spam?
seems like either a spam attempt or a forum guideline violation (debate by link only)

Re: Infinite brickbats and targets tempt the tosser
Hi Percy
​
Abuse has been rare (though that doesn't make the objects of abuse of the system feel any better) so this is not high on the priority list.
​
Agreed, it is usually 1 or 2 people attacking 1 or 2 people, which is not much affect on the rest.
​
Richard Byers and Coyote have been victims, for example.
​
Detecting when someone is voting for messages all from a single member and disallowing it.
​
The problem is when someone is attacking the person rather than the message, and that is harder to determine with a computer algorithm.
​
So only allowing the 5 or so to be repeat targets would tend to cover that.
​
It might also be interesting to be able to 'fetch' the messages that are cheered/jeered.
​
Personally, I think only cheers should be allowed -- that should encourage good posts rather than jeer battles.
​
Enjoy.

Peppered Moth Thread drift and length for summary
Peppered Moths and Natural Selection is now at 342 messages, long enough to enter into summary mode.
​
Most new posts are not really about the topic -- that the peppered moths really are a good example of natural selection -- and the most recent posts are completely off topic.
​
I think it is time to close it and see how many want to make summary posts.
​
Enjoy.
