@ernest - just a heads up that I'm experiencing the same bug - notifications from blocked accounts. Wouldn't normally be an issue, but we've got a couple of trolls that like to go back to old threads and keep replying to try and bait a response.
And eventually, there will be issues with harassment, because that’s just how idiots on the internet are. This is something that needs to be fixed before it becomes an actual problem, I reckon.
Damn, they really don't like you. Have an upvote as fucktard insurance.
The absolutely wild thing is, I literally have only replied to them once, the first time, when I requested they not be a dick to someone. Oh boy, did they take it personally.
I've got a couple like that, especially after I ended up kicking the hornet's nest that's noagendasocial.com. In my defense, they deserved it as they've got literal FSB agents posting there, and I was under the mistaken impression that Adam Curry still had a soul.
On the plus side, Adam Curry labeled me an official disappointment of his, so I guess every troll has its silver whining.
If you’re going to kick a hornet’s nest, kick a big one, eh?
Honestly, I didn't even know Adam Curry was still alive. I just remembered his hair from when I was 8 and watching him on MTV. This Russian troll had popped over here, found out his account was there (and much worse than I thought initially), so I looked up the admin because I was like, dude, if you're American and literally publishing war propaganda from a Russian FSB agent, someone should give you a heads up. Sent him a note about it and that's when things got fun. I honestly had no idea that the place had the rep it did, but damn, there's some dark alleys in the Fediverse.
Ah, we finally got to the point of "anyone who disagrees with me is a troll." Took longer than I thought. This thread is becoming a great way to populate my blocklist.
Nope, just don't wanna deal with fucktards after I've blocked them. Shouldn't have to deal with them 2-3 weeks later popping up on my notifications - not a big ask. Dunno how you got offended seeing as I have no idea who you are.
This dude (the one you replied to) is one of or the person going around on downvote rampages. I noticed this guy downvoted pretty much all my posts for some reason, no clue who he even is, and don't recall having any interactions with him.
That would make me an unhappy camper too... guy seems to have a crab up his ass about something, but I'm sure as hell not gonna try to pull it out to figure out what it is.
That being said, welcome to the fucktard insurance upvote chain! :)
I swear, some folks on here really need to get a productive hobby.
