We are now accepting new volunteers to serve on the MIR Team from October 2012 - January 2013
Volunteers who wish to help keep DU running smoothly should consider joining the Malicious Intruder Removal Team (MIR Team). The role of MIR Team members is simple: they are empowered to revoke the posting privileges of people who show up at DU with the intent to disrupt.

Members of the MIR Team are provided with tools to delete spam posted by people who have had their posting privileges revoked, but they are NOT responsible for removing community standards violations, locking threads, or dealing with violations of DU's Terms of Service wherever they may occur.

If you are a DU member with at least six months of membership, at least 1,000 posts, and proof of identity (ie. you are a Star member or current DU2 donor and made the donation in your own name) then you can apply to be a member of the MIR Team. (Please note that if your Transparency page is displayed, you are disqualified from serving on the MIR Team.)

How do I apply?

Simple: just post in this thread to let us know that you'd like to give it a try, and you could be selected by the Admins. There is no application form to fill out, and no confidentiality agreement to sign. MIR Team members do not have access to any privileged information about other DU members.

We plan to introduce the new MIR Team on Wednesday October 17.

Some of you know about this already. I recognize a few of you on the volunteer list.

I'm gonna give it a shot.

I nominated him for a top ten DOTY in 2011. He's had a quiet year.

They can delete spam, nothing more than that.

Geezuz, as a lowly moderator here, franksolich, and all the moderators, has more power than that.

Much more.

Whoopee.

They can delete spam.

Whoop-doop-de-do.

The problem with being on the MIRT is that they can only screw with the low post count noobs. That's where you find all the newly minted moles and trolls that you'd want to leave alone anyway. MIRT can't touch the long-term, dedicated moonbats. That takes the fun out of it.

Just think of the cred you'd get for burning some easily replaceable moles. The HDIC wouldn't look at the particulars, just the body count.
