  1. (07:30:07) Acidflashback: couple of questions
  2. (07:30:15) Acidflashback: on vg
  3. (07:30:36) Acidflashback: if someone starts a new general thread, when the previous one hasn't maxed out the posts should i delete it?
  4. (07:31:06) Acidflashback: e.g. someone just made a new LoL general, but the previous one is still active and has around 400 posts
  5. (07:31:38) +VCR_Working: delete it and br the fag
  6. (07:31:48) Acidflashback: what do i put in the br?
  7. (07:31:50) +VCR_Working: 400 posts and a new thread, wtf
  8. (07:31:57) Acidflashback: lol
  9. (07:32:19) +VCR_Working: what was it...
  10. (07:32:43) Acidflashback: what should i put in the ban request field if that happens?
  11. (07:32:44) +VCR_Working: quality of posts
  12. (07:32:49) Acidflashback: cool ty
  13. (07:32:51) Acidflashback: and also
  14. (07:33:27) Acidflashback: a tripcode user is posting off topic stuff in a LoL general, and the thread basically turned into a bunch of anons flaming him and him flaming back
  15. (07:33:36) Acidflashback: should i just delete that?
  16. (07:34:12) +VCR_Working: br tripfag for offtopic
  17. (07:34:16) +VCR_Working: delete responses
  18. (07:34:24) +VCR_Working: also use the br to track down samefagging
  19. (07:34:27) Acidflashback: cool thanks
  20. (07:34:44) Acidflashback: urgh, he's not using a trip though, just a namefag
  21. (07:34:46) +VCR_Working: there are a few tripfags in /v/g notorious for it
  22. (07:34:50) +VCR_Working: */fg/
  23. (07:34:55) +VCR_Working: well, either way
  24. (07:35:19) +VCR_Working: ...wait
  25. (07:35:24) +VCR_Working: who is the namefag in question
  26. (07:35:30) Acidflashback: potato chan
  27. (07:35:35) Acidflashback: https://boards.4chan.org/vg/res/28642745#p28642745
  28. (07:35:35) +VCR_Working: who now
  29. (07:35:43) Acidflashback: pretty much all this thread is him
  30. (07:36:05) +VCR_Working: you're checking the br trails?
  31. (07:36:20) Acidflashback: sorry i don't know what you mean by that
  32. (07:36:39) +VCR_Working: oh right
  33. (07:36:46) +VCR_Working: let me explain a handy little feature
  34. (07:36:48) +VCR_Working: basically
  35. (07:36:53) +VCR_Working: if you ban request someone
  36. (07:37:14) +VCR_Working: and ban request another post by that someone, you can see if they have any pending brs on that ip
  37. (07:37:26) Acidflashback: oh awesome
  38. (07:37:30) +VCR_Working: we may not be able to see ips but we can use that to nail samefaggers
  39. (07:37:36) +VCR_Working: let me demonstrate itt
  40. (07:37:42) Acidflashback: that's really cool
  41. (07:38:10) +VCR_Working: i br'd one post
  42. (07:38:32) +VCR_Working: now do some quick br checks on the rest of the posts
  43. (07:38:51) +VCR_Working: OKAY OKAY
  44. (07:38:53) +VCR_Working: hold it
  45. (07:39:06) +VCR_Working: let me explain one last thing lmao
  46. (07:39:08) Acidflashback: *holds it
  47. (07:39:30) +VCR_Working: please do not ban request more than once, unless the block expires
  48. (07:39:44) +VCR_Working: it clutters the ban request queue
  49. (07:39:55) +VCR_Working: so just br one post
  50. (07:40:00) Acidflashback: but i can just open the ban request window and it will say if they've been requested already
  51. (07:40:03) +VCR_Working: and delete the rest
  52. (07:40:04) +VCR_Working: yeah
  53. (07:40:07) +VCR_Working: exactly
  54. (07:40:07) Acidflashback: awesome
  55. (07:40:08) +VCR_Working: just
  56. (07:40:15) +VCR_Working: don't go crazy with them on one person
  57. (07:40:27) Acidflashback: gotcha
  58. [...]
  59. (07:43:48) +VCR_Working: well your primary tool should be deletion
  60. (07:43:54) +VCR_Working: and even that should be used sparingly
  61. (07:44:10) Acidflashback: right
  62. (07:44:11) +VCR_Working: the main use for brs is to stop troublemakers and such
  63. (07:44:25) Acidflashback: so this post for example
  64. (07:44:26) Acidflashback: https://boards.4chan.org/vg/res/28635483#p28643002
  65. [...]
  66. (07:46:14) +VCR_Working: be wary tho, they're somewhat attentive in the threads, so they'll know if there's a janitor lurkin about
  67. (07:46:15) +VCR_Working: lol no
  68. (07:46:18) +VCR_Working: it's not you
  69. (07:47:35) Acidflashback: what's the policy regarding posting kpop stars in sc2 threads?
  70. (07:47:48) +VCR_Working: okay that's out of my realms of knowledge
  71. (07:47:59) Acidflashback: fair enough
  72. (07:48:07) +VCR_Working: inquire serwind or anikitan about it
  73. (07:48:11) Acidflashback: will do
  74. (07:48:19) +VCR_Working: all i know is kpopfags are cancerous
  75. (07:48:24) Acidflashback: yep
  76. (07:49:01) +AoC: last I checked, ban evaders that spam non-game related content and ruined SC2G being about games
  77. (07:49:07) +AoC: push them into /mu/
  78. (07:49:16) Acidflashback: so delete?
  79. (07:49:43) +VCR_Working: yeah
  80. (07:49:50) +VCR_Working: i would at any rate
  81. (07:49:58) +VCR_Working: KILL EVERYTHING
