  • i’ve banned all the accounts i could identify as part of this scheme from lemmy.world now.

    i originally sent them a warning before i was aware of the scale of this involving a bunch of alts with different usernames. if i had known that when i sent the warning it would’ve been a ban straight away.

    they replied to my warning pretending they didn’t know about any recent vote manipulation, so they’re clearly not interested in acting in good faith going forward.



  • I’ve sent out warnings to 10 other users in the past few days about similar behavior already and also banned two users for this type of behavior. one of them appealed and is unbanned again.

    I also had this account in my list of such accounts, but I hadn’t followed up on it yet, as I figured I’d just deal with the top n users and then review it again at a later point in time.

    i’ve sent them a warning about this as well now that they’ll get banned from our instance if they continue engaging in this behavior.
