Re: "Trolls at the gate"

In: u/admin


@gyaradong The point of trolling is getting attention. Even if they're just getting attention from a small group of people in a tiny corner of the internet, they still get that rush from being seen. It's a very sad state of existence for those people.

I missed the drama, what happened? Someone posted a racial slur and said they’re alt-right or something?

Nothing too dramatic, just some slurs and other inappropriate content and subspaces.


Registrations are now back open. You can always @admin to report content that does not follow the Code of Conduct.

@skyjake Thanks for your effort.


Yesterday I was looking for the [at]admin info in BBS' help, but couldn't find it. You might want to add it.


BTW, notifiying the admin openly could make the notifier a target for harrassment.

@michaelnordmeyer Yeah, it's not a substitute for a properly done private Report action.
