We’ve had to create a new sidebar rule, we won’t be enacting it retroactively because that just doesn’t seem fair, but going forward:

  • Rule 7: We didn’t USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you’re posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.

    Is this about that account called “nonaturalgas” or something? Anyway somehow that one always felt off . So good job.

    Correction: it’s name was naturalgasbad and he was also banned. Some other poster stated he posted several pro China articles a day.

      No, they only posted twice that I’m aware of.

      This one isn’t about the quality of the links, the links themselves appear to be fine, it’s just the sheer volume.

      To give you some idea, I moderate some smaller communities and I personally feel like I’m dominating the conversation if I post more than 3 links in a day…

      Roll over to World News and I see 19… 🙄

        Naturalgas posts about 5-10 pro-China pieces a day.

        Honestly I feel like Nekandro is just their alt account , the types of posts felt too similar.

          They definitely do seem to push certain agendas based on the topics. I already keep an eye on him too, especially since he’s on Lemmy.ml which is just Lemmygrad in disguise.

          Naturalgasbad was the one I meant earlier. I saw he was banned yesterday, that’s why I checked whether this was about him.

      They told me they were banned because they kept citing the Ad Fontes Media Bias Chart and the mods here preferred the Media Bias Fact Check ratings.

      Please don’t assume their gender. This is basic etiquette.
