General Discussion

Move Bot Banning section down the page

Does anyone care if I move the Bot Banning section down the page so that it is underneath the normal reporting area. When it gets a bit long, it gets annoying scrolling down to the main reporting area. ~ _{16:02, 4 January 2012 (UTC)}

I wouldn't mind and can see your reasoning. Just leave Template:VBarchivenav at the very bottom, so that it remains easy to be found. -- Spiderzed█ 16:39, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

K. I'll wait a little bit longer and do it tomorrow if there's no real objection. ~ _{16:43, 4 January 2012 (UTC)}

No objection. --Like Moss and The Dude..... 18:26, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

No objection.--The General ^{T Sys U! P! F!} 19:18, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Went ahead and moved it. ~ _{20:04, 4 January 2012 (UTC)}

Objection on no grounds what so ever!--User:Sexualharrison23:27, 4 January 2012 (bst)

I OBJECT! No I don't really, at all. And that's what I have to add here. --  AHLGTG THE END IS NIGH! 00:25, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

	OBJECTION!
	Vapor has an objection.

In before Axe Hack. ~ _{01:09, 5 January 2012 (UTC)}

I'd be ok with removing it altogether from A/VB and replacing the section's contents with a soft redirect. --Karek^{maps 2.0?!} 17:40, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

I'm all for that if you're on board now. ~ _{22:24, 6 January 2012 (UTC)}

Block Logs

Someone with indepth wiki knowledge:

Is there a way to have the system differentiate between certain categories of blocks? If you look through the block logs, it's a shit ton of spam bots. If there is anyway in the wiki technicals to be able to block them and shuffle them into another category, it'd be a bit more clean looking. Like a tick box when blocking for spambots. Obviously not a big deal, who actually looks through the block logs anyway? I just somehow ended up on the page and it was terrible to look at.

Fucking bots.--SA 00:34, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

The closest we can do is set some options for when we actually block them (i.e. have the reason we block them already filled in with the fact that they're a bot), but as far as filters and checkboxes on that page go, it's something we can't do. You'd need access to the actual code driving the wiki in order to do that, so you'd need to talk to Kevan. —Aichon— 07:07, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

Thats what I wanted to know about. Which means we're still boned. :| --SA 12:59, 4 January 2013 (UTC)

*snif* *snif* I smell drama. Is there drama ? OH MA GOSH IS DRAMA!!! --hagnat 21:39, 30 August 2015 (UTC)

The sooner they learn that 90% of this dispute should be on A/Arbitration the sooner I can sleep at night. A ZOMBIE ANT 01:07, 2 September 2015 (UTC)

Is there a minimum time cases need to stay on the main VB page? Can't this shit just be moved to archives and locked? --_K^CLZA 21:48, 4 September 2015 (UTC)

A/VB is now archived on an annual basis, so it'll be cycled in January 2016. Bob Moncrief ^EBD•W! 21:54, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
