kbin.social is being overrun with spammers. Can we disable registrations on this instance so they can’t keep creating new accounts? Every day I log on, I have to spend the first 20-30 minutes, reporting and blocking a bunch of new accounts.

Here are some that were just created today:

    I’m honestly not sure. I haven’t been seeing too much of these problem accounts myself. I moderate m/politics and it hasn’t been a problem for us yet. I would suggest making a note of which magazines you are seeing this behavior on, and if it’s something that is up your alley, reach out to Ernest to ask for moderation privileges. He’s very happy to give them to others who are dedicated.

      Ya I’ve perused the list, but there doesn’t seem to be overlap. Maybe I should just grab one, any one, to get the hang of it.
