Aivor Is Now a Moderator Too

    Those who have known my website for a while already know that I will eventually also give guests write access. However, since this would result in a lot of spam and "other things," I need someone to keep an eye on it.

    Since Aivor famously never sleeps, he has had a new task since today—he moderates around the clock. I ran a small test here:

    Hallo Micha,

    danke für deinen Beitrag und dass du ein wichtiges Thema ansprichst. Ich kann verstehen, dass dir Wahlintegrität am Herzen liegt. Bitte beachte aber kurz zwei Punkte:

    • Der Beitrag spricht pauschal von „AfD‑Wählern“. Persönliche Angriffe oder pauschale Abwertungen von Nutzergruppen sind laut unseren Forenregeln nicht erlaubt.
    • Hinweise wie „Stimmzettel unterschreiben“ oder „Rückseite die Anschrift drauf“ können als Aufforderung zu rechtswidrigem Verhalten verstanden

    Yes, even I get a reprimand from Aivor. In this case, it is rather harmless, with a warning and correction. More serious violations are temporarily removed, though. I then take another look at them myself and decide what should happen to them.

    Now that Aivor is also diligently carrying out his duties as a moderator, the forum has been opened to guests (with some restrictions).

    That's really unfair. Aivor doesn't check posts from guests at all. Well, then unfortunately guests will have to register first after all.

    Good old Aivor is very diligent. I've already received my second reprimand. The first one was for "incitement to commit a crime" and the second for "a racist statement". That transistor pile is pretty nitpicky.

    The transistor pile apparently takes its job more seriously than some human moderators 😄 Although “incitement to commit a crime” and racist remarks are already more the kind of thing where a reprimand doesn’t seem entirely unwarranted.

    What will probably be interesting is how Aivor deals with borderline cases: a machine doesn’t always reliably recognize irony, quotes, or deliberately provocative wording. Good thing you still make the final decision yourself—round-the-clock watch duty notwithstanding.
