Are we done announcing bans? Judging from last night's activity, I have to assume some accounts were deleted.

Nope no accounts were deleted or banned or disabled. We have tools to deal with brigading and they kept it in SBBH so I can't ban anyone if they keep it in their sub. However the brigading of accounts was reversed after they finished up their non sense.

What are the tools to deal with brigading? The voting details?

So weird they created multiple usernames if no username was getting stopped. Were they just assuming they needed to?

They seemed to give up pretty quickly after they realized no one was paying any attention to them. We have admin tools to prevent brigading from sticking. They are still a work in progress but they were implemented well enough to deal with that non sense.

What are these anti-brigading admin tools? Like what do they do? This sounds cool.

No, no accounts were deleted as those accounts did not break any rules. They only posted in the sub.

Right, but wasn't unable to delete/ban accounts so he changed the password and logged them out instead so they couldn't log in? If that were the case it wouldn't show up on a ban log.

edit: are bans even on the 'site log' thingy? I do see user gabara being enabled/disabled 3 days ago

The not being able to ban accounts thing has been fixed for quite a while now. Garbara was not banned he has been disabled pending a discussion with the admins as his vote manipulation attempts has forced me to intervene.

Do the logs say so? I assume they were not banned as they broke no rules other than some vote manipulation which is arguable and now easily corrected. I really would like for a fix to receiving notifications from you as it is annoying.

But they bothered to create multiple accounts to spam /new. I assume that means their accounts were locked one by one. That's why I'm checking in. I thought the purpose of this sub was to notify us of ban activity.

Nope no account locking took place or anything like that.

I don't know the technicalities but it could have been multiple people being assholes but still within the confines of free speech. is oddly silent today but hopefully can shed some light on it. Curious do you receive notification that I responded to you?

Yeah I receive notifications for you. I'm not sure if I'm missing some because if I was I wouldn't see them.
