So are the number of problem users.
Really? The rate appears to have been pretty much constant for the length of time I have been around
That makes me think you haven't been around more than a few months.
Blocking open (not "open source") proxies is not going to get rid of CD or any other miscreant on dialup.
They are only one source of problems
But not a difficult to solve one (in fact a very easy to alleviate one, with an open proxy check in the software; I'm not sure why one hasn't been implemented), and not the one at issue here.
How do filters help?
I can't cheack every edit on RC I have to use various methods to select the ones most likely to be a problem.
So your solution to volunteer burnout is to help them find more problems to deal with?
