like deleting it now would be a good policy, since /tg/ is new (and I'm
assuming that's what you're talking about). The users aren't used to
being able to post them yet, so they won't revolt if it's deleted.
Hopefully. Any input from the higher-ups? | ###.###.###.### | |

I certainly understand not wanting to shred fifty bux on a new rule
book or something of the sort, what should the policy be on rapidshare
dumps of these? Seems a bit off for a worksafe board, certainly, and is
copyrighted material in the US and Europe, at least, unlike certain
Japanese content.
Right now I delete these dumps or request for
dump threads since they are illegal. It's more widespread now, so any
input on this? | ###.###.###.### | |

/tg/ seems to have a very persistant troll. Normally I'd bring this up
on IRC, but I can't get on until tomorrow or so. He posts either the
same 3 or 4 sfw TransGender (i.e. he wants TG to stand for that) pics of
Evangelion characters or another 3 or 4 Tails from Sonic transgender
furry porn pics. I think he's the same guy posting yuri there
occasionally, too.
Thing is, I delete his picture and make ban
requests, but he's been doing it persistantly for about 4 or 5 days now.
There are a couple ban requests in for him right now. Lately he's
going into /co/ occasionally with the tails pics, too. Help? | ###.###.###.### | |

quality of posts is extremely important to this community. Contributors
are encouraged to provide high-quality images and informative
comments." under this it says that quality is important, so what is
this user posting a screenie of his folders doing? if does not serve a
purpose and or the user could have found a more comprehensive and
relevent pic, why did they even post it? you should also consider /mu/ rule #2 "Trolling, instigating, or participating in a flamewar will result in a ban." what is the user trying to incite? insightful conversation or a shitty thread?
please consider these when making your judgement. it is a very case by case basis | ###.###.###.### | |

while ago there was a thread where a moderator banned a user for
posting a screencap of his music files, claiming that it was pointless
attention whoring. Since then, it has kind of been an unwritten rule
that screencaps of collections are not allowed to be posted. However,
some of them are popping up again and they are being reported. What is
the offical ruling on what to do with them? | ###.###.###.### | |

they'd be helpful enough to type a couple words?

I
watch /w/ and /wg/. /w/ hardly ever has any problems, but the number of
reports per day on /wg/ has been steadily increasing. If someone could
view reports a few times a day, that would probably be sufficient. | ###.###.###.### | |

know that the team is already working on things, so this suggestion may
be coming at a bad time, but I figured that I'd just throw it out there
before I forgot about it myself.
Would it be possible to make a
"reason" field in the report window, so that the average user can sort
of explain the situation in addition to just reporting it? It wouldn't
have to be mandatory to report something, but would just be there for
any extra helpful information that may be needed to explain the
situation, such as "This guy has been spamming this image in a bunch of
threads". The hypothetical image could be worksafe, and if it was simply
reported, the janitor wouldn't know why. An attached user comment would
explain things.
There isn't an urgent need for this (for me at least), but I think that it may be helpful. Your thoughts. | ###.###.###.### | |

would be nice... is a better way to view the entire board, like a
janitor view. Like today, almost 100ish posts with "DESUx70" and "GO
BACK TO BED HAL". No problems manually deleting, but mass deletion
wouldn't be so bad I think. /a/ is hit pretty hard with the wave of
shit. Hope these new tools you speak of don't suck. | ###.###.###.### | |

agree with that. On my board, there's a troll who basically bashes
everything and goes against at least two of the global/board rules in a
post. (Generally mixing /b/tardism rules and 'strong opinion tossing'
rules) I'm not sure how easy or hard it is to ban him (proxies and all
that), but I think I've asked for a ban on him before and he's
definitely a repeat offender.
Sometimes every post he makes in a
thread has to be deleted because of "kike hate" or claims that one side
or the other are "christfags" or "niggerlovers" or some such. | ###.###.###.### | |

complaining about things where the only reason we have to delete it at
all is because the ban requests are not getting answered, where we have
already escalated it to the point of ban requesting. There's nothing we
can do at that point but sit there deleting their reposts and hoping the
moderators wake up. Suggestion #2 (give janitors more powers) was
just intended as an alternate solution to the "ban requests are not
getting handled" problem. The problem is not that janitors don't have
enough power, it's that people who need bans are not getting them. I
don't care how that problem is solved, it just needs to be solved. | ###.###.###.### | |

here are the things I said in the janitor channel
most of you will probably not going to be promoted, but we are trying to improve your tools.
Remember
that the entire point of the janitor program is having people around to
DELETE stuff, not pseudo-mod or be users with special privileges
The
only thing I can do now is let you know that the tools are being
upgraded and I have started yelling at all the other mods to be in
#janiteam all the time. | ###.###.###.### | |

the potential for promoting some of us to mod status, but only on our
own board might be an idea? Sort of a 'Janitor+' rank? We'd have more
power to deal with situations such as these, but there'd be less chance
of anything massively disasterous happening if anyone went on a
powertrip. | ###.###.###.### | |

I
really don't even know the correct situation to use the board flag. Do
I just pop it if some dick starts getting in a repost-delete war
because I deleted his precious cock thread, or is it only when several
people are invading? Because the former example is the one that gives
the most problems. If that's what flag board is for when no mods
respond in irc, great! | ###.###.###.### | |

I said, this has apparently been "being worked on" since last December.
I'm offering my coding services, because this needs to be done (if
nothing else is going to be) I've never used the board alert system, I
don't see what use it is intended for. Massive spamfloods from multiple
people at once, maybe? I've never seen that happen. It doesn't seem to
be any help for the problem I've mentioned: Banrequests work fine, they
just are being ignored. I don't see how flagging a board is going to
make mods that aren't online look at my ban requests.
I'll start triggering all the highlights, then. | ###.###.###.### | |

| 930 | 05/11 19:39 | ALTERNATI... | | There's already a ...There's already a system being worked on to solve this very problem.
also
when is the last time you've used the board alert system? Any mod with
the firefox extension should become aware of any alerts and act on them. Unfortunately
mods can't be on all the time just as you can't be on all the time. Try
setting off the highlights of the mods (I know you've done it before)
or directly PMing someone. Saying "any mods around" doesn't presently
grab anyones attention unless they're looking at the channel.
A
major problem is that not every mod is in #janiteam let alone on irc in
general. We'll make more of an effort to be in the janitor channel. | ###.###.###.### | |

suggested something like that on IRC a few days back. It's a good idea,
but I think 15 is a bit high. More like 5, but do the timeline thing so
they aren't at the same time. Ugh. I mean it has to go: Post-Delete-Post-Delete-Post-BAN, not Post-Post-Post-Post-Delete-Delete-BAN (So a janitor can't pick a thread full of one guy's posts and delete him for that, he has to be "fighting" the janitors) | ###.###.###.### | |

| 928 | 05/11 17:56 | Bachus | | How about this? Wh...How
about this? When a user has several of his posts (tracked by IP I would
assume) deleted in a short period of time, said user is automatically
temp banned for 5-10 minutes. Or after one ban request. Maybe not even
banned from reading, just banned from posting. It would slow down floods
which is the major problem for when no mods are available. | ###.###.###.### | |
