Hello,
I have been a victim of on-site pinglist harassment for over two months now where a bad actor is adding me to every self-editing pinglist available, including yours. I have removed myself from these pinglists multiple times only to be added back promptly, and after turning off forum pings, some other people have been keeping watch of where I get pinged and been removing me themselves. Unfortunately, this is still ongoing, and I would like to be able to turn pings on again eventually.
Would you be able to prevent my name from being pinged by your pinglist, either by deleting it before sending your post if you see it, or by using data validation to block the entry of "vinid" in your google spreadsheet? I made a guide for how to prevent my name (or any name!) from even being entered in your Google Spreadsheet, which is just a few steps.
Thank you, and sorry for the trouble!
