- Comment on How should Lemmy & Piefed handle voting activity from banned/deleted accounts? 8 hours ago:
Piefed ties your voting habits and how often downvoted so it can flag you if either downvoted too much or down vote up and down sort of equally.
Basically if someone goes against hive mind once or twice can cause getting removed or limited on their instance.

Find people who have low karma
When someone is consistently getting downvoted it’s likely they are a problem. PieFed provides a list of accounts with low karma, sorted by lowest first. Clicking on their user name takes you to their profile which shows all their posts and comments in one place. Every profile has “Ban” and “Ban + Purge” buttons that have instance-wide effects and are only visible to admins.
The ‘Rep’ column is their reputation. As you can see, some people have been downvoted thousands of times. They’re not going to change their ways, are they?
The ‘Reports’ column is how often they’ve been reported, IP shows their IP address and ‘Source’ shows which website linked to PieFed when they initially registered. If an unfriendly forum starts sending floods of toxic people to your instance, spotting them is easy. (In the image above all the accounts are from other instances so we don’t know their IP address or Source). Find people who downvote too much
Once an account has made a few votes, an “attitude” is calculated each time they vote which is the percentage of up votes vs. down votes.
People who downvote more than upvote tend to be the ones who get in fights a lot and say snarky, inflammatory and negative things. If you were at a dinner party, would you want them around? By reviewing the list of people with bad attitudes you can make decisions about who you want to be involved in our communities.
All these accounts have been downvoting a lot (Attitude column) and receiving some downvotes (Rep column). Their profiles are worth a look and then making a decision about whether they’re bringing down the vibe or not.

Because at least I’m piefed you get punished if downvoted too much

Hell world wouldn’t even punish a mod for rule breaking behavior

Anyone who can make it this deep in the thread. Or do you think this is a private conversation on a public forum?
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
Bias on how piefed is set up by their own sign up page?
I’m only replying at this point for others as you don’t seem to read
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
So are just randomly replying
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
Because that makes it easier for them to accept it’s there if they can claim it is something else
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
So links to same page saying it’s features made to do social media credit scores and then piefed issues?
What are you trying to say with that?
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
By not making a system that helps continue that exact behavior with a system that pushes people for being downvoted that exact way or don’t interact with posts how the dev wants.
The ‘Rep’ column is their reputation. As you can see, some people have been downvoted thousands of times. They’re not going to change their ways, are they?
The functionality is exact opposite of what you want. It’s empowering mass downvoting to silence others because that’s how the system is designed.
Because piefed believes monitoring the “attitude” of an account and “repudiating” it are the temporary measures for this behavior.
Again it’s not that’s the guiding principle listed for how they want to have spaces and users behave.
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
Do you read because that’s unrelated to their spam protections.
The scores are for activities the dev doesn’t like not for spam blocking.
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 3 days ago:
There is attitude and reputation

There is attitude and reputation
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 4 days ago:
No they use something else for that, ie limit what new accounts can do.
The credit score is just doing things the dev doesn’t like/shouldn’t be done
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 4 days ago:
I’m just wondering how long the mods or world admins let it go. Usually they kill things like this quickly unless it’s something attacking ml
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 4 days ago:
They’re on piefed so it’s just hidden/inherent to the code
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 5 days ago:
I’m sad at how selectively they use that rule
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 5 days ago:
Sadly that seems to be upsetting some 😞
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 5 days ago:
Love how someone is using that exact same mwog thread to show how the feddit admin was wronged
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 5 days ago:
When avoiding ideas or being challenged yes. When avoiding abuse no
- Comment on Dbzero has Defederated from Feddit.org following its Governance post about the later's Zionist Bar Problem 5 days ago:
Idk if it’s building echo chambers in this case or just wanting to get away from a toxic admin.
See the comments and actively of them before the vote and then as it was happening

That would require understanding or research when they just want to use a gotcha

Turns out the admins and community moderators there lie or just don’t care, mild shock.
