Permanently ban reoffenders. 24hrs ban isn't changing anything

Dear Nairalanders...Hit me with your suggestions and complaints.
Put up a Dislike button.
Let the system automatically notify the mods if the number of 'dislike' clicks on a particular comment reaches a certain number that is significant in comparison to the Likes or the overall engagement on that thread.

Also, if a comment gathers an unusually high number of 'dislikes', the bot should instantly ban the for immediate review by mods.

We can start the cleansing from there.

Dear Nairalanders,

For years, people have been alleging that Nairaland is a toxic place where people insult each other and exhibit uncontrolled tribal bigotry. So after my last thread, we decided to follow through by extending the mandate of our anti-spam bot to include dealing with toxicity.

Unfortunately, the roll out wasn't smooth: many innocent were unjustly banned. We apologize profusely for this. We will keep tweaking the bot to make it more accurate. Meanwhile, please reach out to the mods and supermods if you are unjustly banned.

You're doing a good job with Nairaland.

Keep tweaking it and also adopt creation to be based on phone numbers so that when they are banned they would not open another to continue and to also prevent one person opening multiple s to push same narrative and then also using the s to like his own bigotry comments so that it looks popular or acceptable to people.

I have always said nobody can be bragging about his tribe because he has nothing to do with which tribe he or she is born into so why the bragging grin

What is Nairaland without these normal banters are insults That shows the true reflections of our ethnic differences…
Some of us come here to get entertained reading banters.

Despite this so-called apology, the anti-spambot is still banning my comments left and right. Nairaland is utterly useless!

No wonder I was banned from commenting on the site for 4hrs and from making any post in the sports section for some hours. I didn't even post anything or even banter any. Just ordinary quoting or reply and your anti not banned my .
Everything is okay now. Thanks for the good works and try to update some stuff too. All the best.

Modified: I will suggest you change the share button to dislike button. Let those tribal bigots and haters know that people don't like what they're doing all because of political difference. The time is now. Except you enjoy the trolling and banter or the hatred and tribalism. Fingers crossed

Change the Nairaland UI, Seun... The current one is too boring. We're no longer living in the 2000s.

Seun, it would be very useful to have the words that trigger the bot to ban comments.

I was banned from the politics and education sections but I did not use any word that would be offensive.

@Seun, I don't think you're honest with this 'Hit me with your suggestions' request you make every now and then.
How about providing on key suggestions proffered in the past. E.g
1: The suggestion on dislike button, we have made 45% progress ... Better still, we can't implement this because ...

I'm not sure he wants to implement that because it is very simple if he's intentional about it. All he needs do is copy the like button and it's state, change the labels to dislike, create new column on posts table and run db migration
