@BradLarson Hey there, can you please suspend a troll? https://stackoverflow.com/users/14385358/yeshwin-verma-the-programmer?tab=activity&sort=comments Thanks!
@tripleee I am aware of 8 admins. Currently in this room: tripleee, Makyen, thesecretmaster. Not currently in this room: Thomas Ward, angussidney, ArtOfCode, Andy, Undo.
@EricAya I've added you to the privilege list for SmokeDetector (SD) here in Charcoal HQ. You should run the !!/amiprivileged command to verify. It would be a good idea to read through the Feedback Guidance, SmokeDetector wiki, and SmokeDetector commands (in particular feedback).
You may also want to look at the userscripts we have available (GitHub), as they can be quite helpful, depending on how you want to participate. For viewing, feedback, and flagging in chat, I find FIRE and AIM to be the ones I use the most.
For flagging through the userscripts, your metasmoke account needs to be write authenticated with SE, which, if you haven't already done so, can be done from the authentication page and doesn't require you to also sign up for autoflagging, although authenticating is also a required step for signing up for autoflagging.
In addition, to enable manual flagging through the userscripts, the checkbox that says "Allow metasmoke to raise flags for my account" on this page also needs to be checked. If you have no entries in the "ID Site Count Flags Used Today" list at the bottom of that page, then autoflagging will still not be enabled, but manual flagging through the userscripts will be enabled.
Just so you know, we normally tell people when they are getting privileges that we practice the "ton of bricks" discipline method here: If you mess-up sufficiently, or consistently, we come down like a ton of bricks :-).
To quote ArtOfCode: "TL;DR: ton-of-bricks is mostly to say that we almost never need to enforce things because things enforce themselves through having a good community here. If it gets to the point that someone's enforcing something, something's gone badly wrong."
Quoting NobodyNada [with a bit added]: "Note that 'mess up' doesn't mean 'make a mistake', it means 'do something intentionally irresponsible/antagonistic' [or consistently do something wrong and not change when it's, repeatedly, pointed out]. Charcoalers are generally quite friendly, forgiving of mistakes, and willing to help each other learn. We recognize that our systems and policies have quite the learning curve -- so don't be afraid of us :)"
@Makyen Thank you. I'm reading these articles, there's lots of jargon to get familiar with :). I don't think I'll be a power-user here with scripts, I'm just going to report the spam here instead of SOCVR, as Triplee kindly suggested to me
@Spevacus That pattern looks like it's already caught by Potentially bad keyword in body and Potentially bad keyword in answer Append -force to the command if you really want to add this pattern.

STDERR: To github.com:Charcoal-SE/SmokeDetector.git ! [rejected] master -> master (fetch first) error: failed to push some refs to '[email protected]:Charcoal-SE/SmokeDetector.git' hint: Updates were rejected because the remote contains work that you do hint: not have locally. This is usually caused by another repository pushing hint: to the same ref. You may want to first integrate the remote changes hint: (e.g., 'git pull ...') before pushing again.
@SmokeDetector I mean, willing to block posts such as this, but not because it's just images, and the content doesn't appear to be selling anything. Willing to hear reasons for TP...
