Not sure if this is good or bad yet (depends on implementation), but I noticed the pedojeet's most recent account was globally banned. Never seen that before.
Dom wasn't around, he didn't do it, but those posts, and that account, are banned sitewide. An example: "Globally suspended."
If that's consistent, and not abused, that's huge. We wouldn't need more mods after all, and we wouldn't need to rely on Dom not being am utter retard, or anything.
It took a few hours, but considering it seems to be a new process, if it's consistent and improving, this issue may solve itself. I'll take hours over weeks and, if it improves, all the better.
EDIT: WOW, FOUR FUCKING MINUTE BAN. Let's fucking go, lads. Check this shit. He tried to post in this very thread, and was immediately nuked. And it was definitely him, he was talking about watching shit 'dubbed in Tamil.' Oh man, I'm hyped. This might actually be it. He can't post here any more. That's one problem potentially down, let's go!
Logs are very busy the last day or so and Dom is hardly present. There's 25 entries per page and of those Dom is only 5 of them. Everything else is Globalfilter and CommunityFilter slapping down spam posts so whatever test posting was going on yesterday seems to mean the filters are far more resilient.
Please, please, please don't make me defend Dom.
I'm assuming he actually followed through this time, and set up some new filters after his most recent failures and subsequent assblasting.
The mods control CommunityFilter, I believe, so Dom set that up.
Yes, that's my point, although probably not as clearly worded.
Dom wasn't the one who removed those posts, or prevented them I guess could be another way to put it. The filters did which means he wasn't needed around at the time. Sure he likely set them up after the testing that happened but the important point is that it wasn't a problem waiting on a mod for hours/days to be actively online to take direct action towards.
