how a mod changes a users name:

step1:  suspend user account for 45 weeks
step2: user makes new account with a new name

confluxepic · Answer

That process is not very efficient. @amistre64

anonymous · Answer

No, it is not.

thesmartone · Answer

And considering you got to 69, that will take you a while to reget using a new account.

amistre64 · Answer

its the only way to get past 100 :)  if you have 2 accounts at 60, they equal to 120 right?

e.mccormick · Answer

@amistre64 Nope.  That suspend and make new does not work.  If you suspended them at all, they can't make a new account until the suspension is over.  Suspensions are now temp IP bans for signups of the same duration as the suspension...

amistre64 · Answer

oh thats an improvement.

amistre64 · Answer

wonder how well that works with proxy IPs

thesmartone · Answer

^ ikr, that means that poor user turing banned for like forever will never ever come back ._.

e.mccormick · Answer

Not very well...  LOL.  But it does slow down the abuse.

amistre64 · Answer

makes me think i should rethink my 'symbolic of our displeasure' approach now that it may have some meaning to it.

e.mccormick · Answer

Yah, well, I still permasuspend the hardcore trolls and porn linkers...

amistre64 · Answer

yeah, they dont need to be here to start with i agree

thesmartone · Answer

Well, RIP Long Time Offenders

e.mccormick · Answer

I figure that if a hardcore troll is proxy jumping, each perma suspend nocks out one more proxy.

thesmartone · Answer

True, unless they like to travel around and go to each starbucks and mcdonalds near them and create thousands of accounts before breaking the law.

e.mccormick · Answer

I have made other suggestions for that...

amistre64 · Answer

i still like the redirect to the "OS is broken for now" page

The one that was banned for centuries, by Jay's suggestion, which Turing agreed to and suspended that user for  9^2hundred something hours, when only that user's great-great-great-great+ child can access the account again?
