@abigpony @cabal @elind85 Arghlebarghle. Looks like Status.net has no built-in option to require email validation to register, so I'll have to code one myself.
Monday, 18-Jul-11 05:48:56 UTC from web- Cerulean Lulamoon-Spark repeated this.

Id ban them, but @purpletinker & @elind89 says free speech policy is in effect.
-
@cabal Sorry, but f*** that. If you've got some kind of superpower, I'm sure nopony here would mind if you wielded it.
-
@lelouch If you violate US or German law, or do something that affects the domain, then I am free to come down on you like a pile of bricks. #youarewarned
-
@nvrrmbr Seven? More like thirty or forty. You have no idea.
-
@nvrrmbr I've been deleting most of the new ones before they can even post.
-
@starshine I'm not really sick of it (yet), but it's kind of getting boring.
-
@nvrrmbr I don't care if you're not sick of it. I am.
-
@haganbmj Nice. Thanks bro. If there's anything I can do for you, feel free to ask.

@starshine Nothing I can do about it. Speak with @purpletinker and/or @elind85, as they own the server. I just control email and domain functions.
-
@nvrrmbr Don't get on peoples' nerves online.
-
@starshine Yeah, I was only on for about 29 or so of those. Ineffective troll is ineffective.
-
@haganbmj Yes sir, mod.
-
@cabal Weak. @purpletinker seemed to be rather indifferent about the matter. That's not exactly reassuring, to be honest.
-
@colfax My apologies. I have simply been busy this weekend. I have zero patience for harassment or hate speech, having had the 'f word' (not 'kiwi', the OTHER f word) lobbed at me plenty of times. Point me at the offending troll and I will do what's necessary.
-
@cabal Quite so, but I don't think nvr is a bundle of sticks. Fluttershy obviously wasn't a tree (dashie).
-
@cabal That's far from the only word that's been used, and context makes all the difference.
-
@cabal Hmm... He called me slanderous words, of which I refuse to repeat, and he attempted to fake my account.
-
@starshine @purpletinker OPEN FIRE.
-
@purpletinker would you like us to leave his user profiles and posts up next time he stops by?
-
@purpletinker Thank you very much. When he comes back for me, you'll be the first to know.
-
@cabal I still need to know the current username of the troll/harasser.
-
@purpletinker @starshine Recommend deletion if account was only used to attack. Also, reports of multiple accounts (socks) being abused? Qualifies for IP ban on either server or router level.
-
@starshine Yes please. I will make it clear that this person is not welcome. Is this the same choad who was impersonating other peoples' usernames?
-
@purpletinker @ponyextreme
-
@purpletinker Every time he creates a new profile, @haganbmj and myself have been deleting him. Otherwise he'll eventually flood the timeline with profanity and the like.
-
@purpletinker The very same. @nvrrmbr, if you happen to have all the past emails from when he @'d you, maybe you should forward those to Tinker.
-
@purpletinker No, I'm afraid not, although he did use my username at one point.
-
@starshine @purpletinker He/She did flood the timeline if I recall correctly. That was when starshine called for a bit of assistance in catching the accounts sooner.
-
@starshine No, it's not him. It's someone else.
-
@purpletinker if you can isolate the IP, you may want to add it to the GUI router blacklist.
-
@nvrrmbr isn't that included as identity thief?
-
@nvrrmbr did he actually get into your account?
-
@lelouch u got it
-
@cabal No. He used the name " nvrrrnbr " which is near indistinguishable from my name.
-
@nvrrmbr And stole your avatar, filled in their profile identically, and even set the same color scheme.
-
@nvrrmbr wow...
-
@starshine Eeyup. They neglected the last name though.
-
@nvrrmbr Hmm, you're right. Weird that he'd go to all that trouble and omit that.
-
@starshine Oh well. Trolls aren't exactly... Intelligent, or timespending.
-
@nvrrmbr well if they manipulate and duplicate your profile that is spending more time than most people I see.
-
@haganbmj It was all wasted though. *sigh*
-
@cabal This is an excellent idea. Email me please how to do this?
-
@purpletinker I forwarded the two most hate-filled @-notification emails to prpltnkr (at) gmail. After you read them, you will see why the troll needs to be stopped.
-
@thegreatandpowerfultrixie2696 You would? Hmm... Okay then. Email address?
-
@purpletinker Raja. @haganbmj You too.
-
@purpletinker Silence/sandbox/whatever at least?
-
@purpletinker Would that be better than @ tagging you in a reply? ~ And should we include the user id.
-
@starshine Oh yes, of course. Silence, sandbox... just don't delete. I can't look up his email, etc. if you delete him entirely.
-
@haganbmj Eeyup, emailing me would be better than @tagging me in a reply, and eeyup, please include his username.
-
@purpletinker I kind of doubt they'd even bother filling an email in.
-
@purpletinker Mmkay, works for me. Email with username and id
-
@kingcarcinopony Hey there Carcino
-
@thegreatandpowerfultrixie2696 You will not get a kick from this one.
-
@kingcarcinopony Yeah Starlight hasn't been on rdn in quite a while ~ hasn't had a whole lot of time in general.
-
@purpletinker I always thought that was a little strange
-
@kingcarcinopony lol not sure myself man
-
@abigpony Oh, OF COURSE I would give that option.
-
@kingcarcinopony sorry mate, can't help ya there xD
-
@kingcarcinopony I'm sure she's off attending to some royal business.
-
-
@purpletinker make it not crash as much while you're at it!
-
@kingcarcinopony Status.net server is not the same as StatusNet Android client.
-
@kingcarcinopony And I'm working on a better client ;)
-
@kingcarcinopony You shall be smitten.
-
Brendan likes this.
-
@purpletinker yes, this should be implemented
-
@elind85 Oooh, its you
-
@elind85 Email validation is now required to post. (Unfortunately, this required a few very minor alterations to the StatusNet software. When we upgrade, I'll have to patch it again.)
-
@lelouch HOW ARE YOU GENTLECOLTS? *brohoof*
-
@kingcarcinopony *speaks to audience* are ya gettin the subtext here?
-
@purpletinker you may want to consider a modual for viewing IPs in posts for the mods. The logs in the server are way to spammy to make any coherent sense. #meta
