In that case we would not need new code...we would just need a vote and have Sully count to five instead.
On the other hand, he may have written code to monitor flagged posts and report to him when the number reaches 2 for a given post so he can review and delete. In that case I would need his code so I can have it modified.
I do not think it is totally an Admin free process since Alex's posts were flagged many times and not deleted. The question is whether there is some coding in the process or if it is an entirely manual process. I'm sure Sully can provide that information.
