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 !memes@lemmy.ml 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....

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 103 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

There's likely going to be more

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 46 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Doing the lord's work. What a shitfest of a modlog, real winner this guy is

Edit: dear God he keeps MAKING MORE. This dude seriously needs to get a life or something

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 year ago

I'll keep an eye out, and I sort everything by new anyway.

[–] reddthat@reddthat.com 14 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

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)

I believe the spoiler tag is the following on Lemmy

Maybe he just likes to argue with people. I have 1 such classmate. His "opinions" are always just opposite to who he's talking with. But apparently outside of school he's normal.

[–] acastcandream@beehaw.org 47 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It’s easy to be a contrarian when opinions are not something you actually hold, but simply hats to be swapped out or discarded as necessary.

[–] FastEddieB@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Kid's probably on the debate team, they live to argue. Good luck figuring out their real opinions though, they might not even have any.

[–] Emma_Gold_Man@lemmy.dbzer0.com 71 points 1 year ago (13 children)

Probably because one of his alts was on dbzer0 and was banned for transphobia

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 58 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

Oh. Oh that makes so much more sense. His sad little idea of vengeance is to now attack anything piracy related and get dbzero ostracized from LW just because pirates have more morals than he does lol

The troll doesn't care, at all. It got banned clearly or it would be trolling here directly, it's retaliation. Child psychology will tell you everything you'd need to know about that "user".

[–] Tetsuo@jlai.lu 26 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Maybe we shouldn't feed that troll ?

I think in that case a shadowban would be the best way to do it. Or an IP ban if that's possible.

In any case this is giving him even more reason to keep on harassing people for attention.

[–] Landrin201@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 year ago

An entire instance just fed the troll, pretty sure the cats out of the bag on this one...

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 35 points 1 year ago (2 children)

These are the alts, counts, scores, and ban status my instance is aware of:

Well that's a record, not a single positive score in sight from any of the accounts

[–] Gsus4@feddit.nl 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

16 comments, 512 downvotes 🥲

Quite the sense of pride and accomplishment this Bungie fan must be feeling, huh

[–] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Trekkies don't fuck around apparently.

[–] ptz@dubvee.org 8 points 1 year ago

We do not 😂

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

For context, Bungiefan_ak has no fewer than 4 alts that I've seen (all on different instances with the same username)

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 !memes@lemmy.ml continuously spamming heavily transphobic, homophobic, and objectifying sexist "memes".

OF FUCKING COURSE. bridget-pride-stay-mad

I mean, this is one of the benefits of the lemmyverse - using the same username across different instances. It's not subversive.

That's not to lend a defence of this guy - just didn't want having Lemmy alts presented as a bad thing.

[–] Varyag@lemm.ee 35 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Having Lemmy alts is not a bad thing. Using them to circumvent bans very much is, tho.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 20 points 1 year ago

At least he makes them super easy to find by reusing the identical name lol

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 19 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

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.

[–] paralyze@lemmy.basedcount.com 10 points 1 year ago

That's so funny, I'm just waiting when lemmy .world will defederate .ml and beehaw because of them.

[–] alcoholicorn@hexbear.net 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

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?

[–] 14th_cylon@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

not sure if you are serious, but no, that's not what i am suggesting.

[–] alcoholicorn@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (5 children)

Oh, sorry then, I must have misunderstood.

Since federation, a lot of libs who've never encountered a leftist opinion have been calling us russian or chinese bots for not supporting the latest imperialist adventures.

[–] Vendetta9076@sh.itjust.works 12 points 1 year ago

Literally no one mentioned hexbear, or leftism in general, before you did. Quite a victim complex you got there.

I reported that mother fucker. Scum like him are easy to spot and clean up.

[–] empireOfLove@lemmy.one 4 points 1 year ago

As did I, multiple times.

[–] TvanBuuren@feddit.nl 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

How do you people find these alts. I scroll by, like or don't, but I have no idea if they are related.

Do you guys have a 7th sense or something?

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 19 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He's using the same username on different instances, not the sharpest tool in the shed.

[–] TvanBuuren@feddit.nl 6 points 1 year ago

That's kinda a giveaway.
