatic tool for removing banned site links from SideReel, so once that's taken care of, spam will be more easily and efficiently removed from the site.
Let me know if you have any questions! contact@sidereel.com
honestly im starting to think that maybe these membership fee sites are working with SIDEREEL! cos ive reported hundreds from the same site (VIDS.TV) an they still ther :-(
hmmmmm? maybe you guys are gettin a refferal fee for every dumbass who pays for what should be free!
if i am wrong and this is not the case, could somone please explain how such an obvious SPAM site is still readily available on what USED TO BE the best link site around, a week after being reported, ive even discussed this exact site with KENDRA last week.
vids.tv have been banned, so you just need to delete all the vids links (and there are many links)
SideReel is community run. No site "works with SideReel". Some users take advantage of the open nature of the site and attempt to make money in the process. We do not condone this and when you see this happening - let us know - and we will unleash our considerable admin "powers" upon them. Thank you for your help and "care".
I know it can be frustrating to run into lots of spam, often times the same links under the same headers on various pages. But as time goes by, these sites get reported, banned, and moderators and involved users clean them off the site. Sidereel is always improving and expanding as an index for a variety of shows, and spam comes with the territory in highly trafficked sites. Just keep a sharp eye out and you can help us crush it together.
