Shills and Bad Actors

This isn't reddit - if you see someone posting shill content or harassing users, let me know. Ban Hammer is so much more effective over here and the shills can go lick the sparkles off someone's taint versus getting a foothold here, so report bad actors. For the first little while, I'm going to err on the side of "Fuck off and die, shills" with a 90 day ban, then permaban.

Thanks for your efforts Ross. I noticed you and ABC have been making your presence felt more recently, and your kind words to Travis tonight regarding mental health weren’t lost in the ether.

It’s truly a fantastic community with so many members such as yourself, who bring credence and weighty thoughtfulness to this play.

Thanks again for your efforts on this new platform!

- Hey, long-time Lemmy user noticing you guys moving in lately. If you don't mind me asking, what's the PP Show about? What is it?
  
  EDIT: Seems to be a lot of stuff here about Ryan Cohen. After googling him, I guess this is something to do with GameStop?

  We were a very active Reddit group that talked mostly about $BBBY and $BBBYQ (bed bath and beyond stock) and the likelihood that Ryan Cohen and other investors were taking it over through behind the scenes channels. This group had hundreds of people pouring over nearly 3000 bankruptcy dockets to understand the mechanics and likelihood of a resurgence and stockholders being rewarded.
  
  Yesterday, on the day after a very important bankruptcy date and with no warning, the sub of nearly 20k individuals was deleted by Reddit.
  
  We have a lot of memes but we’re focused on facts and the truth always rises to the top.

  The PPShow is a YouTube show hosted by PPSeeds primarily focused on BBBYQ aka the stock of many names. Most of us did end up here following Ryan Cohen’s initial buy in, we’ve stuck around since he “sold” because something about this whole situation doesn’t pass the smell test. PP himself provides a great space for free and open discussion, if you’re looking for the juicy details of why a bunch of fools are so rabid over a delisted stocks I recommend listening to or reading some of the content Jake2b has on X(@sboho), the real hard hitting DD was mostly lost with the old subreddit but Jake is truly on another level with his ability to absorb information and reformat it into a more palatable format.

...the shills can go lick the sparkles off someone's taint versus getting a foothold here...

You, sir, are a poet.

Is there any way to tag users that I'm not seeing? It's one of the more useful features using RES for managing large communities without having to trawl through post history when something feels off. I'm sure you'll be on top of it, but the more aggressive stance with bans can be weaponized by jerks that are savvy with their antagonism.

Much love ❤️. Here's to a safe space 😀
