This post is rude and unnecessary. Vulptex does a good job here.

I agree. I like Vulptex a lot. Really good contributions to the community, and has been fair with me.

I feel like this is wrong attacking him or her like that.

Vulptex dosent for ideology down my throat. Has always need nice to me.

I don’t like this attack on Vulptex.

Hear, hear. Vulptex seems like a good dude. He's certainly doing a lot for this site.

Refusing to ban the accounts of the bone conduction spammer, yet happily banning other users for different rule violations is not doing a good job

I don't know about refusing to ban the accounts, they're constantly making new ones. Either way it's a false equivalence.

I also made a ton of extra anti-spam tools: https://github.com/CrystalVulpine/saidit/commits/master

It's not my fault that none of them have been applied yet.

No, it is not a false equivalence. It is not acceptable to selectively enforce the rules and have no consequences for users with 100's of spam posts, but then choose to ban me

They have nothing to lose by getting those accounts banned. In fact many of them just make one post on an account and hop to the next one.

It's not so much that there's "no consequences" as "this is the best way to deal with the problem".

Perhaps, but it couldn't hurt to ban them either though right? I see some spammers post something, then log in a month later to keep spamming.

Saidit's ban system is really messed up right now. When you try to ban an account you have like a 4 in 5 chance of getting a 500 error, which then breaks saidit for a minute, and then the ban doesn't apply until you successfully ban or unban someone else.

Besides, it's not like I don't ban spammers. But if it's a spammer I've banned a hundred times before, and its username is no loss, it's not worth it.

I implemented a bunch of extra spam tools, which could be used to deal with this problem much more effectively. If the owner doesn't apply them it's not my fault.

Do you have any evidence that the rules are being selectively enforced?

He admits it, read his comments in this post, he doesnt deny it

[–]iamonlyoneman 3 insightful - 2 fun3 insightful - 1 fun4 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

that's not how admissions work

Dude, Vulptex has been really good to me, and fair.

Please just don’t post porn.

I hate to agree with you but vulptex needs to go

Perhaps I can take his place
