Comment on I am fucking tired of this shitty behavior.
Snowpix@lemmy.ca 11 hours agoI did notice the sudden influx of new accounts under the cm0002 name, I wasn’t entirely sure it’s actually the same guy or somebody impersonating him. I don’t see why he’d need that many, and most of the accounts are very new despite him having been around for a long time.

Oh, that’s a good point. @OP that is one reason for making it not work the way you describe, it makes it super-easy to destroy any user just by making new alts with their same name and then having them be obnoxious. IDK what the fix is really, it is a real problem that people can make alts to do ban evasion.
@cm0002@lemmy.world I should ask also, are all the described alts actually you?

Most are, but I have had an impersonation problem in the past, so there are a few imposter accounts mixed in there. This is another reason to have these accounts, prevention of it happening again.

Thats actually what I guessed was happening. Sometimes I make accounts on services I don’t use just to “reserve” the username.
