Hi Ralf. Answers should be more than just links to external sites. Your answer should itself contain the necessary explanation, such that it remains useful even if the link goes dead. Link-only answers are officially discouraged and may be removed. Also, you need to disclose your affiliation with sites you link to: please see our promotion guidelines, aptly titled How to not be a spammer. You should not be here primarily to promote your site but to provide high quality answers. — doppelgreener 6 secs ago

Hi Ralf. You need to disclose your affiliation with products you're recommending. Please see our promotion guidelines. Since you are UI.Vision staff, you need to disclose that in the content of your answer. Also, please do not try to use our site for SEO — your links should be clearly labelled and descriptive.

@Mithical A tool which allows admins to manipulate where your flags go without your approval.

Is there some sort of official documentation on it? How frequently is it used? What criteria are used when pulling flags for its use?

I only know because I was messing around with my autoflag parameters somewhat recently and saw it mentioned there.

user435118

@Mithical It would. This could have been dealt with in a normal way and actually asking the user "can I disable your account" rather than doing so without asking the user.

Makyen

@Mithical Daniil asked for us to prevent use of his account as part of a spam wave. The only method of doing that which we have available is to disable his account. I asked explicitly if this was what was desired and he reiterated his request. I complied with his request in the only way available, other than destroying his account.
