    Ayo I’m in the screenshot letsa fucking GOOOOOOOOOO-

    For context, Bungiefan_ak has no fewer than 4 alts that I’ve seen (all on different instances with the same username) and has spent his time on [email protected] continuously spamming heavily transphobic, homophobic, and objectifying sexist “memes”. Just about every one of his alts is now banned but I’m sure more will pop up.

    Now, why the fuck he cares so much about pirates at this point, I haven’t a clue…

        Yeah we banned them on reddthat 2 days ago. I’m glad to see I’m not an outlier. Initially we should a 7 day ban should suffice. But then that user decided to message the admin directly and insult them.

        Probably the fastest way to get your account banned.

        Edit: The message in question. 👀 (Attempted spoiler open if you dare)

        Out of curiosity, just someone not supporting trans people or lgbtq are getting banned or they are taking asshole behaviour and spewing hate speech?

        Edit: good fucking world. I am not against lgbtq. I am supporting it. I am a bi curious guy. I am all in for their civil rights. I was asking a question about why that guy was banned. For asshole behaviour or just having a different opinion. I don’t believe just for telling someone doesn’t care about lgbtq is not a reason for ban.

          The guy posts anti-LGBT memes everywhere. He’s one of these losers that likes to use “cuck” in his comments. I’d ban on that alone. Hell, I’d ban anyone for being a Trump supporter or a tankie. Then again, that’s why I’m not a mod, never was, and shouldn’t be.

        That would explain why he’s such a snob about piracy on his Reddit subs. For context on Reddit this person (pretty sure they’re the same person) banned me from a sub he moderates (I believe it was r/3dshacks) and he tried to get me banned from r/EmulationOnAndroid and also weirdly enough r/teenagers he failed at getting me banned from them by the way because those subs aren’t anti-piracy bungie stans like he is, simply put they don’t care.

        But yeah he was a real loser, I think he got removed from most of the subs he moderated by Reddit though, and the participation in the protest has all but killed the remaining Sub. From Allmighty powermod to a pathetic whiny troll (though I guess he still was a whiny troll before, he just seemed more respectable from the outside).

      that guy is the most succesfull troll in history. he single-handedly created havoc that big that russian trollfarm wouldn’t have to be ashamed for and you continue to give him audience. just ban him and move on.

      • Hexbear is one of the oldest lemmy instances, but only recently started federating.

        Are you suggesting that for the last 3+ years, someone was running a troll farm where the trolls could only talk to each other?

      Spending that much money and time stanning for fucking Bungie of all decaying and bloated and corrupt treat companies is really something. pathetic

      and has spent his time on [email protected] continuously spamming heavily transphobic, homophobic, and objectifying sexist “memes”.

      Still laughing at the vast amount of people coming from reddit and expecting only chill people to be on lemmy. Like lemmy users are somehow immune to toxicity.

      It’s less toxic overall but we (or mostly the moderators) will have to fight them all the time.

      At least it will improve the moderation tools which is always a good thing.

        When I realized it was that dude who tried signing up to my instance I lost my shit laughing, if he was screened prior it’s obvious he wouldn’t have gotten in. This is precisely what happens when you focus on growth over organically cultivating a healthy community.

            If that is true in any way whatsoever, that is a completely moronic long term goal. Lemmy devs themselves have encouraged instances who do such a thing to defederate. I don’t see how realistically advertising or monetization would be done not only without immense privacy concerns that would likely affect the rest of the fediverse but without major protests and mass defederation. The backlash against it would be immense, not just on lemmy but across the fediverse itself.

    Pirate game

    Company loses $60 because it’s theft

    Company regains $60 after deleting game from hard drive

    Pirate one million copies, company bankrupt from massive theft

              you bet they are, it took them a month to “communicate” and “decide with community” to defed exploding heads, allowing them to grow 3x in the meantime, entire week for rammy site, but hexbear, a much larger instance that wasn’t caught proselytizing outside, got defederated “preemptively”. what the fuck is this bullshit?

              they do have pretty strong biases, but i’m guessing they got caught in their own circlejerk that tells them that all of that is normal. just look at any pinned post on .world and go into comments

      It’s a bit more nuanced than that. Their servers are based in the EU and therefore a rather easy target for copyright lawsuits, and they have neither unlimited funds nor the manpower to fight them off (even if the allegations are completely unfounded, you need a lawyer to refute them, and lawyers charge actual money).

      Sometimes it’s easier to focus on your strengths than fighting the good fight on all fronts and go down swinging.

    I genuinely do understand concerns about legal issues and the risk of facilitating illegal activities- but its not even hosted on their instance, why would it mater that the communities EXIST. They’re literally hosted by someone else…?

      But it is hosted on your home server.

      When you subscribe to a community, your home server downloads the content and passes it on to you.

      This is not like when The Pirate Bay was allowed to live because it only hosted torrent files and not copyrighted content, in the fediverse, you copy the content to your own server, and pass it on to the client/user, which means hosting the content.
