you can only pin something once per pinner

I guess that by that time, some of the links need to be changed anyway. Development here takes 6-8 minutes, instead of weeks.

Q: Make creating a dev story part of the "new user" privilege

Users with developer stories (beyond very minimal stories) currently can't be destroyed by moderators. Spammers are using this (warning, spammer link) to circumvent destruction of their user accounts, which is less than ideal. Obviously SE staff can still remove these user accounts, but the extra...

@ArtOfCode The problem is it wasn't a problem, TBH. Tripleee aimed to help deal with spam better

But they didn't cooperate well, as far as I can tell, because of the previous dispute

@M.A.R. that's our side of the story.

aye

8:05 PM

The problem is that even though we follow the rules, it can be rather intimidating if a low-rep user tells a handful of moderators how they should run their site.

someone tell me what the original debate was?

@ArtOfCode IIRC a GD mod locked a spam post, and some of us got upset about that.

and now they're mad at us?

@ArtOfCode do you mean today, or a couple of months back?

@ArtOfCode IIRC an overreaction to a mis-handle of spam in a quiet time when no one was around to cool people off escalated

8:07 PM

@quartata yes, locked, which disables any flagging on it.

what on earth

@Glorfindel I'm trying to work out what the source of today's dispute was

@Glorfindel There wasn't much drama today. Close to no drama

@M.A.R. raises eyebrows

@ArtOfCode I think reading today's transcript of The Ink Spot is enough.

8:08 PM

But there was some angriness and defensiveness from their side, which is natural

@Glorfindel yeah, I've done that, but I can't figure out why the animosity started

A group of people who look like a gang you picked a fight with a few months back appear here today again. What do you do?

@ArtOfCode Well, I did occasionally want to punch something because they kept thinking I implied things I didn't imply, but my threshold for drama is higher

Maybe relevant to the "Apple spam is removed quicker:" doesn't Apple have a 3-flag threshold, while GD is still at 6?

@NobodyNada nope, Apple is at 6 as well.

@ArtOfCode I haven't done so, so you know more about it than me now :P

@NobodyNada Thing is, we weren't complaining about anything today, while GD mods were complaining that we were complaining. o.o

So it's like everyone spoke English but no one understood one another.

8:14 PM

lemme work the thing out before we all start pointing fingers

@ArtOfCode Sure, the whole transcript is available

@M.A.R. yeah, I'm talking to the GD mods

I was thinking the best thing to do would be to disengage and leave everything be, but then I thought if mods don't solve it among themselves, this is gonna happen again sooner or later

For which I apparently earned a Reversal badge and forgot all about it. o.o

8:28 PM

I read the transcript, but I have no idea why they're upset...is it just because we were wondering why it takes longer for spam to be deleted, or is it because they don't want us to delete spam?

@NobodyNada The TL;DR; is one of my messages, a moment

@M.A.R. @tripleee Could you (both) give me the one-sentence summary of what started the thing last night?

@NobodyNada import crystal.ball

@NobodyNada what I don't get is where's the evidence that says spam takes longer to get deleted on GD?

in The Ink Spot, 2 hours ago, by M.A.R.

@DᴀʀᴛʜVᴀᴅᴇʀ I see. There seems to be this feeling that we're (Charcoal is) questioning your handling of spam, while neither I nor tripleee thought anything like that when coming here.

@Nob @Undo ^

Or even Art ^

8:30 PM

in The Ink Spot, 16 hours ago, by tripleee

@Ryan thanks. I don't have numbers yet but I received a database dump and intend to look into it to see if my subjective impression is based on significant real differences

So to them we seem like raiders who question their ability to be mods

afk for lunch

Simply because their first encounter a few months back was because of a mis-handle of a spam by a mod

@ArtOfCode am I helping at all/can I help at all, or would you like me to just shut up and let you deal with it?

Which is ... strange ... because longer deletion times would indicate less active users, not less active moderators.

8:32 PM

@NobodyNada you're good

So whatever I said had this implication that I question their ability to handle spam

@Glorfindel or mods, since the mods don't delete the spam right away

@ArtOfCode thanks!

But whatever I said on that chat today was the normal me

Which isn't much, but doesn't cause drama

Okay. Undo is pulling data on this. I don't think GD is any faster or slower than the average, but we'll see. Apple is faster, so it may not be a fair comparison.

