UniversalMonk has been evading the bot’s ban on him by posting from new accounts. That’s ban evasion, which on most instances leads to an account-level ban, as far as I know.

I made a report, but just in case it blended in with the noise, I’m posting to let admins know that he’s now ban evading from these new accounts. As much fun as he is to interact with, and a good test for the bot’s throwaway account detection, I think Lemmy will be improved by nuking these accounts.

The accounts are UniversalMonk at lemm.ee, slrpnk.net, and sh.itjust.works. The first two ban evaded in !pleasantpolitics@slrpnk.net, the last one is merely connected to the person who did that.

@poVoq@slrpnk.net

I think I’ll make separate posts to the meta communities for the other two servers. I’m not sure which admin is appropriate for this.

    I didn’t even think about this. No, I don’t consider UniversalMonk’s participation in this post to be ban evasion. I’m fine giving him a chance to defend himself, if he wants to. It sounds like he’s done now with what he had to say.

    The decision to give him an account, while he’s still arguing vociferously that there was nothing wrong with the conduct that got him site-banned before, is confusing.
