I feel like the latest round of mods and IKs ever since I stepped down about a year or so ago have been strangely reserved about handing out probations particularly for low-grade bad posts that mostly get glossed over but are just generally stuff no one wants to read (like, for example, the chronic desire for goons to post about their disgusting bodily functions)

Dustcat posted:agree if you mean the butt wiping chat that often arises because of those two or three goons who are really militant about it yes I do mean the predilection for goons to post about their shits, the consistency of their shits, the quality of their shits, the smells of their shits, the frequency of their shits, and so on. it's a type of posting that is interesting to strictly only the poster and not to anyone else reading it, and furthermore, it is disgusting. I don't really care about bitchellposting one way or another

SKULL.GIF posted:I don't really care about bitchellposting one way or another although I don't like bill mitchell, I absolutely do not give a gently caress about bill mitchell posts and think it's dumb to create such tiny rules like a ban on posting bill mitchell. Once there is a rule saying bill mitchell can't be posted, then people start going out of their way to do it just to be annoying, and then other people start reporting bill mitchell because it's a rules violation and then the mods have to deal with a giant pile of bitchell and suddenly this has transformed into the bill mitchell forum. He is a troll and all trolls feed off of attention, the best way to make him go away is to ignore him, IMO. If we banned tweets from every despicable rear end in a top hat with lovely opinions, C-SPAM would have nothing left to talk about. But IKs can probe bill mitchell posts all day for all I care

seattle plague rat posted:wonder if i should keep digging and do a whole big effortpost about how spotty the moderation is or if that makes me a tryhard bootlicker C-SPAM probably has the highest posting rate of any subforum, and even with the 4 of us we don't read every post, and even though I read that thread pretty thoroughly, I scroll past stuff sometimes, and I missed this. Thank you for pointing it out, I gave them a probe saying that there was a better way they could have approached discussing this issue. People should report stuff like this, but nobody did for this one. I see you don't have platinum on your account, and so IIRC you don't have a report button. I don't know why it is the case that people need to pay for an account upgrade to have a report button, but that discussion is better suited for a QCS thread than here

I have no idea how computers work, but if you want to cobble together a bot that would scan c-spam for slurs and racist terms and automatically file a report, then that would seem to me to be a more efficient system than the one we currently have, and you have a valid point when you show us how much we miss. But you'd probably have to talk to Jeffrey about how to actually implement such a thing. I'm totally down with a c-spam anti-slur bot

GalacticAcid posted:I just don’t like the idea of text strings triggering automatic reports with no regard for context. Think things should be reviewed based on people actually taking offense. so, whenever a post is reported it goes into a hidden subforum which only mods can read which lists all the reports, and there we (the mods) have to look over them and decide whether to act on it or not, and often we are supposed to post our reasoning behind making a decision, and then this is looked over again by an admin before being resolved. Sometimes there is a little discussion if the mod is unsure what to do. So what such a bot would do is report every post in c-spam which contains a slur, and then it would end up in the report queue where it would be analyzed by a mod to determine if it is acceptable in the context or not. This wouldn't sidestep any element of the moderation process, but it would save posters the trouble of having to file a report every time they see a slur. But again, I have no idea how any of this works and from what I can tell the mechanisms holding this forum together barely function as it is, so I wouldn't hope for this to be a reality, but if there is some computer wizard who wants to figure out how to implement this sort of thing, I would be for it. But it also depends on the feedback of the other posters and mods, and the admins who actually know how this poo poo works
