I know the mod report system isn’t perfect, but if you are submitting a mod report that alleges a user is a previously banned user trying to evade a ban, please message me (or us) explaining why you think or how you know that. If the post isn’t breaking any of the other rules, the only piece of evidence I have to go on is that the account is new and submitting a post, but we can’t use that as sole criteria for identifying whether someone is or isn’t evading a ban.

      …yeah. I added a filter in Tesseract to automatically hide “drive-by” posts for accounts that are less than a week old who self-delete themselves. Can’t stand that.

        Neat.

        I use Alexandrite on desktop, and don’t use Tesseract because I’m banned from the !tesseract@dubvee.org community despite to my knowledge never having posted there. Alexandrite does at least show if a user is deleted (or banned), with some bold red text, so the culprits are easy to spot if nothing else.
