| Mission146 Administrator Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 23 Posts: 4147 | Greetings! This post is to let everyone know that I am an Administrator. I don't really have much desire to police conversations, and most don't need it. I approached Wizard about being an Administrator here (but not on WoV) just so that I could combat spam and bot posts as I am on, at least once, almost every day. Despite not being an Admin on WoV, I already have the capacity to delete clear Spam posts there, but I'll let the actual Admins (over there) decide who the bots are and are not. Mainly, I'm only going to police nearly unarguable hate speech and over-the-top personal insults. If you think a post should have action taken against it, and I haven't yet, please feel free to PM me---do keep in mind that if I have seen a post and not taken action, then chances are I won't.

I don't think that I have ever hated anyone. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a detrrent. |

Used to be, but I teed off on someone knowing I'd get demoted because I never really did much as an Admin anyway. As far as, 'Over the top,' I'll say things are right about where the line is going to be right now. There are something like 10-15 active people here and we all basically know each other, in the Forum sense, so I really don't see any reason for strict enforcement of the rules unless things get ridiculous. Like I said, I mainly just want someone who will check in daily (or close) to deal with spam or AI accounts. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want."

| missedhervee Member since: Apr 23, 2021 Threads: 96 Posts: 3103 | How can you tell if a post is AI generated, are there any "tell tales" other than the stilted form of language used? |

I'd basically say that, being new and a post that reads as an almost, but not quite, non sequitur. "War is the remedy that our enemies have chosen..let us give them all they want." William T. Sherman |
