So for the folks seeing all the deleted comments and going “Wow, that’s uncharacteristic!”
Someone created a bot that posted over 7,000 40,000 garbage comments in multiple communities and now almost 10 bogus accounts.
They got banned and removed pretty quickly, but the nature of federation means some people are still seeing the comments.
So you can stop reporting the dude with the weird Simpsons/George Floyd mashup images. They’re already nuked, it just needs to finish cleaning it up.
The moderation channel right now is also being flooded with reports on the account that is already banned and removed, and that’s making it hard to get around to OTHER legitimate reports.
so are users, are you volunteering? Moderators don’t get paid, they’re literally just users who occasionally hit the delete button when some makes a post that in general summary looks something like “FCK U ASRHLE, U SCK BLLZ!”, stuff that doesn’t contribute to the public good.
How does a person who knows nothing about programming edit a code base? I wouldn’t know where to start. I could edit a text file, that’s about it.
Why would I monitor the bot-fest for them? Your admins obviously give 0 shits about it lol.
