If you see around any individual interacting with others through strange antics, displaying weird or troll-like behavior, bot behavior, or similar, either on Lemmygrad or Lemmy, feel free to publish a people’s court case about them if you think they are negatively affecting the Lemmygrad community as a whole.
The usual best way to fight trolls is indifference. So if you think someone is constantly annoying, please block them, and if possible, publicly express your dissatisfaction, so that everyone is aware.
Some trolls like Wisconcom can cause a major disruption in our community, and that’s when we usually step in debating about the issue publicly. You are free to do so in People’s Court as well, it’s the place to collectively solve perceived problems within our community. You are also free to criticize the actions of the administrators,[1] under public scrutiny.
criticize our actions, not our political positions. This would be perhaps more appropriate in Leftist Infighting ↩︎

Worst case scenarios we allow ourselves to directly DM users and sanction them for things that are not necessarily spelled out in the rules – like we’ve had to for harassing behaviour or ban evasion. Lemmygrad is still small enough that we know pretty much every user so it’s something we can still do for the time being.
