@Igor, an administrator, has recently stepped in with an admirable effort to stamp out all spam, unpleasantness and vulgarity on EC. It is not before time, and not an easy task.
Abused victims are now sometimes unfortunately blocked by Igor 'in the same breath' as the bad initiators, but personally I can accept that to some extent, in the hope that all nastiness including retaliation will cease.
My appeal to you Igor at this time, is that you do not hand your good manual moderation entirely over to automation. Such automation will not stop unpleasant innuendos, or altered words like 'fu _ck'.
Automated monitoring may also be damaging, in that a 'bad' person may report a great many complaints against a 'good' person ... This could lead to an automated block against that 'good' person where only an automated high number of complaints is considered.
@Igor: Please continue to overlook the moderation of EC and not rely on your forthcoming automated monitoring entirely.
Finally, I think that we users should feel extremely privileged to be able to use such a masterpiece of electronic knowledge, incorporated with such high programming, graphics and user-friendly presentation. Many thanks to Igor and the team.
Let's abide by this Igor philosophy here on EC:
If you don't like a presentation, then just ignore it and move on, rather than being unpleasant if you can not supply friendly and constructive help.
If we don't... then we may be banned by the EC moderators who rightly set the standards for their site.
Unkind opinions and disrespectful manner aimed at a person will almost inevitably cause trouble.
