Hi Lemmy mods, Is there a way to ban an account that never posts in a group, but reports other posts with some Dwazou reason that sounds like a reddit reason. I ignore but wish it would stop. pretty sure its a bot or a real weird person. ๐Ÿค–

it's like the bot just targets certain accounts and reports all their posts in w/e community. seems like a lemmy loophole. like can't appoint a mod who has never posted in the group. context menus don't give any mod options for reporters.

Recently, I've been trying to only report them once per account per community so it's not a flood but have probably lost track and done some repeats. Only human, after all.
