I’m serious though. This is bordering on lolcow territory. There’s currently three separate threads about this user, who is a lemmy.ml user posting on lemmy.ml. Lay off
the_dunk_tank posts regarding users of federated instances are permitted granted they do not directly link to the user, or ping them. In addition the_dunk_tank posts regarding federated instance admins or moderators are prohobited.
You can push back on their statements directly given they are not in a meta community that explicitly prohibits non local users from engaging. Making a post in the dunk tank for admins/mods is still prohibited
If you want people to stop because you’re worried about defederation just say so. You can make a case for that without going to bat for this absolute clown.

I thought you were joking around because saying you were going to report no matter what I did was ridiculous. Go right ahead
Tbh I’m planning to report all new federated Lemmy content that gets posted to the dunk tank until a mod clarifies the rules or tells me to stop.

I thought we removed that rule about admins/mods

Okay, gotcha. Understandable, even if I think some of these nerds richly deserve a dunking
Sounds like an excellent use of both your time and the mods’
Why do you want this clown that’s running multiple accounts to be protected?
If anything, they turned themself into a “lolcow”
Do you think the original lolcows were wholly umproblematic?
This is bordering on reactionary.
This is just weird.

When did I ever “go to bat” for this absolute clown?
That may have been a little overboard, I agree.
But I still fail to see how wanting to expose an obvious troll is somehow “bordering on reactionary”.
It’s possible that I’m not alone in being hyperbolic here.
It’s the lolcow thing
In my defense, there was a third, now removed post that was being much worse about it, and that’s what prompted me to start making the comparison.
the guy seems legitimately mentally unwell. we should lay off on the dunking for him.
