Okay, I will do that, but it's going to be a couple weeks at least.

I'm game to spam hunt if you like, but full disclosure; I won't be anywhere as consistent as the mighty u/Vulptex.

Noted! Any help is appreciated, doesn't have to be daily.

Oh, and could you like Mow my lawn? In advance. Thanks!

[–]LarrySwinger2[S] 5 insightful - 2 fun5 insightful - 1 fun6 insightful - 2 fun -  (0 children)

We are collectively mowing the lawn that is Saidit.

Something also needs to be done about the bans. The 500 errors have been getting worse. u/d3rr said it will only continue to get worse as more accounts are banned. He said he made it the wrong kind of table or something. You said you feel git is too unsafe though, so I'm not sure if I could be of any help since I don't know you in person. Do you happen to know anyone who might be able to?

[–]mut 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

Perhaps unban 100 of the oldest usernames and then delete (?) those accounts, or increase the table size. But get help with this beforehand. An alternative might be here.

[–]Vulptex 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

No, we are not deleting accounts.

My idea is to use the bans reddit has (or at least what they had before going closed-source). They exist on saidit, but currently it's impossible to use them because there's no frontend (nor API).

[–]neolib 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (5 children)

Do you mean the whole ban db table for all users, where records are like "user X is banned by user Y"? Or bans from subs?

[–]Vulptex 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (4 children)

This is only the global ban table u/d3rr set up, and according to him improperly. Sub bans come from reddit and function normally.

The solution is to use suspensions, which already exist on saidit at the backend, but there's no way to use them right now.

Ah, I only now realized that the blocking system is the new saidit feature, and doesn't exist on reddit. How big is the ban table now - hundreds of thousands of records? I mean it doesn't make sense to clear a hundred or two of old blocks for me? (430 spammers are blocked currently)

[–]Vulptex 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (2 children)

Blocking is on reddit too.

[–]neolib 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

What is this new table for then? When I block someone in /s/all clicking on "block user" does that add a new record to that table or not?

[–]Vulptex 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

It adds a relationship between your account and the one you blocked. Different table, and one that's set up properly.

[–]passionflounder 2 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 0 fun3 insightful - 1 fun -  (0 children)

Good... I'll recommence reporting Spam instead of just blocking the spammer.

[–]DELINQUENTFELON 1 insightful - 2 fun1 insightful - 1 fun2 insightful - 2 fun -  (2 children)

Eat shit.

[–]Gravi 7 insightful - 3 fun7 insightful - 2 fun8 insightful - 3 fun -  (1 child)

That is not nice, Edward!
