[META] UniversalMonk ban evasion (self.pleasantpolitics)

UniversalMonk has been evading the bot's ban on him by posting from new accounts. That's ban evasion, which on most instances leads to an account-level ban, as far as I know.

I made a report, but just in case it blended in with the noise, I'm posting to let admins know that he's now ban evading from these new accounts. As much fun as he is to interact with, and a good test for the bot's throwaway account detection, I think Lemmy will be improved by nuking these accounts.

The accounts are UniversalMonk at lemm.ee, slrpnk.net, and sh.itjust.works. The first two ban evaded in !pleasantpolitics@slrpnk.net, the last one is merely connected to the person who did that.

@poVoq@slrpnk.net

I think I'll make separate posts to the meta communities for the other two servers. I'm not sure which admin is appropriate for this.

Thank you. I was just concerned that posting here would make the problem worse.

And thank you for the explanation. I am fine not posting to this community, I was just concerned since he was trying to get me banned from this instance and contacted admins for other instances as well.

The whole reason I made this my home instance is because of the higher standards. And why I am fighting to stay on here.

I'm happy to move on and I consider the situation resolved.
