Deleted posts from mods value & rank:To provide some follow-up on my
prior post:
Looking into the counts & ranks closer here for this particular report, I was able to narrow down what was happening, but still need to fix it.
As it stands now:a) The profile page is getting its value/count from a table/field which
is being updated by parsers.
b) The report page is getting its value/count from a table/field which
is not being used or updated by parsers.
c) Both pages are pulling their
rank from the same table/field, which unfortunately has
not been part of the stored procedure which calculates and updates ranks.
Because of this, the visible result is:The report page for deleted posts by mods hasn't been updated at all (in terms of value/rank), for some time they've been static.
You can compare an
archive from 2020 with a
recent archive from the end of March and see the value & ranks haven't changed.
For the profile page, the
value has been changing, as can be shown checking the archives of someone like JollyGood (
current &
archive from Feb 2021 and
June 2022).
But the rank has remained static on the profile page as well, again due to the current table not being included in the rank calculations.
All this said, there is a chance for potential small gaps in capturing the modlog/seclog in the past, if there were parser issues or downtime occurring, which occasionally happened more in the earlier days of development then it would now, but I'd expect the count shown on the profile page is close to what it should be, based on what has been collected from the parsing since 2018.
I've some questions regarding BPIP security/moderator log. Does it shows the full list of security and modlog till date? or is there a point of date? I am checking a profile and just trying to make sure of something.
Here is what I'm seeing:
Seclog on BPIP goes back to March 16th, 2018.
Modlog on BPIP has ~1.3M saved records with an accurate date/time which ranges from August 3rd, 2018 until today. The modlog also has 177,836 records with a (default) unix timestamp from 1970. Based on the ID's of these records without a timestamp, they were all created (assumingly in order) before the range of time above. I didn't go back and look but the lack of a timestamp on these were likely related to a bug which was ultimately fixed in August of 2018, when it started capturing the date/time correctly.
Also is there a way where I can see full merit history of a profile?
Currently, you'd only be able to see:
Full sent:
https://bpip.org/smerit.aspx?from=AvirunesFull received:
https://bpip.org/smerit.aspx?to=AvirunesBut it might not be a bad idea to have a view showing them merged together for a profile, which shouldn't be too difficult. I'll add this to my TODO list.
