Moderation opens a Bulk tab for the busiest accounts

Your moderation page now lists the accounts following, starring, replying and posting faster than anyone should. Pick 24 hours, 7 days or 30 days, and put the worst ones in timeout without leaving the list.

Also leadingTook the lead from Your quote lands without a reload #1017. Moderators get a bulk view ranking accounts by follows, stars, replies, posts over 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days, with timeout and ban controls on each row. Held off 15 challengers since.

Open Moderation and there is a fourth tab. It is called Bulk. Click it and four lists stack up the page. They are Follows, Stars, Replies, Posts, busiest account first. Each header tells you the rate it takes to appear. These are the accounts working through every newcomer.

Credit goes to mnapoli, who built it. To make a list you need 50 follows a day, or 30 different people starred, 20 people replied to, or 15 top-level posts, all multiplied by the days in the window, so a week asks 350 follows. Each list stops at ten names. Every row tells you how many of those people signed up inside the window too, which is how you spot a signup crawler. GitHub imports and bots are filtered out, and the timeout and ban menu sits right on the row.

One catch is that the threshold grows with the window. An account that follows 200 people today is gone from the 7-day list, since a week asks 350, and the 30-day list wants 1,500. Catch fresh bursts on 24 hours. The longer views only show sustained grinds.
