As a compliment or alternative* to not refunding cancelled stars, it'd be nice if chat would auto-raise a flag identifying someone starring n items in x minutes, or at least provide a list of unusually active starrers that could be consulted when there was a problem.

While star-spam is fairly low on the totem pole of malicious abuse, it's obnoxious enough that giving moderators some ability to identify problem users so they could be suspended from chat would be a welcome change.

This of course assumes that users suspended from chat cannot star things, which I'm not positive of. If they can, this feature request is extended to prevent that as well.

*We scienced thisscienced this and apparently they are not refunded, unless you undo your own star. So that's good. It's possible in the case that provoked this request that there were multiple people involved or the one person beat the star-canceller to the punch, so the annoyance factor is still there to a degree.
