Notice the chosen pattern
Check display names, handles, or both, including simple disguised spellings.
Use case
A familiar-looking name appears on a new comment.
Name patterns
Watch names and handles for patterns you define, then review the account when one matches.
A match is recorded and can alert you when the viewer is new to the tray. It never claims two accounts are the same person, holds the comment, or bans the viewer.

Outcomes
What this gives you
See the recorded hit
The viewer profile shows the pattern and date, while Settings shows the total and latest match.
Avoid automatic punishment
Inspect comments, names seen, and standing before making a separate human decision.
The path
From the situation to the answer
Add a pattern
Choose display name, handle, or both. The tray checks the pattern is valid before saving.
A new comment arrives
The tray checks the name or handle; Trusted viewers are excluded.
The match is recorded
A new viewer can trigger an immediate notice; later matches can appear in the daily digest.
Open the viewer
Choose Trusted or Probation separately only when the history supports it. A ban is a separate channel-owner decision and always asks for confirmation.
