Say hello to our new MIR Team!

[EarlG]

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!

Do I just keep an eye out for announcements?

And glad to see so many good DUers on these lists!

[uppityperson]

31. Yes, the next announcement should be out here the last week of July.

Being on MIRT is quite the experience, I highly recommend it to everyone. Make sure to read the important How To MIRT thread in the mirt before doing things as it explains a lot of what to do, not do, conventions, etc.

[cwydro]

32. Thank you for the response.

I'll keep an eye out for that!
