Say hello to our new MIR Team! [View all]

This discussion thread was locked by Skinner (a host of the Announcements group).

The job of the Malicious Intruder Removal Team is to ban people who join DU with the intent to disrupt. MIR Team members are volunteers, and they serve for a three-month term.

If you are a member of the MIR Team, you should have access to the access-restricted Malicious Intruder Removal Forum. It should appear as a red folder on your Forums & Groups page, and in the left column of any page (if you view DU in "Standard" mode).

Thank you to everyone who volunteered! We had a very strong response this time around, so unfortunately we were not able to take everyone who volunteered. Volunteers were selected on a first-come-first-served basis.

The MIR Team, April - July 2020
