@NisseEngström What does that mean?

fp- by FelixSFD

@Catija true positive, blacklist user, don't respond

tp = true positive, 'u' with the TP blacklists the user, '-' is a silencer.

So it keeps the alert from showing up in other rooms?

No

It stops Smokey from replying to the message

@SmokeDetector fp

@Mithrandir Registered question as false positive.

Smokey replies to messages?

Or you mean in here...

In here.

So like what it just did?

?

Smokey won't post anything in TAS except for the report itself at the moment.

you did fp without a - and it responded that it was registered as a false positive.

Yeah

It won't accept feedback in TAS, BTW, I think

But if you'd said fp- it wouldn't have given the confirmation message?

Right

Oh, I don't know that I plan to give feedback anyway. :P

hi what is the forum for

hello??

What do you mean by "what is the forum for"? This is a chat room.

yes, I mean what is being discussed here. What topics are we talking about

@JakeSymons Provided you're on a full web browser, the purpose of a room is generally explained in the room description.

!!/info

@JF I'm SmokeDetector, a bot that detects spam and offensive posts on the network and posts alerts to chat. A command list is available here.

So this is a forum about removing spam??

and offensive posts??

@JakeSymons Our bot detects spam and offensive posts all across Stack Exchange, then reports it here so we can remove it quickly

This is not a forum. It's a chat room.

Okay, is their anything I can do to help

Our homepage has a more detailed description of what we do.

Bust the spam

beat sorry

@JakeSymons Sure! Wait for a report to be posted, open the post, and flag it as spam if it actually is spam.

!!/alive

@JakeSymons You doubt me?

how often do reports come on average

@JakeSymons Depends.

@JakeSymons Depends on what time it is. The average right now is about 30 minutes.

when was the last one today

@SmokeDetector @JakeSymons This one.

Right now, not a whole lot, but around 4:00-8:00 UTC, it happens several times a minute

On the graph whats the difference between true and false positives. Sorry for sounding so dumb I am completely new to everything in the forum

I think? That's my best guess for spam-o-clock

@JakeSymons That’s OK, everyone in here was new at one time.

@JakeSymons True means smoke detector reported something that was indeed spam. False positive means smokey thought it was spam, but humans judged that it wasn't

okay

thanks

No problem!

@JakeSymons You can ask smokey why

@SmokeDetector why

not sure whether that's a positive or a negative detection lol

@DavidPostill ^ cc

still don't see it

@JakeSymons It's the link...

^ that

links are read in as 'words'

oh right, I get it now

@DavidPostill Others of us are puttering around with very evil Python code projects

What are the links on the status tab on my account??

@ThomasWard :)

So... did they really write a sorta legit question just to post a link to that website?

@JakeSymons which links do yuo mean?

@Catija That's what my thought was, but... I can't tell

on my status tap on the metasmoke it say Headers/EC2 Standby

and stuff about pings

@Undo @ArtOfCode not sure if bug, but can't remove my own smokedetectors.

@JakeSymons those aren't specific to you

that's the current status of the SmokeDetector instances

one main, multiple standby, and the last time they pinged in

!!/location

@ThomasWard angussidney/EC2

^ angussidney/EC2's smokedetector instance

oh right

'status' is just a link to the 'current system status' and as MS relies on Smokey and vice versa to some extent, it's good to know the current state of Smokey instances

@JakeSymons Poster has asked similar questions before, also related to a drugs website.

so, nuke them then?

oh,

So the bad word was drugs

What does nuke mean?

@ThomasWard If there's not a button to do it, probably by design

Sorry guys I know I'm asking like so many questions right now

@Undo there is

Maybe a bad design

it doesn't work, says i don't have privs.

@ThomasWard I'm still not sure. They seem to be legitimate questions ...

Oh, well then it's broke

@DavidPostill should I poke SO mods via TL and ask?

@JakeSymons 'nuke' means 'flag the post as spam', or in the mod diamond sense, 'destroy the user with fire and remove them from the site'

@Undo also your opinion on the above report would be nice

Oh

@ThomasWard Well we have an SO mod here called @Undo

Mobile, can't look right now

The user has asked the same question about excluding elements august 3 and now

both about drugs

@Undo well for relevance of why i said potential bug

@JakeSymons nuke == destroy post and/or user spammer

'Remove' says insufficient privs

@ThomasWard Yeah, it's a bug:

It does seem feasible that someone building a website for a dispensary might need help with it?

