Reply To: The Troll Slaying Brigade

OOM: “You should keep in mind that we have no idea what happens behind the scenes – we may only be seeing half of shmendrick’s posts (the others being deleted).”

If 99% of shmendrick’s approved posts are trolls, I don’t care if his total posts are approved 50% or 1% of the time. Just block him. And I thank the mods for finally doing that a few minutes ago. I personally would have done it a month ago.

…it should not be done on the public forum. We all know from experience that it can quickly spiral into some very unpleasant and messy witch-hunts.

You may be right about that. I guess it could done via email with a select few volunteers. Anywho, if it’s possible to go forward with the TSB, I would suggest you, ICOT, and Popa to take up the job among maybe two others.
