In reply to the discussion: We are now accepting new volunteers to serve on the MIR Team from December 2020 - March 2021 [View all]Disaffected
(5,193 posts)21. I'd like to volunteer but am not quite clear on how it works:
The OP states:
"Members of the MIR Team are provided with tools to delete spam posted by people who have had their posting privileges revoked,.."
Question - how can people who have had their posting privileges revoked post anything? Do they try to sneak in under a new user name or use some other sort of subterfuge? If so, how would a MIR member detect it?
The OP also states MIRs are empowered to revoke posting privileges for disruptive folks which I understand but am wondering if it is done by majority vote or some other procedure?
Thanks
