Most mod tools can show IPs by post, should be easy to identify socks unless they are meticulous with VPNs.

But last night, all they had to do was read the OP. There was no reason to delete the thread and indefinitely ban Bender based on "wanting the rest of the story".

It comes off like moderation has no supervision, no consequences for not following the established rules, and they and their internet friends are above the law.

Being a mod is a time consuming thankless job full of drama. It is also an unpaid volunteer position. Which is why we get the "never left home town becomes an abusive local cop" kind of personality a lot.

Na man don't ask him anything. This is the OB, as in outdoors board. Liucci couldn't negotiate his way past a cattle guard if his life depended on it.
Leave him to his board.

I think the mods too often rely on the flags and trust that people flagged something correctly and not maliciously as was with tikka.

Yep. We should also be able to click on the stars and see which users starred the posts. There's examples of the same couple of individuals and all their sock accounts leading fake internet mobs. It would be much easier to identify and point out if you could see the same sock accounts starring all the same users.

So just lock it and read. Why ban anyone before they know the facts?

I used to be a mod on a very large site. People were selected from the forums they frequented by other mods over the board(s) they were asked to help out on. I always kept up with the boards I was over, as the rest of the mods did, so it was easy to know who caused problems and what topics would generate issues. Yes, there were aberrations but it never took too much reading to find the issue.RCR06 said:DatTallArchitect said:

Let's say a mod logs on and has a bunch of flags and 100 posts. Do you let things keep going or stop it and then catch up on the thread? Fortunately, I didn't have to make that call. In hindsight it's easy to mae that call, but in the moment maybe a little bit more difficult.
