@LMAO is flooding the site with random communities because they’re salty about being banned for claiming too many community names. They claim they’re trying to “fuck your entire site up” but I imagine it’s a relatively quick fix to delete all the communities they’re creating, LMAO.

    Looking at his profile

    Since you banned my main for claiming community names, I’ll just fuck your entire site up instead. Much love, Angled

    Yeah can’t imagine why an instance admin might not want this insufferable piece of shit in their instance.

        Idk, seems like this is quite a pivotal time with an influx of users. Be a shame to have the potential growth in community go to waste.

          True, but they could limit community creation to, say, five a day. That would be more than the vast majority of people would legitimately need.

            Unfortunately that would mean that real communities wouldn’t be created since that would be used up by someone creating spam communities. Though, maybe limiting the amount of communities that could be made by one account in a certain amount of time? What about verification by email (to send a coherent reason) to the admins to create a community.

              I was meaning five per day for a given user. That’s why I said that would be plenty for most individuals - most people aren’t legitimately going to want to create more than five communities in a day, and for them it wouldn’t be a hardship to wait a day for another five. But for people like this guy, trying to flood the instance with endless/pointless communities, it would cut that down to a manageable number.

          Counterpoint: we don’t need growth if the cost is the destruction of a good thing. Guided growth is smarter and more sustainable especially when users like the subject of this post aren’t unique. There are a lot of small, mean-spirited people out there who will take a dump all over everything the moment they can.
