    The sad part- I believe it was only a single account which sparked this conflict causing everyone to be at each other’s throats.

      They’re constantly changing their display name too. Whether it’s to be more elusive or to make their numbers look greater.

        Suppose the best solution for this problem- is a better system for handling banned/toxic users…

        Would need to be prob a third party script, distributed amongst multiple instances. But- that would also require a certain level of trust between admins too.

        If memory serves me- back in my minecraft days- we used mcbans, pretty effectively for this purpose.

        For websites / forums, I used cleartalk, which actually worked pretty effectively… but, for spammers.

        I’ll have to take a look and see the level of effort to integrate that into here.
