It is nice to have the Proctors team up and running. But how they |
| 19 |
can help with the active ban evasion problem? Ban someone, they |
| 20 |
will create a new e-mail, ban it after an inappropriate post and |
| 21 |
the cycle will repeat itself. This will go for eternity or until |
| 22 |
someone will get tired, but anyway the Gentoo will be hurt as an |
| 23 |
ultimate result of such affair. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
If I recall things correctly, the ban evasion was the main reason |
| 26 |
which lead us to the whitelisting and no other solution was |
| 27 |
proposed since (and I really doubt it exists). |
