User blog comment:Thisismyrofl/Suggestion: New usergroup "Rollback-global"/@comment-2200849-20131003114339

In the current form, this post does not give me many reasons that would make me consider the addition of the group useful. Larger wikis that can attract vandal attention are exactly the ones with a sizeable moderation team (Wookieepedia has 40+ admins, for example), and they tend to object to the use of global rights on their wiki. This proposal assumes that there exists a significant number of users who have experience reverting problematic edits and are familiar with Wikia&mdash;looking at the amount of users in the Countervandalism IRC channels and the amount of reports on w:c:vstf, I consider this a little optimistic.

As such, introducing the group would likely result in a usergroup that attracts rights collectors, has a wider potential for abuse&mdash; any rights that give a user power on 350,000+ wikis should be administered with utmost caution&mdash;and does not really give any added benefit considering the established methods of vandalism and spam fighting across Wikia and on individual wikis, as well as the ease of making the use of rollback impossible&mdash;given an instance of a "massive" attack described above, the perpetrator(s) can easily evade rollback by having two different users or anons make edits on the same page, or just create pages.
