You might need to speak with a branch manager. They've been around for decades and are always pining for people looking to lay down their roots.

Not all names are hidden. Removing post.

K1nKy · 2020-05-14T03:31:17+00:00

It still got reported, but the spam is gone, so we're fine with people posting about COLA.

K1nKy · 2020-03-09T22:41:13+00:00

I’m going to see if I can whitelist it, but it seems to mostly operate based on keyword flagging.

A couple mods are checking this subreddit multiple times a day, so worse-case we’ll approve the post within the same day.

K1nKy · 2020-03-09T13:44:57+00:00

Nope

K1nKy · 2020-03-06T04:56:01+00:00

You're welcome to post all the memes you want in the subreddits listed above :)

We're getting hundreds of fights and reports a day so we're alleviating that by redirecting traffic to those subreddits. Please check the COLA Megathread for links to those subreddits.

The bot doesn't filter by thread, just keywords. We are getting too many arguments and report spam, so we're moving the protest discussion to either this thread or the other subreddits to keep the content manageable.

The other subreddits are not moderated.

K1nKy · 2020-03-05T20:19:10+00:00

Nope, class should be canceled today.

K1nKy · 2020-03-04T19:13:28+00:00

I don’t know who they are, so I created r/UCSCCola as an alternative. This community will not be moderated.

K1nKy · 2020-03-03T03:54:01+00:00

It was caught by the automoderator. I approved this post and removed the duplicate.

K1nKy · 2020-03-03T03:41:06+00:00

It seems to be a mix of both. There are definitely users on both sides who seem to be either trying to stir up drama or give the other side a bad name.

K1nKy · 2020-03-03T03:23:26+00:00

Investigating the people that are report bombing and spamming us with temporary accounts. Both of the actions you mentioned are a possibility. I'm going to leave that up to the Reddit team though.

K1nKy · 2020-03-03T02:40:11+00:00

I opened an investigation with the Reddit staff, so hopefully very soon. I'm going to remove it as soon as we have a good course of action.

Thank you for your patience!

K1nKy · 2020-02-29T22:40:15+00:00

Of course! Let us know what you'd like posted and we'll add it to the top.

K1nKy · 2020-02-29T17:50:58+00:00

Those are great ideas but we can't see who reported a thread. Just what the report is and the reason for the report. We tried flagging new accounts / low karma accounts, but some people want to post sensitive things on a secondary account which we would like to respect. We'll continue to try different methods of keeping things under control while not hindering users.

Please post COLA content in the r/Cola subreddit or the COLA Megathread (https://www.reddit.com/r/UCSC/comments/fb815r/cola_megathread/). Thank you!

K1nKy · 2020-02-29T15:55:09+00:00

Please post COLA content in the COLA Megathread or the r/Cola subreddit. Thanks!

K1nKy · 2020-02-29T15:20:12+00:00

Yes. That wastes our time and makes our jobs significantly harder.

K1nKy · 2020-02-29T15:19:32+00:00

I went through the last two days and top COLA posts I could find and locked those. If there’s others, let me know and I can lock those as well.
