May I ask what sort of trolling is happening? If it's possible to describe without accomplishing the troller's goal, of course. I suppose it's largely morbid curiosity, but I am curious if it's political or some buy-viagra kind of spamming...

@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.
Trolls at the gate — I've turned off user registration for a bit. If you urgently want a new account, feel free to contact me by email or fedi.
