Mepi

[pixy0stix]

What is your end goal here? Are you just endlessly going to create new accounts every time you're pushed thinking we don't know you have a new account?

[mepi]

Yes it’s me the great deceiver using the first two letters of each word of my last username….

I’d have gotten away with it too if it wasn’t for you smart kids

[pixy0stix]

So... yes.

EllieArroway ,y4m ,@astrid,cjeanette ,esdreturns ,vanillacourage ,05heel , if this person creates a new name, please don't approve. She/they keep creating new usernames to troll the board.

ETA: HRH Queen Dick I, do you approve new users too? I'm tagging you anyway.

[mepi]

If I make a post and it’s of a differing opinion to yours, that doesn’t make it trolling. If you’re upset about what I say, that’s a you problem. Figure out what exactly is provoking such a huge reaction for you, that you feel personally attacked by what I say. I’m just here making posts about the ongoing genocide of Palestinians.

[erbear]

You're doing so without any consideration that multiple people have told you over and over again that they do not wish to engage with you on this. And you keep coming at those people. So stop.

Hey all, this was indeed meanprincess. The IP has been banned, so we'll see what happens now.

[HRH Queen Dick I]

Vanillacourage sadly passed away. I think Cjeanette, astrid and 05heel haven't been here for years. That leaves Ellie, y4m, esdreturns and me.

There has definitely been a rash of new requests to register. That usually means some nonsense is going on. In those cases I tend to reject everybody. Oopsie!
(Sometimes another mod approves it first, however.)

Motion to institute a moratorium on new members until any trolls out there get bored and move on. All those in favor...🙋‍♀️

[pixy0stix]

You're right, I knew that about vanillacourage. The "global mod" button needa to be updated.

I'm fine with this. I can't IP ban, and I do try to figure out if the requesting user is a troll or not. I don't always get it right though lol.

Should we just leave requests pending or just flat out deny?

Sorry, I didn't want it to sound like a call out...just that the whole registration issue has been at the back of my mind for a while.

Like I said, sometimes I go rogue even if it's not a bad IP.

AOL/Hotmail account? Go back to the 90s, Rejected!

A man's name? Sexist I know but Rejected!

[e-mail]? Rejected!

I have posted to ML asking that new users write a note with their request, explaining who they are. A bot/troll could still do that and appear normal but it's worth a try.

Or just REJECT for a while. Let me tell you...it's satisfying.

[pixy0stix]

Lol! And they were worried about giving ME global mod powers.

Keep up with who's still on this board or this earthly plane and maybe someday you'll be one, too. Good luck!

[abs]

LOL based on that criteria I would be rejected if I was registering today but honestly that’s fair as well.

But Mepi isn't even the first two letters each of meanprincess. Wrong detail to focus on, I know, but it's bugging me.

This was bugging me way more than is reasonable yesterday too.

This comment makes me feel validated
