| Aug 24, 2012 at 16:06 | comment | added | nhinkle | Thank you @Gnoupi for your supportive comments. I agree, it's frustrating to be told that these tools exist but we can't use them. It would be nice if they could make some more of this available. | |
| Aug 24, 2012 at 16:02 | comment | added | Gnoupi | So what, there are such tools, but moderators are not going to get access to them? There is no need for blacklisting if you have a large enough pool of moderators ready to deal with such things. But actually give them the tools to work with it. On SU, there was a Deposit user, created exactly for this purpose, agglomerating this information. It is now discouraged, from what I heard. Then give the mods the means to deal with that, the proper way. (cc @nhinkle) | |
