What the fuck? This is horrible. How is it that anyone discussing dragonfucker always seems to ignore this crap?
@[email protected] How is someone who engages in attrocious behavior like this still allowed on your instance? I mean they're clearly and aggressively violating Lemmy.nz's only rule, "Don't be a dick". I can't think of anything that's more of a dick more than harassing and telling a cancer patient to kill themselves.
Is that admin still active? The fact that this troll is still here has led me to believe that instance has been abandoned.
Admin seems to be still active, I mean he last posted 19 minutes ago, and he upgraded to 0.19.8 which is semi-recent. So I think it's fair to say he's still active. Maybe is just unaware.
There’s no way they’re unaware.
You're right. I did send him a message on Matrix and via Lemmy DMs I hope he responds soon and isn't deliberately allowing this type of shit.
I’m near certain that I’ve seen many people say that they’ve tried reaching out to the admin of his home instance. There’s no way the admins isn’t aware.
I was able to contact him about it and he said he gave dragonfucker a warning and told him to stop, he said he wasn't going to ban dragonfucker yet because then dragonfucker would just make another account. He also was in the spam defense channel when I posted about the latest harassment campaign against me. It's really ugly. He and others there are almost certain it's an alt of dragonfucker. Though obviously without internal data from feddit.rocks we won't be able to prove that, and might not be able to anyway.
Here’s the thing about that troll. The whole “drag” bullshit will only work on that account. He can’t come back with that crap form another account without outing himself as a “drag.”
So I say- ban that troll.
Agreed, I wish Lemmy.world's admins felt that way though. They'll probably let dragonfucker get away with this forever. Even though it is very clear that these accounts are alts of dragonfucker, or very closely connected either way. And from what I can tell incitement of harassment from your friends is still just as bannable as doing it via alts. At least it absolutely should be.
I’m pretty sure he’s banned on .world.
The alt? Absolutely. Dragonfucker's main isn't though. Which I find kind of crazy because of how much dragonfucker has done and then add this. That would be a permaban from most instances.
Are you certain? I could swear that Dragonfucker (I cringe so hard at that name) was banned from world a few months ago.
Maybe temporarily, but certainly not anymore considering dragonfucker was able to reply in this thread and start this whole new wave of drama.
Fair point.
