UniversalMonk ban evasion (slrpnk.net)

UniversalMonk has been evading the a ban on him by posting from new accounts on [email protected]. That's ban evasion, which on most instances leads to an account-level ban, as far as I know. The relevant account is [email protected].

I'm not sure how to notify admins on lemm.ee, so I'm posting here. If ban evasion justifies an account ban on lemm.ee, then it's time. If there's a better place to send this note, let me know, and I'll do that instead.

Is having the same username on other instances a ban evasion though?

I was under the impression that a ban evasion would be being banned on an instance, creating an alt name on that instance, then continuing to post on that instance.

I thought the whole fediverse model was based on the fact that if your voice is sileneced on one instance, you could go to another instance. As long as it's not for spamming or trolling.

This is a serious question, not being facetious. I have not been banned on lemm.ee or slrpnk, nor have I posted in [email protected] after being banned there--in fact i didn't know I was banned there until just now.

I'm not sure what you're meaning. I'm not sealioning, I genuinely don't understand what you are so upset about.

Here are my post logs from both accounts:

Being the same person who was banned, and posting from a new account, is ban evasion.

You can find a place that can put up with you, if you want to try. That's the sense in which your voice won't be silenced. The same people who've seen what you have to say and want no part of it are not obligated to continue listening to it forever, with you disabling their attempts not to hear from you anymore. That's protecting their rights to use Lemmy as they want to use it.

He will drown everyone in a never ending back and forth about minutiae of the rules while never addressing the obvious and larger issues or his own behavior head on.

Don’t let him troll you. Communities are better when they don’t focus on trolls. Getting rid of the trolls is an upkeep responsibility like weeding a garden; don’t let them shame you or demand justification for it.

Fully agree. I'm finishing up a few replies to other people who had things to say about it, and then I plan to wash my hands of it.
