What can we do to keep this site civil / professional / work safe?
In defence of the XKCD comic - context is everything. Whenever someone asks me what the trackpoint is called, that's actually what I link to them. I've not got one complaint about it being NSFW. Most …

Please allow me to ask questions again, after a year of being blocked
I'm a moderator at superuser, and I'd second that this happened due to the cold hard logic of an automated system, and the moderators didn't really have anything to do with this. MSU would have been t …

HTTP Downloader Spam Answers
I think there's nothing left to do at this point. It has been flagged to oblivion.
Amusingly even if it wasn't spam, IIRC google take out files are only available for a limited amount of time, I don' …

Well - broadness isn't just for solutions, it is for problems.

Pondering mod status tags
We've been using the status tags - things like status-review were used for 'internal' SU moderation tasks. At some point, review tags on per site meta get fed into tickets internally. … I feel like a set of tags with the 'same' uses - review, deferred, rejected and completed for MSU moderation and meta moderation tasks would be useful - we wouldn't be stepping on staff toes and it might …

Proposed resolution : Quoting cannot be called plagiarism
