Original message: GenZedong users and moderators warned the Lemmygrad administration of chauvinists and people who harassed other users creating a community called Dongistan. Admins from both Discord and Telegram warned us of these reactionary elements and they were preemptively removed from the community

EDIT: We were working on the assumption that they were PatSocs, because that was the information given to us, and we decided to act upon that without further evidence. It was a mistake on our part. The community was therefore restored, but we are investigating the case further.

We are banning trolls which were harassing admins and other members inside Lemmygrad, and we’ve found out that they are a part of a group called “Horde’s People’s Republic of Dongistan” on Telegram.

    Satanael What you didn’t see in that conversation was that we agreed to not do it precisely because of how shitty it was. I was there and specifically said we shouldn’t do it. If thinking of harassment and not actually doing it now qualifies as harassment then I don’t know what is real harassment. BTW, I am a mod there too and actively try to tone down the community when I can.

      I know that you eventually disagreed, but the point of these screenshots is to show that in numerous instances it was discussed ways to particularly harass the mods of GZD. In the comment, I do not say the plans shown had been done, I say they were discussed.

      But that GZD mods and even admins of Lemmygrad were harassed, we basically saw it from our own experience, because our inboxes got spammed during the whole confusion, and we banned those who did such actions against us. I shared these screenshots not to show evidence of harassment, but to show evidence of the reactionary tendencies of some of its moderators.

      I am thankful that this community at least has someone to tone it down, because it often got off limits, stuff that would get anyone banned here. Last time I checked, they banned one moderator for also toning it down (ajegy), so at least I hope you last.
