@JourneymanGeek Could you please use your mod tools to check if it's a possible sock puppet? Something tells me that it could be a sock puppet of a user who was recently suspended network-wide (hint: they were long-term-active on the site and had a penchant for reporting lots of security bugs).
if nothing else - I have time. Its very hard to get people who're willing to work shifts apparently + are local and the main thing I need to do is avoid getting promoted by attrition...
Sometimes I have thought that it would be nice with a site aimed at debugging code. While many of the questions would fit on Stackoverflow, this would have a slightly different approach.
I'm thinking that on SO, you typically ask for a solution. On this site you instead ask for how to debug it. ...
@forest methinks, the OP is confused.. as I presume, there is never going to be a site for "how to debug it" questions, as it leads to the same problem we face with SO today, blatant dump of unrelated code.
Code review is for working code, so that's different.
Even after the debugging effort, if the expected outcome is not achieved, and searching and researching also did not produce a result...then it might be worth posting on SO.. but "how to debug it"..nah...I don't think so.
@SonictheInclusiveHedgehog That pattern looks like it's already caught by Potentially bad keyword in body and Potentially bad keyword in answer; append -force if you really want to do that.
@JourneymanGeek well..... to be honest, I believe that if it's who Sonic thinks it is, he can easily dodge anything SE got, surely what the mod tools offer. I'm still not sure enough it's him to justify escalation of that, there's still no harm done, but just saying that whatever tools you got, I'm pretty sure they're not relevant in this case. :)
@JourneymanGeek well he did have several ways of writing when in different... periods/state of mind. We can't know for sure. Heck, even Evan has totally different writing style in MSE compared to other sites where he's not trolling. But still... better wait and keep an eye open before calling escalating.
Argh! It's too late, a hundred particpants have submitted their entries before me. I think I should use a Time Machine and travel back in time and write something for the contest. Speaking of which, this reminds me of my good friend. (Not Josh, another one).
Once upon a time, there lived a fun...
@JourneymanGeek Or nuke it now. You're the moderator, we rely on your judgement. I've had R/A flags declined by Shog9 where he left me message telling me he understood my concern. I can live with that but I'm not sure if every r/a flagger will be that lenient
@ShadowWizard Before GDPR, you had to be 13 for stuff like Facebook accounts etc. You weren't of legal age, but there were certainly regulations centered around that age. Now it's mostly 16.
There's age of consent, age of majority, and then various ages for drinking/smoking, gun ownership (even differs for the type of gun), voting, driving...
Most of the time people mean age of consent and age of majority, but it's still all so convoluted that it never makes sense. Fukin laws, man.
