@Behaviour wat
user259867
@bjb568 I think this change means the end of flag weight, but I may be wrong.
@Frank There's no "i" in "denial"
@Behaviour I don't think so.
@Doorknob冰 I don't think so.
user259867
@bjb568 "some sort of flag weight.... No, this is gone, and not replaced with anything that we can see. (As far as I know.)" -- Bill the Lizard
@Doorknob冰 are you lonely?
00:05
@Behaviour THIS IS CONFUSING
UGHUGHUGH ME NO WANNA EDIT NO MOAR
user259867
status-confused
there's a flag weight to order the flags (first those that has high weight) but it's hidden on all UI's @bjb @beh
"@beh" :P
@Doorknob冰 didn't say there was
00:09
@Braiam If you're sure, rollback.
user259867
Better yet, edit to update again.
... dunno what post you all are talking about
@Frank yes you did
nope

A: What is the difference between disputed and declined flags?

bfavarettoDeclined flag: the flag has been reviewed by a moderator who did not agree with you. Disputed flag: one or more non-moderators disagreed with you. A common cause is a Looks Good review. There is no flag weight anymore.

00:11
@Frank YES, YOU DID
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAH!

@Doorknob冰 nope

00:19
@Braiam IDK if it's right
user259867
00:31
I edited it a bit more, to make the whole thing flow better.
@Behaviour so just the description for a disputed SPAM flag is missing
user259867
If I flag something as spam, but it's deleted by a mod not as spam (they simply delete), is the flag disputed or helpful?
@Behaviour The mod would have to explicitly decline the flag, I believe. So it would be declined/disputed
That bit me once when I tried to just delete something with a spam flag on it, the 100 rep penalty kicked in without me explicitly touching the spam flag
@Behaviour helpful
here, let's test it
00:35
That feel when you figure out how to solve the thing you've spent all day googling
That feeling of shame when you realize how simple it is and stupid you are
@UndotheSnowman no need to test, there's a recent MSO post about an audit where someone flagged as spam, the OP deleted and it was marked as helpful
@Braiam right, that was the OP.
user259867
@UndotheSnowman I flagged as spam. :)
okay, deleting it without explicitly touching the spam flag
checks behaviour flag
00:38
that marks it helpful, but the spam penalties kicked in
you got -100 rep?
@Braiam it's a meta post, so no. But I know the penalty kicked in
user259867
But it was your own post....
just undelete and dismiss the spam flag
@Behaviour Don't think it matters here
user259867
00:39
I can also flag that question if you don't want to keep it around. :)
Now if I retroactively dismiss that flag...
gah where'd the button go? :/
inb4 FR that selfdelete post with spam flag shouldn't be marked it as helpful
ah there
there, killed the penalty
And that undeleted the post
user259867
Now the flag is disputed.
really?
user259867
00:40
Yes, I refreshed the flag summary page and "helpful" changed to "disputed".
So there's your answer
user259867
I forgot what the question was.
How to get a disputed SPAM flag
@Behaviour disputed if the mod screws up and accidentally leaves the flag and deletes the post, then clears the spam flag, declined if they decline it before deleting. Helpful if they delete and just leave it.
user259867
@UndotheSnowman I have a disputed spam flag [perhaps my mistake] on this meta post; what happened to it? (I don't have 10K).
user259867
00:44
It's the one of my 221 spam flags on meta that's not helpful.
@Behaviour I don't have shiny mod tools here to see the timeline, but my guess is that it got deleted manually, then the spam flag was invalidated, then it was manually deleted again.
The user is still around
It probably shouldn't be
Pulsa Murah, Indonesia

I think that's what happened, you'll need someone with more power than me to verify
thanks for the clarification, I was curious for a while, I have to leave now ... cu
Fake parenting kitten hunts werewolves!
user259867
And now Parenting is in your list of sites above User Experience. Found your true calling.

@Behaviour Gah! Will fix.

Should I ask that on UX?
Balancing page speed to user content to site information.
user259867
01:04
Too broad.
Ok, good question then.
Will replace parenting post.
QUIT UPVOTING IT!
user259867

You can disassociate yourself from the post, you know.
Why would I want to do that? :P

Q: How much information should be given on the front page?

bjb568On the front page, you must strike a balance between site information, stuff that would make the user want to stay, and page speed (a larger page takes longer to serve/download/render and I imagine usually increases cognitive load). I have a site which is largely made up of user contributed cont...

@Behaviour But... but... shouldn't the computer just know what to do? It's a computer!
I don't remember more cases that result in a disputed flag @beh, but this is the most accurate you can get meta.stackexchange.com/a/95277/213575
user259867
I added a link to "the difference between" posts, because one question naturally leads to the other.
user259867
@hichris123 Yeah, of course it should. The result of running a program can be only one of two things: (1) everything works as expected; (2) it doesn't work! help plz!
user259867
@Braiam It could be his own content, though. The user appears to be a contributor to that project.
@Behaviour but that content is licensed to himself or to the project? who gave permission to copy it? Does it has attribution? it's helpful for SO?
Strange, when did SE's Markdown parser start recognizing ordered lists that don't start with 1?

user259867
"0 units" shouldn't be displayed, really.
I search, but I'm really terrible at knowing what words to search for :C
user259867
@Frank There's an observation bias, though: those who searched and found what they wanted did not post a question, so they are not on your radar.

That means it might have been restarting when the questions were posted.

Smokey was alive at 04:27, when he replied to /hats. Just his/our luck, I suppose.

It started up again at 04:34:47. Add in some time to load stuff...
Borkey?
user259867
No, apparently just rebooting. Not clear what made it reboot at that time, though.
user259867
@ProgramFox added auto-ignore to all-caps reports today, and we haven't had an all-caps report since. Maybe there's a bug there that causes Smokey to crash?
Nah, it reboots once per hour because the websockets have issues occasionally.
Huh
NAA!

What would be a good site to post an all-caps question at? I'm thinking Ask Ubuntu, it should be right at home there.
Go for it!

That was early in the life of the site. Everyone's happy to get questions then.

08:58
@bummi i did other on one and rude/offensive on the others..
@TGMCians custom does not cause auto deletion, and it might take weeks until an employee will take a look in the flags so better use "real" reason to have the spam auto nuked.
thx, sorry did not read enough :(
i think these are spam too.. here and here

@hichris123 It has a reason, because the all-caps posts crashed my local copy, without any logs registered.

Heisenbug: Lose 5 sanity. Skip a turn. Return this card to the deck and shuffle the deck.
@TGMCians @ShadowWizard is there any such option ?
09:23
... so a potential reason might be because there's a typo.
eugh
@TGMCians meta.SE is the only site where users with 1 rep can comment everywhere, so there is no spam option on comments since spam in comments is pretty non-existant on every site except meta.SE. in any off cases of spam on another site you would just flag as other and explain.. not sure what the official policy is for comment spam on meta.SE... it's easy to catch if the spammer posts a spam question and then comments on same question.. but not so easy when they only do a comment on an old post
