If I make an account with the username “Lost_My_Mind_1” and keep upvoting your comments, it would look like you were doing voting manipulation and both accounts get banned.
Oh, ok. I am stupid then. I thought you were saying that while logged into
ERROR: Earth.exe has crashed, you would navigate to Lemmy.World/c/Lost_My_Mind-1 and downvote some kind of ghost account.
I was like “Small brain doesn’t understand. Big stomach is hungry!!! ME WANT FOOD!!!”
How to get someone banned.
Step 1: Copy the targets username but add a “-1” to the end of their name.
Step 2: Upvote every of their comment.
Step 3: ???
Step 4: Congrats, you are an asshole!
Are mods actually dumb enough to assume someone would be dumb enough to include their own username in the vote brigading account though
Eh, mods are kinda like cops, shoot first ask later.
Mods are no different from normal users. They’ll ban you if you say something they don’t like.
…? I’m stupid. I don’t get it.
I think they’re suggesting it would seem like the user is upvoting their own comments with an alt, which could get them banned.
