Whew, what a cool customer! He's already starting a campaign to get himself re-ingratiated with the powers that be on WP. No doubt he hopes to become an admin again, if necessary under yet another username. To get away with that, he'll need a few friends, won't he?

Reaper Eternal just gave him back Auto-patrol.
What an idiot! Auto patrol allowed Cirt to avoid scrutiny of new page patrollers when creating spam like Daryl Wine Bar and Restaurant.

How does that work, exactly?
If someone with the appropriate gnarly awesome powers looks at Special:NewPages, he'll see them highlighted in yellow unless they were created by, or verified as sensible by, another user with similar powers. Now, Cirt's new pages will not be highlighted, so the average new page checker won't bother to look at them, allowing him to get away with creating spam.
