Anti-Abuse Team Weekly Report #35

Friday - May 11th - 2018

Missed last week due to my birthday and Mother's Day celebrations. Data will be a bit odd this time around because of the gap.

The details of this weeks prune of the member-list -

19602 Members before this week's prune was run. (1382 new accounts since last week)
30 Day Prune has removed 432 dead accounts. (175 more were removed this Prune.)
This leaves our count at 18630 Members after the prune.
~1300 Peak Concurrent users this week. (Holding steady.)

Updated stats on Bans and Blacklist -

3429 Discord bans (+186 new from previous)
4146 accounts in total are now Blacklisted by @minnowsupport (+211 from previous!)

Member count data over time:

This shows the trend of members gained over time. I use the number of users counted after each purge each week.

Blacklist Counts by Type:

This gives a breakdown of the major categories we list an account under in our Blacklist.

If you average them to guess at last week's missing data, it's pretty much in line. (The member count graph has a placeholder for last week.)

A quick review of things that get you blacklisted:

A single image or even multiple images, with very little text or only a basic bit of information with it.
An embedded YouTube or DTube video with zero additions to the post that provide value.
Attempting to gain multiple upvotes outside our 1 per cool-down by any means.
Any major violation of our community guidelines and rules. (This usually has to do with treatment of other users on the platform.)

Not all of these result in a ban from Discord since we want you to learn and improve.

Summer begins, and we keep going.
