You'd have to ask @Undo for a definitive call on that one. On Hardware Recs, I'd say NAA but not spam.

Spam, then

@SmokeDetector Can't tell if this is spam.

...link is new: stackoverflow.com/search?q=url%3Axamarindesigner.com

The app is free, which weighs against it being spam, but there is insufficient evidence here. I will presume innocent until proven guilty.

@bwDraco Don't bother.

NobodyNada

@hichris123 why not?

hichris123

Because this person will likely never do anything ever again. And if they will, they're probably not dumb enough to use the same username.

Only bots and people who want attention use similar/the same username.

NobodyNada

oh yeah, he used the same account both times

you're right

ArtOfCode

We tend to use username blacklists for people who keep coming back under the same username, like wingding. Otherwise, it's more effective to catch the content somehow.

A: Winter Bash closing remarks - ideas for next year

As the Winter Bash leader on Super User with 32 hats, I have to say that Winter Bash was a lot of fun and I learned a lot during my participation. However, I have a few objections with respect to some of the hats. The Imitation Crab and Red Shirt hats led some users to cast meritless downvotes ...

17 hours ago, by angussidney

They should have a hat for flagging spam this year

NobodyNada

22:40

@ArtOfCode the problem is, that guy was posting NSFW imgur links disguised as documentation

bwDraco

I already had a similar idea two years ago:

NobodyNada

so there was nothing that Smokey could catch

bwDraco

> raising at least ten helpful flags

NobodyNada

What if we blacklisted a link whose text looked like a link but went somewhere else?

ArtOfCode

@NobodyNada I saw, but that doesn't make a username blacklist worth it

NobodyNada

22:42

by that I mean a filter that would catch things like [documentation.com](spam.com)

ArtOfCode

@NobodyNada Hmmm. Possibly, but you'd want to take special cases into account, like [github.com](http://github.com)

Perhaps if we reported links that went to a different host entirely

bwDraco

Call it "misleading link target"?

NobodyNada

right, maybe a filter for a different domain

@ArtOfCode Is there documentation anywhere for the JSON list of rules?

I can figure most of it out, but I'm not sure what body_summary does, and I don't want to get anything else wrong.

Does this look right:

{'method': misleading_link, 'all': True,
         'sites': [], 'reason': 'misleading link in {}', 'title': False, 'body': True, 'username': False, 'stripcodeblocks': True, 'body_summary': False, 'max_rep': 11, 'max_score': 1},
