Many communities do not have mass-downvote problems. EDIT: it seems that it’s likely either an incredibly specific (to the post level) bot that so far has not affected any comments, or a discord campaign. There is no other way a post gets so many downvotes in a matter of seconds.
EDIT 2: This is actually funny because karma doesn’t even exist on the Lemmygrad; its literally just meaningless numbers on a screen.
EDIT 3: According to the Modlog, the mass downvoter @cummy@links.kaputt.cloud has been blocked…for 2 months. Make it 20 years, please.
EDIT 4: IMO we should remove the downvote feature and rely more on reporting subversive comments. This way, trolls will have to genuinely create accounts to mess with us; this takes more effort than it does to block them.
world-renowned detective @TheKanzler has surmised that it may be from this instance since it only federates with us and has the same number of downvotes
So any instance that decides to federate with us can come on here and downvotes and interact with our instance this subverting the vetting we do on new accounts?
Yes, although it doesn’t completely subvert the vetting since the admins can easily ban an entire instance. At this point, it might be better to use a whitelist instead of a blacklist
I don’t know why, but this group doesn’t really know how to treat trolls, literally just don’t give a shit about him and he’ll get bored, his fun is of you telling him to get a life or whatever
Well, you said it’s funny, so I guess you’re maybe an Alt right or a liberal who found this community from the r/genzedong post, found a lot of gay people who will get offended at everything and thought it’d be funny to troll them?
please don’t refer to this person with male pronouns, we might not be sure of their gender, instead you should use a gender-neutral way of referring, for example “clown”
This is a Dengist community in favor of Bashar al-Assad with no information that can lead to the arrest of Hillary Clinton, our fellow liberal and queen. This community is not ironic. We are Marxists-Leninists.
If you haven’t already found it, this GitHub page is an excellent collection of sources about socialism, imperialism, and other relevant topics, made by @dessalines and others.
I missed an eventful day lmao
incredibly funny to mass downvote a bunch of posts on a site where votes are meaningless

How about a deal, one of us plays chess with you at a specific time (not me), if they win you go away if you win you continue trolling
It got banned, ig we’ll wait for one of the accounts to reshow up
Eh just ignore. It literally doesn’t matter. They’ll get bored.
It’s like I am getting an exclusive interview with a random crackhead on the street let me talk with it
This carbon based biological organism (presumably) created an account 5h ago and has one comment
