A: answer deleted as spam/offensive, doesn't seem to be

NathanOliverI am one of the people who flagged that answers as spam. It was reported in the SOCVR chat room by the spam detecting bot SmokeDetector created by the Charcoal Team That link at the bottom has nothing to do with the question and we should not edit spam links out of a answer. The only recourse ...

Reads like project spam. SO users have a pretty good record detecting crap like this without the help of a bot. Well, other than the OP :) This kind of organized witch hunting is very creepy. — Hans Passant 13 mins ago

Sure it's creepy. Sure it's been abused on occasion (and such abuse stopped when it's noticed). But organized spamming is way way worse, IMO.

The value of stuff like SmokeDetector isn't so much that this stuff wouldn't get caught otherwise, @Hans... It's that it might not get caught as quickly. Two minutes after that answer was deleted, the same user tried to post on another question... But was blocked by the system since his previous answer had been identified as spam. This is a minor convenience on Stack Overflow, but a huge boon to other sites where a delay might mean dozens of such answers waiting for a moderator to wake up. — Shog9 ♦ 5 mins ago

What are you doing that depends on https support?

@rene meh. Shog made a good point, some people upvoted it. Don't really see the issue.
No one thinks we're a cabal, literally everything about all of this is public.
(cabal: a secret political clique or faction.)
And if someone raises a concern, we can address it
But... SOCVR is a group of moderation-minded users, and we're a group of moderation-and-automation-minded users.
So we work together pretty well.
If actual legit stuff is getting deleted by this 'cabal' of moderation-minded folks, then we have a real, material issue we can address.
Ping me the day that happens and we can change something.
