Say hello to our new MIR Team!

This discussion thread was locked by EarlG (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 now 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). New MIRT members (and veterans who need a refresher) should check out the "How To" threads pinned to the top of the MIRT forum.

Thank you to everyone who volunteered! Volunteers were selected on a first-come-first-served basis.

The MIR Team, January - April 2022
