It has become apparent that @rodneyck@lemmy.world has been manipulating votes by voting with multiple accounts on other instances.
At the very least, on this post they have upvoted it using multiple accounts with the same username on different instances, as well as multiple votes in the comments of that post. It's very likely they are doing the same on all their posts.
They are also harassing other users by digging up comments/posts then lying about them in order to slander the other person.
The comment chain on this thread shows this behavior: https://lemmy.world/post/32414918/18033196
(Note that there is an unmarked NSFW image from that user in the comments. This was used as an attempt to harass another user.)
-- Edit -- @rodneyck@lemmy.dbzer0.com is now here with some pathetic spin and conspiracy bullshit. They are trying to act like a victim like the whole issue has to do with AI when it's entirely about them harassing users and a painfully obvious use of alts for manipulation. They even went so far as to post a porn image, in an attempt to harass another user, in a comm that has a clear rule against posting porn. The problems with this user has nothing to do with their sad use of AI.
@DeezDohNutz@lemmy.ml is clearly another alt of their's. Not only did they never post anything until now and show up here at nearly the same time and use the same phrasing and ridiculous arguments, notice how they have the same exact text in their user bio.
Shit behavior but the constant anti ai bullshit is so annoying. He's 100% right when he talks about the tag teaming and brigading. I don't even think the meme is AI, I think he's messing with you guys when bringing up the egg. If you check his history, it's just reposts.
It's a meme community, the "AI slop" crusaders really need to learn to relax.
What is far more annoying is AI constantly being shoved into everything and everywhere. It's impossible to escape. People are far more tired of shit AI than anyone could possibly claim to be about "anti ai."
He’s 100% right when he talks about the tag teaming and brigading.
Absolutely wrong. Brigading and "tag teaming" would require a concerted effort. What you're claiming is just separate individuals who all don't like AI being shoved down their throat everywhere and people attempting to pass it as genuine content.
Marking AI content as AI generated and allowing people to filter it out would solve all of these issues. That is the only real disconnect. Don't try to turn it into some bullshit conspiracy theory because you're encountering other people who disagree with you. That shit is worse than what you falsely accuse as "brigading" and "tag teaming."
More importantly, there is no need to bring that argument in here. Why even try to bother with supporting that argument here and now when this is a thread about a user being a complete scumbag and having been manipulating votes. This thread is not about that argument at all.
I think he’s messing with you guys when bringing up the egg
That's harassment. Why even defend this behavior? Why are you here? Just to complain about "anti ai"? This is not the time or place.
I'm not endorsing the vote manipulation, and in fact we immediately banned all his alts from our instance as you are perhaps aware, but didn't mention here, and the user has been warned not to do it again.
But it honestly seems a bit pathetic to be crying all over Lemmy just because someone decided to give you a taste of your own medicine for a change tbh. Especially when you and your contumelious mates go around bullying and harassing folks all the time. Don't you have a shred of self awareness? Your behaviour is 100x more toxic than any genAI image will ever be.
My own medicine? Are you saying I dig through people's post history and make up lies in order to slander them? Are you saying I post porn in communities that explicitly have rules against it? Are you saying I use multiple accounts to manipulate votes which violate the Lemmy.world rules in order to benefit myself and my comments that harass users? This entire thread has nothing to do with AI.
Do you have any shred of awareness? You should be ashamed.
