I have indeed reached out to the admins and have filed many reports for said abusive behavior about the communities and about the hostile users. I have yet to hear back from the admins and this is not my first time reaching out.
Ooh baseless strawman arguments, my favorite, you will notice that this post is not calling for or asking anywhere for defederation, but that’s what happens when think and speak before you read.
Or you assume that everyone on this forum is calling for it because you prefer to lash out at people than to listen to them because you don’t like or are bored by discussion of real issues.
“I hope you get stoned by your terrorist friends for supporting gays… Fuck you.”
“Nukes. That’s how.”
“Fuck that, they need to remove all.”
“Can you stop spamming, if you want to kill yourself thats your choice and right to do, but please dont annoy others with it, bridges are a great choice, or maybe a noose if you know how to tie knots, dont use drugs they often fail and cause long therm problems, if you are in the US a gun is of course also a option. Have a nice day and maybe just eat a Cookie and rethink before making a final choice.”

We must have completely different definitions of what is considered toxic or violent then. Blocking doesn’t fix that, it’s what you do for people that hurt youw feewings, not for people who are dangerous, that’s why I’m reaching out. But hey you just tell people to block because its standard fucking procedure on Lemmy and probably elsewhere to assume that problems aren’t real and that everyone are just special little fucking snowflakes who should cover their ears and close their eyes.
These were Already actioned by the subs respectively, you can see them in the modlog if you search his username, he also had a few others which disappeared or just weren’t there and couldn’t find them on the modlog, which I guess he deleted, I don’t remember it verbatim though so I can’t quote it but more stuff encouraging massacring people or blowing them up.
before people criticize me I am not using my main account because I do not feel safe bringing up these issues there, as these people and issues still are not dealt with. I do not want to put myself in danger, I will not be engaging in or attempting to post polls or votes here....
aaand this is how you know that valid concerns are being treated as if they are worthless feelings or opinions, great job guys (I know that there are for real whiny people like this but seriously).
Also it’s a bit frustrating because I bring up something that is potentially a serious problem to the health of the instance, because getting defederated or even raided (dramaticcat might not get us raided or widely defederated but our other user who I’ve disclosed to the admins but not publicly for my own safety might). So obviously it’s imperative that I not block either of them on this account.
For the record I do block people on my main account (and did block them there), I block a lot of people and communities (probably will do instances when that’s available), it’s also kind of the point of why I’m doing it here and not on my main (that and I don’t want death threats, DDoS, and Porn sent to me, again dramaticcat isn’t my main concern with that one, the unnamed user is, I decided to bring two issues at once because I figured people would think I was dog-piling to bring them up in separate issues (I’ll make a note not to do it again in the future).
I guess not strictly news - but with all of the vitriol I have seen in discussions on the Israel situation, that have boiled down to arguments over wording, I feel that this take from the BBC is worthy of some discussion....
Hi I’m not related to that individual I just found your comment thread doing searches, I haven’t heard of the Lemmy software being able to do IP bans anywhere, would you mind sharing where you heard this information.
As far as I know the only way to do “IP Bans” on Lemmy is to manually block them from the server’s firewall but that’s not a Lemmy software feature, it’s a server feature, and it was also always possible.
