How.....

Edit: The blind can see.

we had this in 3.6.x so are there no changes in the hack for the current release ?

I dont think so.

title: perfect.

thank you, sir.

marked as installed.

Does this hack cause any httpd load issues? I installed this just two days ago and have been having server issues since.

No.

o_O Exelent mod. I install!!!!

absolutely one of the BEST mods ever!! Thanks Paul M. :)

wow this will going to be fun lol... -Devil Laugh-

Installed the hack on 3.7.2 with no problems.
It runs perfectly and several tests using dupe accounts shows that this is not only customizable for optimal performance, but it's freaking hilarious!

*cough*

I mean, it has proven a extraordinarily useful tool in handling those members who know how to push just enough to consistently irritate or manipulate the staff and/or community but haven't done anything that we can specifically BAN them for.

This hack totally allows the moderating staff to continue doing things as they always have done but allows the administrative staff the ability to alleviate the stress and burnout caused after having to fight back and forth with trolls.

And possibly a suggestion to other admins installing this hack.. on both my forums we've kept the existence of this mod hidden from the community - even from our Super Moderators. Only the Admins know of it and have ability to move members into the usergroup so the effectiveness of the mod is superb. The purpose for this is obvious but easily missed at first. If the community doesn't know of the hack, then it's not feasible that a troll would choose to ignore it.
Also- if the rest of your staff (smods, mods, etc) are not aware of the hack, then it's not likely that they'll leak the information out - either by accident or as a warning/threat or by discussing staff process after leaving their staff position.

Sorry for the tl;dr - but this hack impressed me and my admin staff.

Thanks so much for such an excellent - EXCELLENT hack. Not only is it useful and functional, it was obviously created by someone who knows the ~~dark side of the forums~~.
