Script for marking spam-profiles/rulebreakers etc. in facebook - facebook group administration.

I moderate several groups/pages on facebook and some groups have rules where the policy is to either throw the rule-breaker out forever or just temporarily. So far the protocol has been to manually add the culprit to a shared spreadsheet in google docs (name, what they did, when they did it, measures taken, name of admin/mod who executed the measures). This is done in order to identify people who try to re-enter/re-join the group.

I recently made a "proof of concept" CSS for the extension/plugin "Stylish" that color-codes rule-breakers name based on their facebook profile url. A bonus is that if any rule-breaker tries to join any group other than the group he/she was thrown out from, their name will be color-coded and i can decide the request to join the group because he/she is a known rule-breaker.

Now i want to expand on this idea and add tooltips or additional text to the persons name that includes a short description of what they did, when they did it, measures taken, name of admin/mod who executed the measures.

What would be the best course of action from here?

Thanks!

Holy shit thanks! :dizzy:

May i make an update video demonstrating this script?

I'm pretty sure admins/mods all over facebook will love this extension! :love:

If you wish to make and upload a video, do it and enjoy!
I enjoyed doing this script, but remember that this is only a small script that may content a lot of bugs. Tell us what is wrong and send us new ideas and the community can resolve and expand it.

I'll test it out and report back if there are any issues. So far, it works brilliantly!

Good video. But two comments:

1. Did you know that you do not need to delete the final of the link names ? If you add the link "https://www.facebook.com/zuck?ref=br_rs", the script adds to the database only "/zuck", even if you don't remove the "?ref=br_rs" part (or wharever other stuff goes here). Please, check and confirm if it works as described.
2. In theory, you will see the usernames banned in red/orange text color, but i cannot see that in your video. Can you confirm the bug ?

Thanks! I think i'll re-do the video if i can figure out how to sync the "facebook-ban-list.txt" trough dropbox. That would be killer haha. Perhaps make one large .txt of spammers identified by trusted mods/admins over the world? That could be interesting.

1. I didn't know, but i always remove the "extra stuff" when copying links, it's a habit :P

I have tested, and i can confirm that it does work without removing the "?ref=br_rs" part.

2. Yes. The names are not colored red/orange, only the icons work. I did not know that the names should be colored, the icons are sufficient but color coding for the names would be a bonus :D I tested on both my windows and mac (in chrome).

Thanks again! :]

Solved the colors issue.
