minus-squaregivesomefucks@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·edit-23 days agoIf you’re talking about the accounts that just spam articles for a couple months and disappear… There’s a single person who’s been doing it at least since the reddit migration 3 years ago, but I feel like it was already a thing before that. I have no idea what the original ban was for, but all those accounts eventually get banned for being an alt of that account. Afterwards they just make a dozen new accounts and keep doing it. It’s super weird, and I almost asked this morning actually when I saw a batch had been banned and new ones were already up. But I know the person wouldn’t answer.
