How about your main one? Grin

One extra number will do better job.

Shush. He is hiding behind a bush in fortnite, desperately waiting for season 5. Tongue

Don't reveal his spot.

If there are only 3 global moderators left that would explain why the spam problem has got so much worse recently. I've noticed reports staying unhandled a lot longer or indefinitely the last few weeks. The other staff can only moderate the boards they are assigned to and nuke Newbies. The legions of Jr. Member spammers seem to be left to their own devices at the moment.

I have seen grue and SaltySpitoon to be inactive for more than a while now(inactive as in spending less time on the forum, moderating). So the absence hasn't affected the spam to increase. Although, I could argue that with the launch of the new autoreply bot,which might have made the spam problem much worse than it already is.

They're not 'fired' per se, but as with most staff if you become inactive after x amount of time you usually have your mod status removed. Grue and Salty haven't really been active moderating for quite some time and both their mod payments have been zero for the past two months and grue's even longer than that, so that means they handled zero reports and probably why they were de-modded.

Please tell me, if I put a local rule on not allowing digaran to say anything in particular threads of mine and if he does, will he be banned?

Its sad that grue and Salty have been de-modded, hope they are alright IRL, and just not leave bitcointalk forever.

They were pretty inactive from what I can tell. I'm sure theymos would have them back in an instant if they could dedicate their time again. Both were top notch in my opinion. Probably better to promote existing staff than hire new ones to fill in the slot. Thanks for the endorsement though Tongue

I haven't seen much of grue, but I can say Salty was a great mod. Most of the staff(non global mods) are either inactive themselves or are busy managing their own boards. A few boards need moderators, but that's not gonna happen. But hey there is no harm in self promoting my alts. Roll Eyes

Myself, Pugman, and yourself used emojis in our replies. 100% confirmed alt accounts.

True story.

It would be better if we could have the same system with default trust members, many of them are inactive, IMO they should be excluded from DT system after being inactive for some time. speaking of trusting people to moderate, we could really use some help regarding a few rogue DT1 members. because IMO trust system is more important than moderators, if mods do something wrong people could spot them very quickly but we don't know what is going on with some DT members and their inside deals.

Not true. xetsr was a great DT member, he has hundreds of legit tags, if he is removed, scammers would be free to scam again(not everyone reads untrusted feedback). If you have a problem with DT1 members, make another thread about it, tell your ~~bullshit~~ insights to theymos. I am sure, he will reply to you the first thing he sees such a thread. Grin

And trust system is not important than moderators, and if you don't know why, you should leave.

That would significantly decrease the weight they've given in their feedback, which is not necessary even if those members are inactive. I would say that as long as it's not suspected that the account has changed hands, no action is necessary. In other words, just because someone hasn't posted here in a while doesn't mean they're not trusted anymore. On the other hand, if an employee fails to do work for X amount of time, it's only logical that they should be let go.

I remember, when Zepher was removed from DT, all his tags became untrusted and I believe Ecuamobi/Lauda/some other DT member had to spend their time re-tagging all those who Z had tagged.

Why do you try and derail every thread into an off-topic discussion about DT?

Why else? He is a DT investigator. His ~~bullshit~~ opinions are right on spot and always right.

Why do you let him derail the thread? Wink

Its my mistake, didn't put a localrule for not letting digaran reply. I apologize for that. Embarrassed
