@Bucket I think the few copies that reach 20 could stay until they are manually removed

@kikasshes true, but a few copies get there, how bout 50?

@Bucket 100 upvotes is probably a bit much. I think 20 upvotes is better.

@joeysellers okay, I have a cool idea, what if you guys put a "auto mod lock" on the creations above 100 Upvotes so then if there's a a report on one of those creations it won't temporarily remove it because it's obvious that they aren't copied. But all creations that are currently 100 and above, they will have auto mod locked, but if any more come in, they will just be in for approval of having auto mod locked and it will be determined from there.

@Bucket Yes, we do that already. It catches most of the plane copies (and the ever-popular stock design uploads).

@joeysellers you guys should have a system for auto mod that when a plane/creation Gets reported, it will see if the files for the plane is identical to another plane and whichever plane is younger will be removed. Since just painting planes is restricted it ignores the code that determines paint color/style so then it won't allow that to be a bypass to the system.

We have turned the auto-mod off for the time being. We will be refining it to prevent future abuse. The auto-mod only worked with planes, not with posts/comments or user accounts.

@TheRedStormer we knew they were doing that since zed was created. Auto mod doesn't delete accounts tho, he did that and it's not the mods job to go against his wishes and put it back up again

@SimpleTechAndResearch the mod clearly says it is confirmed that people are obusing the report system!

@SimpleTechAndResearch :/ he should stay or go. And not float in the middle

HE DELETED HIS ACCOUNT @TheRedStormer

@SimpleTechAndResearch he didn't look in the comments of https://www.simpleplanes.com/Forums/View/398543/Did-Zed-Delete-His-Planes-Again-And-Why
