It crossed my mind to apply again - for the pure and simple reason that if we're in charge of one of the accounts, then somebody else isn't. And I trust me.
Look at the final paragraph of my recent comment... it's always interesting to predict something before it happens. Trouble is, I know who this leads back to and I've caught her abusing her privileges before. I'm not sure anything changed though. Much like the reality that historic scammer simonnwigwe is back in a curation team again. Are him and his housemate josepha still running multiple accounts? Of course they are. Have they learnt from their mistakes? Of course they have. And I don't have time to prove otherwise. Sad, it's so so sad and if we were curators, they wouldn't get another dollar from whichever account we're in charge of.
Those were my thoughts too. I was very surprised how quickly this was forgotten.

I "half" questioned it in a recent comment and it's not been forgotten... He's been given a 2nd chance.

Ahan!
I don't know. It feels so unfair...
Second chances are fine... Maybe upvote them again on some really good content... But including them in SC team... ???
It seems criminal to me.
It's like you were released on bail and were given a job in police. Lame example but super relatable!

I've been trying to think of a better analogy... somebody being selected to distribute food to the starving population then gorging - getting fatter and fatter until somebody notices.

Yeah, that's a better one.
I was particularly fixed on second chances given to the established scammers...

Ah yes, I forgot to add the relevant bit!!
... and then some months later, he applies to distribute food again. Amongst all of the applicants, still fat from his previous greed, he is selected again.
Om nom nom.

Isn't it ridiculous?
Or as they say:
A thief may give up stealing, but not deceit...
I don't doubt their (team) good intentions. But I just can't wrap my head around certain things... It's not only this particular event/incident. There are so many other things that have started to feel really unfair, unjust or simply ridiculous!

In Germany we say: "Zwei Doofe, ein Gedanke - wir bleiben noch mindestens ein Jahr zusammen."
I did. You wrote that much yesterday that I was not able to follow anymore. Nothing is actual anymore. I don't even know, who we hunt. Ouch. I wonder how many teams "Second Chance" there are.
I noticed Simonnwigwe aka Josepha aka Bonaventure24 aka so many, too.
And the votes and nominations...
Team "Second Chance"? Without making this "samaritian decision" public it's a strange answer. There are too many "normal" user ("nice" user, is that what @o1eh would call them?) who did not forget and won't forget.
Sure. But as long as all the sc accounts do not work together (haha, utopia, some of them do not even use sheets in one team...) there will be votes from all the other sides...

Das is richtig 😅
I got a bit addicted yesterday - it's rolled over into today. I was supposed to be doing DIY but the little one has scuppered those plans!
It did make me wonder... were the other "first chance" applicants so bad / suspicious that the "second chance" was the best option?
Over the years, I've caught sooooo many people that I sometimes see a username that I recognise and wonder what they did!
Exactly... even in our small team where we tried to communicate, it was clear that some members were only working for their own votes. Or maybe we intimidated them 😆

Yes, I know.
Sometimes I feel like recheck (mostly I don't, LOL) and sometimes, really sometimes the person changed. Crazy little wonders... ;-)
That was definitely a factor. How else can you explain the fact that I never heard from anyone again after the team disbanded? Never again! Although at least one of them is still very active. I must have made an extremely terrible impression. Or we did... 😎

I've been thinking about adding a "Notes" section for each user. So if you want a reminder about something to do with a user, you can click it and say "oh yeah". At the moment, I'd only be able to store this on a user's machine (which would be annoying when they all get deleted) but maybe one day this could be added.
Is it bad that I can't even remember who some of our other team members were?

Wow, that would be a great tool!
Maybe a shared Excel spreadsheet would help for a start...
Bad? I have no idea. Same here, but I haven't had any negative thoughts about it yet. It won't be senile dementia yet. Hopefully...
