I'd have to say, nice job of sabotage... moronic actually

So what you really mean is that there are not enough mods to keep up with the deport workload - or the mods we have on this site are incompetent/compromised and won't keep up with the workload.
Any sauce to go with that? Most of us cannot see the report queue...
I saw that earlier post. I can see how it could easily become a problem with people deporting posts for trivial reasons, and burying mods as a result.
If there was a way to disable the deport/report link for people that abuse it, that might help keep the deports down to a manageable level...
Otherwise, maybe disable the deport link for everyone and rely on mods to do all the deporting themselves... that could end up being a lot of work for the mods though.
That makes sense. The bare-bones functionality increases the workload on the mods to try to keep up with the shill attacks, and causes burn-out.
Maybe it would be better to use email addresses as usernames during sign up (many sites do this). That would make it more difficult for shills to rapidly create new accounts after they get deported. Not impossible, just more difficult and time consuming for them.
Probably too late to add that sort of major change though - which means GA will likely implode under the attacks of all the shills as a result. That is too bad... I have enjoyed this site a lot over the past months.
