How's it going Ed001, all good? I have a question, well more of a curiosity, as to how much of a help for the site if you have the AI moderation tools available?
Should help make editing easier and quicker for all the Eds?
{Ed001's Note - I have no idea what you are even talking about, sorry.}

I think it's a bit much to expect Andoni Iraola to moderate this site, as well as managing the team!

Will be interesting to see his moderation tool. I don't think I've ever seen one. Perhaps I should get out more.

Haha mates, it's essentially a chat-moderation tool. So you set out the parameters of what you will automatically exclude (profanities, racial slurs etc), so it will take care of it without your input.
But at the same time, and the reason I asked, was that I was curious if the site uses it and if so, how would you have set out the parameters because the range of topics that we would comment on are vast and wide.

All the Eds need is a cattle prod and a heavy mallett.
Happy to lend these, if required.

Brilliantly explained, Azk2. I hope you didn't use AI to write it!

So it's a censorship tool that also manipulates what people write to conform to a set of pre-defined set of parameters to provide a text that suits the person applying the tool to edit the input.

Ed01 ????.
If we had AI we wouldn't get that response or Ed33s to Spion yesterday!!

Whatever tools they may or may not use the Eds do a great job of modding the site ?
