Forming the Stalin Battalion!
Some instances we federate with have free account creation and some people use that to instantly post on Lemmygrad (like 2 days old accounts with comments only on Lemmygrad type of stuff)
I give you my blessing to dunk on those people when you see them, go as hard as you need (within reason).
But remember: people that are reasonable should receive the same too. I’m talking about pure trolls who know what they’re doing.
Then don’t forget to report them and we’ll ban them.
If we mobilise a front to counter trolls, I assure you they will stop soon enough because we take the fun out of it.
I’m new to social media… I mean, to social media in general, I had an account or two, that have been either entirely abandoned after creation or deleted for years… So I hope me enjoying my time here wouldn’t bring much discomfort to others.
If your account was approved on Lemmygrad you have nothing to worry about. I don’t know if you know (some people don’t), but Lemmygrad is federated with other instances on Lemmy. Essentially people from other websites running the same software can interact on Lemmygrad. We like having this cross-traffic, but some people make alt accounts for the sole reason of trolling us on Lemmygrad.