Pulling from the last 3 months, only true positives:

Average across the network is 1319s

@ArtOfCode I think we're departing from the main topic at hand

@M.A.R. which is?

How totally hideous Python decorators are

solution, don't use them and just call your methods at the right time ;)

Closures three functions deep

GD.SE is upset about the previous drama, so anything we said implied their site didn't handle spam as well as, say, SO

@quartata None, actually.

in The Ink Spot, 8 hours ago, by Ryan

Now to get this settled once and for all hopefully I'm going to speak pretty bluntly here. @M.A.R. your people skills need improvement. I was having a nice conversation with @tripleee but you came in here making all sorts of weird assumptions. Even Tripleee could tell and suggested you back off.

Is that a normal mod, or a frustrated mod?

@M.A.R. I'm also going to be blunt. You weren't listening to him, which is why he got frustrated.

Not a healthy question. I'm trying to figure out what led to that.

I don't care if they ignore it, heck, I'm just an outsider

And I can and would happily drop it

Restart: API quota is 19776.

8:39 PM

But I hate to say "told you so" a few months later when something else happens

@M.A.R. ya know the solution to that? Don't say it.

You're still speaking in generals. I need specifics - what happened?

@Undo As I said, I was the normal me, but anything I said implied I'm questioning their handling of spam

If people cause themselves problems and don't want your advice, be it on their heads. You did what you could to offer advice. It's not productive to continue arguing beyond that.

So the start was chat.stackexchange.com/transcript/1240?m=36328893#36328893?

in The Ink Spot, yesterday, by tripleee

thanks, just observing from Charcoal HQ (where we work to remove spam) that spam deletion times on Graphics Design are longer than on many other sites, at least by my subjective judgment

8:41 PM

@Undo tripleee called in for some help, IIRC.

Ryan said that spam removed by 6 flags isn't visible to mods in any way

@Undo does that take into account posts without deletion logs?

that's because it's not, without significant hunting

And I thought it is available in some queue, so I had to check with Bhargav on SO.

@Glorfindel true positives only, with deletion logs

I went for lunch, came back and saw that message

8:42 PM

@M.A.R. question: why wasn't Ryan telling you so enough?

Ryan is also a mod and has access to the same tools an SO mod does

@ArtOfCode Mod UI is something I can't see, and I always confirm what I can't see

@Undo because deleted posts without deletion logs might significantly skew those numbers.

Unless it's something I shouldn't see, like dev stuff, voting info etc.

This wasn't the first time a mod said something about mod UI, and I confirmed it with another mod

@Glorfindel They just wouldn't be counted here. If we're past 20 minutes, we've already failed anyway

And they never respond like Ryan did.

8:44 PM

@Undo But those are exactly the cases where tripleee based his 'subjective judgement' on.

He's a reasonable guy. I'm trying to be a reasonable guy. But I'm telling you -- the previous drama has caused them to think that if I enter their chatroom, it's to backlash at some mod for handling some spam flag

@M.A.R. how are you with constructive criticism?

@ArtOfCode depends on how it's stated. I either discard it, or accept it and try to improve.

Why don't we just ask SE for a "recently deleted by spam flags" queue

... That's interesting.

Yeah, okay. @M.A.R. You're worked up. If you wanna hear it tomorrow, I'll tell you what I'm thinking then, but it's not gonna work out now. I'm not about to tell you to not stick your nose in places, because it's useful having people willing to do that, but there are some comments I'd make about how you can go about it.

@Undo We need a dump then to get any real data

Or to fix deletion watching and let it run

I will repeat, however, that GD is not holding grudges. Nor are their mods. None of this is about "those dern charcoalers on are lawn agin".

Although I suppose the ratio of tps without deletion logs / tps tells us something

@quartata Comments are small compared to jiffs

And posts?

Yeah, even posts don't get oneboxed

Except Feeds posts from meta.SO

Which aren't that much anyway

Oh yeah they'll indiscriminately poop all over anybody who one-boxes anything in there. They are, by far, the easiest room to get worked up.

Their only saving grace is they do good things.

I might know of a few that are easier

@M.A.R. That's a decent motive, then. Here's mine: It's probably better, in general, to let moderators tell other moderators that kind of stuff, or at least run it by one. It doesn't look like what happened here, but we've all seen folks get territorial when someone tries to tell them how to run their site, right or wrong.

Speaking generally, not about this case. No reason to assign blame here.

@Undo Rightfully so. Thanks. Will do from now on
