Meta spamming has not (yet?) recovered from the rep>=2 requirement... For the last month, it's in the distant 12th place, far off its usual #5 spot. The new #5 (after the stable top 4 of SO/Drupal/SU/AU) is Information Security.
FYI, you can go to this metasmoke page to link your account to SE (no write access, etc. Doesn't even store the token). That'll let it associate chat feedback with your MS account.

(also, let me know how broken it is)
Long-term plan is to switch manual approving to just requiring OAuth, that way I can at least hunt people down if they abuse the system.

@undo @ArtOfCode I'd be interested in writing some wiki guidance on how to use metasmoke and art's new user script. Is there any need for that in your opinion?
@ArtOfCode I'm noticing that I already gave feedback on the above two posts on site, using new script. But when manually reported it showed up in MS needing review. Interesting that sd sees it as a separate post, or the new report as a separate instance. I didn't realise that they were not linked, as per post.
To discuss with the CMs during the meeting: can undeletion please bump the post to the SE.com realtime tab so that Smokey can detect undeleted spam that was deleted by its author.

@undo Your oAuth thing seems to be working, but only under the /admin/user_feedback?user_name=Your_Email_Adress link, not under the /admin/user_feedback?use_name=Your_Username link
Sad that moderation privs are tied strictly to rep then
In my current participation, I'll never get to delvotes or 10k tools, because I spend 90%+ of my time on here doing administrative things that give no rep
I figured I'd try out the userscript, see if it makes my life easier. If you guys need some more guys manning the night shift here, I'd be happy to assist
@ArtOfCode Bug: When you are the last person to flag before a post gets nuked, the userscript displays an error with "element not found" but sends the feedback properly anyways
@ArtOfCode I think it has to do with the fact that being the last one to flag a post before it gets destroyed triggers an instant automatic page reload
Userscript people: this should be the last update you have to do manually. 0.2.6 adds an automatic update URL for Tampermonkey: visit the repo to update.
I could create a new write API route on metasmoke, and send the report through the websocket to Smokey... but we're talking a few seconds of latency there
Ah, screw it, I can't fix these tests. @undo you've got a metasmoke PR from me because it needs some checking, the tests fail miserably and I can't fix them :)
@ArtOfCode On that note anyways, NAA/Not NAA discussions are notoriously fickle, and invalidated feedback based on that feels pretty arbitrary. Maybe we can have some clearer guidance then the unclear and "depending on which mod looks"
Users of my Smokey Sidebar script: I've updated that, too, and put it in the scripts repo. Updating to the new version will get you auto-updates for anything new I put in, and will send your feedback through the API where it should be going. Repo.

@Magisch The problem there is NAA's themselves are pretty hard to call
