Did you guys seriously screen a comment re: Holtby and playoff goaltending just because... it was kind of mean and snotty (like a large amount of comments on meme are)? Otherwise it's just a comment pointing out a factual inaccuracy? Some of the reasoning behind what has and hasn't been getting screened seems frustratingly opaque, at best.
I screened that comment because the person writing it sounded a lot like the main meme troll, and I thought there was a good chance they might rear their head after that comment moderation thread. Unfortunately, there's a possibility that some non-trolls will get frozen/screened for sounding similar to the troll, because we have no sure way to identify anyone on this meme.
As always, if you have a question about why something was or wasn't screened, you can ask us here.
The downjune hateboner nonnie is at it again. FWIW, I know they c/p stuff that they post here to then leave as hate on the author's fics. http://dekedangle-rpfanon.dreamwidth.org/6849.html?thread=31760321#cmt31760321
This kinkmeme wank is getting a little out of hand, and it looks like someone from meme followed the link and left a nasty, inappropriate comment on the fill being discussed.
Thank you, to you (and the other nonnies reporting). It's unfortunate that someone tries to abuse the meme for their own purposes, and we definitely want to screen them.
I've noticed that several top-level comments have gotten deleted, like the first fandom goggles thread this post and the first free agency thread comment. What's up with that?
There's been a troll or trolls sandwiching troll-comments into high-level comments, though I just checked and in top-comment view nothing's screened or frozen. There aren't multiple fandom goggles or free agency threads, which I would still see, even if they were screened. So I'm not quite sure what you're referring to.
ETA - And we never delete posts. We freeze or screen them.
Would you consider not unscreening comments here that talk about who the troll is trashing, especially if you're not going to respond to the comments? Like "troll going after so-and-so again." You screen it over there, but then you keep a public record here in the modcalls.
Maybe I'm being too sensitive. Just a thought. Thanks for considering, and for all your continued hard work.
We do respond to the vast majority of comments and I was planning on responding to at least the first one; it's been a busy morning for me. I will discuss not unscreening comments with the Other Mod, but I do think it's good for the mods to be as transparent as possible and for nonnies to know that their comments were seen and addressed, since there's no way to privately respond to an anon comment. I also don't think the record left here is extraordinarily harmful, because the linked comments are no longer visible and I don't see how they can be used by the troll. I don't think they can do much with content-less screening requests.
Additionally, sometimes people ask us not to unscreen comments, and we don't.
Please screen this comment: http://dekedangle-rpfanon.dreamwidth.org/6849.html?thread=32384961#cmt32384961 -- someone has disclosed the first name of Patrick Kane's accuser
There were a bunch of posts alerting the mods, but I'll just unscreen the one. Thanks everyone for contacting. The doxxing came from someone using a proxy IP, so we can assume the worst intentions.
There is not a Kane ban at this moment, no, but there have been related wanks in the past day, after meme has been relatively wank-free for quite some time, and I just don't trust that it's all an innocent coincidence.
We're screening a troll right now, so if you're not that person and you were screened, it was because your IP(s) seemed like that person's. We're going to keep screening for the troll indefinitely because we want them to leave. If your IP is very similar to ones they've been known to use/are using, you might keep getting caught, but we don't automatically ban any fic discussion except for troll fics.
Lots of low-level shittiness today.
As always, if you have a question about why something was or wasn't screened, you can ask us here.

Your probably on top of it - this thread & tone is really unnecessary - could you consider screening bits?

Highlights include more WAG wank and speculating that an anon defending downjune must be snickfic.
