Seems this guy is All Spam... for 2 1/2 weeks

Can we get a better way to remove followed posts? I'm looking through my following pages and I'd like to be able to un-follow from there without going into each post.

@ineeditpls - I agree with you, the confirmation thread seems to be of limited use as it is in need of curating with removal of solved posts. Working from the back of it, currently the last ten pages have 175/200 posts completely solved, yet still there, bloating the thread. If all these were culled the page count could be more than halved, and if all the individual links that got a green "answered" tick were greyed out or maybe even hidden, then the thread would have easier overview and maybe even encourage more usage.

@Operator - Unrelated question; Is reporting unsolvable questions with dead links by flagging them with the explanation "Dead Link" an acceptable way of having them removed?

@barelylegalfan - Good Call on Specifics, saw here & searched Just for U... recheck this post, : )

@Operator then what is the trick to get humans to confirm? I've used the confirm thread to no avail. :(

@ineedtitspls There is alot of human confirmation going on

I ask because there appears to be little to no human confirmation going on...

How does one apply to become a moderator or staff member?

@barelylegalfan at this point the auto_mod can't really be blamed. We've had an influx of new users who aren't really following the rules about tagging or gathering legitimate evidence their answer is correct with other new users who are just confirming things too quickly. The auto_mod does take into account user status, but if 10 low level users say it's good even though it's not, we've got a user issue, not a process issue. I automate IT processes for a living, and there is only so much you can automate if the users don't know how to use the process correctly.

@barelylegalfan It doesn't make mistakes. Its an algorithm. It learns, when the answer is reported, its reversed, then if the confirm was wrong.. it adds a negative point to it. And next time auto moderator requires alot more, before it can call it accept.

Auto moderator cannot make errors, its a robot. It bases its decision on user's inputs. If the confirm is added and the that users confirms were perfect in the past, then it checks the answerers statistics + some more checks -- and it makes a call. If the inputed data is wrong, then the mistake happened then, not inside the auto moderator.

But complaining, that an automated script is making errors, like its alive and making decision is...

I told you to tag the confirmer and ask for an explanation if you want to blame someone. But instead you tagged the answerer. He suggested an answer, he is not at fault it got selected as correct.

@Operator, I'm specifically pointing out that auto_mod does make mistakes. It's irrelevant saying that it's the User who makes the mistake when the AI itself is the action that tags the post as Correct. Your logic is flawed.

Any Programmer worth their salt would be constantly trying to improve their creations by utilizing mistakes as a learning tool instead of blaming it's errors on others.

@barelylegalfan We are not gonna drop a system based on 0.01% of all auto_mods actions. The system is brilliant.

Why are you attacking an AI script? You can clearly see who confirmed it manually! Why don't you tag that person and ask them directly. Auto_mod did its calculations and poked the answer, found it to be plausible and answerer and confirmer to be credible and marked it correct -- absolutely brilliant and EXACTLLY how it was designed.

Auto moderation AI doesn't make mistakes -- users who confirm wrongly do!

This post was set to correct by auto_mod but the answer is wrong. There has to be a better system than this, when ONE person automatically gets a correct by the auto_mod yet too often 3-4 ppl Confirming posts still won't get a correct until it's done manually.

@herkalurk agree

@Operator if the question cannot be answered, then we need a way to close it instead of leaving it open for others to interpret.

@danielusabia3 the question cant be answered.

@Don @Operator what else is needed in this answer to be marked as correct?
What did I miss?

The face of the actress is not visible on the gif, so the moderator reviewing your answer wasn't able to confirm it based on the two images that were available in the proof links. + It's a video question, so some sort of playable video should be there.

Moderator wasn't able to confirm the answer based on the proof provided. This one perhaps could've been accepted, but at the same time, I don't disagree with the moderator's decision either. I accepted it now, since@NinNin provided the supporting link.

Being asked for more proof isn't the same as being marked as wrong. Usually an additional detail or two will be enough to make the answer pass.

Level 4 can make threads. This is due to fact, regular inquiries were being done as threads.

You can still make a thread by making a regular post and ask it to be made into a thread. Either from here, commenting in it or having something mentioned in the title like "Thread:"

I know you state that this isn't a place to ask about posting questions, however my question isn't covered in the help section. I would like to know what level is required to make a thread post? The help section and the hint boxes for making posts don't state or acknowledge anything related to a required level, however when I attempt to make a thread I am told that I can't make threads at my current level.