@Catija Exactly. That's why I'm not sure.

cc @ArtOfCode on that pls fix

Could the drugs bit be edited out just referring to "the website" then giving the actual link in this case?

It's probably a privileges issue -- even if you don't have admin it should to check if it's your smoke detector

@EdCottrell ohai.

also @ThomasWard did you get my comments

What's up?

You get a read about all my newbie questions :)

@Catija Note that the 2 questions are referring to different websites though.

struggling to determine if spam or not, mostly because of the question but also the content of the given link being used in the post

@DavidPostill Same user?

more or less, wanted to bring something of potential-spam to you guys and to clear up our confusion :)

If the link was removed could the question still be understood?

@Catija Yes.

They also seem to be actually responding to comments... I don't think that's something spammers usually do?

And answering questions...

@ThomasWard It's pretty spammy. I think the best approach is going to be to ask them to make their posts less promotional, more technical. Right now, they seem to be heavy on terms related to the sites in question. We'll handle it. Thanks.

And... seriously... her name is Catherine. :P She's got to be OK, right?

@EdCottrell no problem, thanks for stopping by and helping clear our confusion :)

@ThomasWard sure thing

whats @smoked

most of us aren't omnipresent. But you can never tell with @ThomasWard

you get notifications for an @ ping, not from 'general messages'

whats @smokedetor doing

@Mithrandir I drift between 'here' and 'not'.

@ThomasWard and the pit of darkness, I presume

@JakeSymons it's letting us know that a git pull request was processed

being a very good bup

It working now

and also letting us know that CI (our test suites) passed

and that it's merged in and restarted.

when it gets an 'autopull' it needs to restart itself ;)

It does a lot of stuff

@JakeSymons yes, it does

that's why it's so complicated to maintain

and why a number of us have the ability to revise things.

quick question - what do the abbrivations mean

@JakeSymons Yes, definitely spam. The link is to a loan company whcih has nothing at all to do with the question.

fp is false positive (not spam)

tpu is true positive, blacklist user (spam)

tp is true positive (usually used for vandalism)

@trip did Tanmay send you the updated DeepSmoke model yet?

I'm assuming not, since I don't see anything running in the test room except for halflife

I had a look at the privileges. It didn't say if I could edit posts that come up on hear. I know I can edit posts I just wanted to check it was okay

@JakeSymons You should never edit spam posts

Not spam posts, like the one with the drugs link, just taking it out

Generally, we (very strongly) discourage editing spam/abusive posts, but if it's not spam, go right ahead.

@JakeSymons "Removing spam/abusive text before a question/answer is deleted can affect the automated spam/abuse detection (users will not flag it as spam/abusive). See Should Spam posts be edited?."

@JakeSymons In this case, no, because SO mods are working on those

So, If I want to edit something its best to check first here if it comes up one here

Or leave it to the mods

since I prodded them and brought that issue to their attention.

@JakeSymons yep, asking here helps first

Also, rollbacking a post will dispute all pending red flags on the post.

I think.

@JakeSymons If it is not a spam post you need to be very careful to leave a valid question when the link has been removed. It is probably better to leave that to someone more experienced ...

the Smokey contributors consist of a lot of us moderator-diamond-wielding folks so we can help determine what to do.

if it's on Ask Ubuntu though and it's not blatantly spam poke me

because it's probably on my radar to squish ;)

Yeah, lots of mods from around the network here ;)

I'll just leave it to you guys

You kinda know what your actually doing

And if it is on SuperUser poke me as I'm a mod there.

"Where diamonds are made"

Don't mean to be annoying with another question but on the list of watched key words why do we have so many?

^ this

@JakeSymons because?

I don't know why but we usually don't worry about it

Except when it breaks things

I'm a mod on Literature.SE, so you can poke me, although that's fairly rare

@JakeSymons because there's a lot of spam

^ that

I never knew there was so much spam out there

And the watch list is where we put stuff that isn't eligible for outright blacklisting </jargon>

@JakeSymons welcome to the universe :)

@Mithrandir I can't even find your line on the graph :)

across all of SE there's tons of spam

Wow

That is A LOT of spam.

yep

@JakeSymons interesting graphs
