Probably awkwardtheturtle, the Reddit mod with the most to lose and a chip on his shoulder. Reddit did him dirty, absolutely, but the guy gets zeroympathy from me. It was a long time coming and it needed to happen whether Reddit was dying or not.
Sent the three site admins PMs about the new accounts and communities around 10 minutes after /crappy account was created. Had already made over 400 communities in that timeframe.
Well aware. I believe one of the admins is taking care of it rn. u/fuck u/LollaCatt and u/crappy are the three I've seen so far spamming community creation calls.

This is precisely why we have disabled unsupervised community creation and have instead have users submit a request. Highly recommended.

That and a limit of 3 per user per day seem rational.

Maybe it could be per IP, so that way someone can't make a bunch of alts to circumvent the limit.

Maybe account needs to be a week old?

LolaCat@sh.itjust.works · 18 pts · 3y
Just saw this as well. What's even the point? it'll probably take the admins like 10 minutes to remove them
LolaCat@sh.itjust.works · 38 pts · 3y
Also just to add: it looks like they are being made by /u/fuck and /u/crappy, but I don't see a way to report them
edit: now it's /u/LolaCatt, apparently i pissed him off lol

Not really sure what anyone has to gain by doing this.

what do those translate into (from hex, I presume)?
Arete@lemmy.world · 17 pts · 3y
They're probably just chunks of uuids. Not meaningful, just easy to generate programmatically and valid as community names.
