Re: delays in deleting posts recently (particularly overnight)

Would you give consideration to an automatic deletion system when a post is reported by a set number of different posters?

It could then be assessed and reinstated if it turns out all the MNers who were offended/belive it broke Talk Guidelines were all universally wrong. But tbh I doubt that would happen much - as a rule, when single posts get multiple bangs on the report button, it's for bloody good reason.

It seems a slow and laborious process that the wanky posts have to sit there (sometimes for hours in the night) before an HQer gets up and deletes 'em.

I would think a system of, say, 20 reports equals auto-deletion followed by a review when HQ see it, would be a good idea.

But I could well be wrong :)

Never! Wink
Agree that it would be open to abuse.

We are always open to any suggestions and if this sort of thing keeps happening, we will have to have a think. We have staff overseas who do catch this sort of thing quickly most of the time but with the Easter hols we were a little slow of the mark on this one.

Thank you for the suggestion and to those who reported, much appreciated.
