Poll: Facemash #4 !ubuntu !gnu
about a year ago from web- Carlos Augusto ARES and Super Foods Man like this.
- Winston Smith and Solar repeated this.

@identicats STOP SPAMMING US!!! SPAMMER!!!!
-
@identicats SPAMMER!!!
-
Just block him like the rest of us. #dontfeedthetrolls
-
@pete @rajitsingh If that’s the polls issue, I suggest asking Evan to block polls from groups. That way, it doesn’t pollute members’ streams
-
Wouldn't matter if it was a poll or not. Replies from the group will show up.
-
True. I've never reported a user because "I don't like them," but if the consensus is that he's a nuisance perhaps it should be discussed.
-
Better phrasing: If it's a determined troll, they'll find a way to piss you off ;) #tootiredtoreadorwrite
-
@pete I'd blocked him ages ago. But no respite from poll spam.
-
@pete True, Attaching the group to a reply pulls in the whole conversation, but in this case, a user is sending several polls to groups.
-
@pete Indeed. :-)
-
@pete I think this is the dictionary definition of "consensus" xD
-
The more people I hear complaining about this individual, the more I wonder at the fact that they haven't been banned.
-
Has this really not been brought up to @evan? I am very hesitant to take this stepand would rather keep it at the group admin level...
-
... but he's obviously been a nuisance to more than just 1 or 2 groups, so I don't know what to do. (Sorry @evan if this is inappropriate)
-
Polls or the user in question? ;)
-
@johnnynull @pete @rajitsingh Oh, no. Anything but surveymonkey.
-
@johnnynull @rajitsingh @pete @march If polls blocked from groups (give groupadmins ability to override), that would help immensely.
-
Let me buy you a drink.
-
@pete in a way, it was, earlier today: https://identi.ca/notice/93875841
-
Please clarify what your poll is about? There is no question here... How about a "What do you think about this, or that?" Won't vote.
-
@pete I am against blocking/silencing @identicats - nobody should be blocked service-wide just because sbdy else doesn't like his dents...

@pete ...it's the polls that need to be fixed, so they don't spam every nonweb client, and as for @identicats - if you don't like them...
-
@pete ...you can always ignore their messages in your client. They are not abusing the service so they don't deserve being blocked.
-
@pete Think about it - messages from @identicats are only one in a few days - it's the answers to the polls that are annoying, and...
-
@pete ...does anybody have any control over how many ppl answer a poll? No. Maybe @identicats isn't aware that posting polls ends in...
-
@pete ...a stream of useless messages for lost of ppl. And calling them names and shouting isn't going to change that.
-
@cyberkiller Now that I'm not being a bull in the chyna shop, I agree with you.
-
what is Facemash?
-
1 vote against @identicats
-
He does know, though. He was already warned about this, silenced. He deleted his account and made a new one to unsilence himself.
-
And he's ignored every request to stop and just continues doing polls. identicats's behavior more closely matches malice, not ignorance.
