It seems to me that NodeReader does a decent job of separating out the trolls, etc that try to pollute the Monastery, but reaped root nodes still show up in Newest Nodes, and reaped replies show up in their threads. I recognize and support the reluctance to ever remove a node completely, but I'd be in favor of not showing reaped nodes by default (perhaps unless they had unreaped replies). A check box on the user settings page could control this fairly easily.

The non-interventionist solution (i.e. one that doesn't require vroom's effort) is simply not clicking on nodes owned by the reaper, but I at least usually read new nodes without attention to the author. Though not a huge improvement, it would save some sliver of people's time and hide some of the trash from casual visitors.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
