Some self-absorbed little shit seems to be trying to screw things up for other people...
overzeetop, 
Just to be clear, this is a basement dweller’s temper tantrum. You can smell the cheeto dust, mountain dew, and impotent rage through the screen.

Astrealix, 
I like how this is supposed to be a “fuck it up” action instead of just a very minor inconvenience as well. If you want to fuck it up, do like a DDoS at least if you don’t have the technical knowledge to find exploits.
techno156, It's a minor inconvenience at best. Operators can probably just wipe the entire set communities if they felt like it.
I'd be surprised if there wasn't a way to find communities by created user and wipe them all out that way.
dlove67, Honestly, it’s a good thing.
When people try things like this, it helps that they’re stupid and easy to point to.
It allows the devs to see and fix problems as they’re exploited. I can see an easy “fix” being implementing a character limit on community names.
auhu, 
Also, it's cool to find out that community name length can be decently long. Long community names aren't ideal, but it's still neat to have the option
exohuman, 
And as someone else said, a captcha.
Astrealix, Also probably a rate limit? You don’t need to make that many communities that often.
dlove67, Agreed
MicroWave, 
What a child
necropola, 
The user has been banned but those communities have not been deleted yet (for whatever reason).
hiyaaaaa23, Literally begging for a ban lol.
Give it ~8 hours lol

ToNIX, Must be u/spez going Karen mode.
TheBadTouch, Good. I was starting to think that it was a bug on my part
AlternActive, (edited ) it’s u/LMAO for reference. Just blocked him.
UnfortunateShort, (edited ) It’s a public platform, attacks, whether by white hat hackers or those with ill intend, are to be expected.
It should be double checked whether this can cause a buffer overflow, otherwise it’s just a little annoying.
Edit: Okay, quite annoying, fair enough.
4am, 
Abusing the system to flood the “trending communities” with pure bullshit is a bit more than a “little” annoying.
Sorry you couldn’t squat community names for profit, loser.
