| May 2, 2012 at 16:08 | comment | added | user9733 | @KannappanSampath I'd let the math mods handle this one, there seems to be quite a bit of history to the whole thing. Even though chat moderation is global, I think non-urgent issues (the offending messages are removed already) should preferably be handled by the mods of the parent site. | |
| May 2, 2012 at 16:02 | comment | added | user21436 | @Fabian I was involved in the incident on the receiving side (I was insulted!) and the remark was expunged from the transcript and resulted in 30 minutes suspension for the other user. If you'd want me to tell you what the remark was, we'll have to work out a mode of communication. | |
| May 2, 2012 at 15:51 | comment | added | user9733 | @BenjaminLim A spam/offensive flag on a racial slur will almost certainly be declared valid, which results in the chat message being deleted and the user being suspended from chat for 30 minutes. Depending on what exactly was said, a longer suspension could certainly be warranted. If I encountered such a situation in chat I'd strongly warn the user to stop that behaviour for sure, and possibly even suspend for a longer time than the automatic 30 minutes. | |
| May 2, 2012 at 15:07 | comment | added | user5783 | @WillieWong The thing is some racial slurs have allegedly been made by some users in the chatroom. Should an investigation be launched? And if it is indeed found to be true that a certain user has made such racial slurs, should such a user be warned/suspended? | |
