I would be curious to find out.  See if liking more of them seems to cause more of them to show up in your feed. Thanks!

I "like" probably 90% of your Traces posts and I see several posts everyday. Great site.

  • I don't understand why a bunch of miserable cunts come here to fight about politics. It's a sports and bullshit message board not a fucking political board. Maybe I should just make another site calle

  • I have gone from over 100 rep points to under 30 in just a day just for my opinions in the Kavanaugh thread. The negging of unpopular abc conservative opinions is out of control and sucks ass

  • The CR is on a level like I have never seen.  If you disagree with them, no matter how logical or articulate your statement is, you are negged to oblivion.  No way would I post there because nobody in

One thing I did to help me see more posts was to go to the Traces page, click on "Notifications", then select "See First".  Any recent posts will then be at the top of your newsfeed when ever you log in.  It's not perfect, but it at least reminds me about the page, which I will then click on and go view the posts I missed.

I hit like in the first post I saw and then over the course of the evening I saw just about a dozen from the last 3-4 days 

I went on the Traces page and went down and liked as many posts as I could. Hopefully that brings it back into my feed.

But I never interact with ESPN, Barstool,Deadspin and the likes but they show in my feed everyday. I guess they are paying to have this done?

So we have a troll problem, he keeps coming back. I don't want to have to rate limit new users, but can you guys think of any other way to combat this lunatic that posts like 50 times in 2 hours?
Can you lift the neg rep limit we can give out to individual users? Crowd source him every time within minutes.

Here are some ideas:

1. Rate limit new users. Yes, I know: it’s the thing you don’t want to do. However, it doesn’t have to be permanent.

2. Look into making the crowd sourcing threshold lower.

3. Is there an ability to tie rate-limiting to rep and/or a user’s history of reported posts?

4. Is ghosting an option? 

5. Multi-factor auth?

6. Any plugins out there that can help cross-reference poster IPs with suspicious proxy IPs? 

7. Make Hank Scorpio moderator. 

8. Write the fool a strongly worded note.

~~~

What type of email addresses is the fool using to register so many accounts?  Is it one of those free/throwaway email proxies? 

Never shows up in my feed anymore. Sucks.

Limit new posters to 10 per day for the first week unless paid subscriber.

Increase crowdsourcing ability.

The only logical answer.

Looks like he might be back and using the name War.

He was smooth talking ghost before that and trolled the fuck out of the Super Bowl thread. He was finally scrubbed clean though.

Looks like he hasn't cleared the crowdsourcing threshold.

i will take a look at this over lunch today, but i think he passed the crowdsource threshold, but then was posrepped back into unbanned mode? i don't know how the software works, i just click the clicks.

okay, i'm going to need a better example of fuckery here. 

Why do you need examples? Look at his rep. 

 

Dude shits all over each and every baseball thread throughout the season. He's the biggest stain on the baseball board.

Pokemon is Purgatory AKA ADHD AKA too many other banned handles to even mention.  

 

I was wondering wtf he was shit posting about

He's back as Jason Jason Jason, which is his actual first name.

 

You know, generally I wouldn't rep you out of the negs since this is kind of doxxy. 

But this guy is such a raging fuck-stick I'll make an exception. 

You ignoramusous realize it's jerking off to every post it reads about itself here ?  Ignore it, it'll tire of it, and move on.

I never get these connections so I could be wrong but Kyle comes at the issues with such venom he (or she) reminds me of mini baller/spit that blood.  But what do I know?

You’re not wrong: 

the person should not be doing their psychosis therapy on public boards...

No, it won't.  You don't understand its mindset.

He is also the poster named ADHD, who I thought had been banned but apparently has not been, since he negged me 15 times yesterday.

Would a slightly used wreath make things any better?

i agree that he's either a total troll or an epic moron, but from what i've seen he hasn't done anything to deserve an ip ban. if he is trolling he's pretty good at coming off as sincere, and isn't overtly trolling. i tend to lean towards epic moron, but it wouldn't surprise me if he was trolling. 

Edited by Goo Punch

Does trolling require insincerity of a position? Bc sometimes folks get called that and I actually believe they are sincere in their awful positions.

You know I think you’re right D, and I think you and troph bring up a larger point. 

I know that this isn’t a gov ran site but it seems we follow the outline of the 1st amendment. Trolling is bullshit but unless proved should put up with.

Did you bet on OU? Cuz we didn't beat them much back then. 

I'll have to take Jason's side here if in fact you did bet on OU.
