Comment (by cypherpunks3):

 Replying to [comment:3 teor]:
 > We disabled most permissions on most accounts, because someone was using
 the cypherpunks account to close tickets, and paste random text into
 tickets. We were also having issues with bots using the search function,
 and bringing down the server.

 For the record, this ticket was about wiki editing privileges, which had
 nothing to do with the above and weren't revoked in July when this
 ticketspam happened. cypherpunks and new accounts only had their trac
 ticket abilities removed. Wiki editing privileges were still there.

 Until very recently. When one cypherpunks, frustrated and angry about the
 inability to use tickets, and obviously unable to file a ticket about "i
 can't file a ticket," started instead vandalizing several trac wiki pages
 with his rant `Fucking shit, cyphrpunks account cannot create and comment
 tickets. TICKET_CREATE privileges are required to perform this operation
 on Ticket #None. You don't have the required permissions.` at Aug 29,
 2018, 2:23:41 PM.

 So now we only a few days ago lost trac wiki editing, too, in reaction of
 one, completely different person.
