Except there are plenty who are doing the trolling, and the quotes are dismissive of it entirely. Despite you noting that there are in your other comment.

When did MigratingApe do any anti-AI trolling?

I have no idea, nor do I care to investigate how a mod handles things on a small community.

Here are a few things we do know:

• There are trolls harassing AI comms
• Most of them come through and downvote heavily, or...
• using a readily available tool to coordinate across multiple accounts, mass downvote. Appearing as a single downvote per account.
• Some people mod multiple small communities, and will ban across all of them. Best idea? Eh, maybe not, but its their comm. People can always make another, thats kind of a major point of Lemmy isn't it?

The fact that there are people, such as yourself, getting so riled up over being banned from a community they claim to not have any interest in is also odd. Why would being banned from a community you dont care about even matter?

But let's not pretend there aren't trolls when there clearly are. This also isn't the first time this sort of thing has happened.

Some people are just shitty. Banning and blocking are handy tools for that.

people are already talking in these comments about a reason to block all of dbzer0 as a result, which I think was exactly the kind of intended response for this to generate.

Probably their goal, yes.

except that it was made by one of the trolls

Yep, I'm aware of the posts, I just wanted to point out two things - that they were deleted so no longer a good reference, and the quotes around anti-AI trolls - which as you say, there absolutely are, and were in that original thread you linked - comes across as dismissing the idea that they exist.

The latest anti-AI alt made purely to harass Mystic seems to be banned and their content removed, so the links are broken, FYI.

Edit: Also your quotes around anti-AI trolls - which they literally are - is definitely putting a spin on the reality here. Makes me think your ban was entirely appropriate.

You respond, to a user who is clearly harassing a mod.

Boy oh boy, I wonder why some folks are quick with the ban? What could the reason possibly be?

The world may never know.

YDM

~~YDI~~.

Just to spell it out clearly - YOU DESERVE~~D IT~~ MORE.

Get a life already and stop harassing people.

Edit: Forgot about the new option.

If we were to see a zombie apocalypse, I really think he'd be the start of the infection. Like a multiple digit percent chance over everyone else around the globe.

I bought a gerbil from the petting zoo

If Richard Gere can do it I can too

Its a ridiculous system.

Just a random thought, its a shame flairs aren't better implemented (and available lemmy-wide) so they could be used for preferred pronouns, that would be great.

Sorry pretty far OT, just thinking that would make communication here even easier

Got a new car loan.

20 points up.

just know that State Farm is one of the worst companies for ~~Homeowners~~ Insurance.

I wouldn't get any state farm insurance. We had to sue to get the very coverage outlined in the policy for uninsured/underinsured driver coverage.

Just the worst.
