    By the time we received complaints about your comments, the user in question (cat) had already deleted their account.

    I don’t have time to track down every post of theirs to check for sources. We tend to do that when people report posts.

    The post that was reported that was submitted by cat was this one:

    https://a.lemmy.world/lemmy.world/post/25907073

    Nothing wrong with that post. The reason given in the report:

    WTF is this power user stuff? That's a lot of freaking posts in less than a month

    Again, prolific posting isn’t against any rule. The post didn’t break any rule. Why would I remove that?

    Now, on to the reason I gave a temp ban.

    Comment:

    
What the actual fuck? My entire goddamn feed is this one account…

    Attacking the user for posting? You may not like them, but again, we only received one report on that user. Apparently their content, while aggressive, broke no rules, and upset nobody until today, according to my reports and mod logs.

    Next:

    Touch grass. Good lord. You’re carpet bombing multiple communities with repeats of the same crap.

    Another personal attack against the user.

    Next:

    I’m not blocking an account that could easily pivot and start blasting multiple communities spanning multiple instances with subversive information.

Much better to bring awareness to such ridiculousness. The motives of an account with such activity should be questioned. ESPECIALLY since all posts are in news and politics communities.

    Another person attacking them for posting. Do we attack Flying Squid, Admiral Picard, MicroWave, or others for contributing more than other users? Again, they broke no rules, and we received our first complaint about that account today.

    There were a lot of people attacking that user, and a lot of reports on the comments attacking that user. Those are just a few examples.

    Yes, I moderate, but I have a ton more going on in my life, so I’m not always on Lemmy to see what’s happening, and I do rely heavily on reports to find points of pain in the communities I moderate. I also rely heavily on the rest of the moderation team, as well the great tools that people like @ptz@dubvee.org make.

    If you go through the posts in this community, you’ll see tons of places where I personally have worked with other users who had complaints. We try to be fair, but attacking users is a violation of our community rules.
