A place where you can rant to your heart's content.

Rules :
  1. Follow all of Lemmy code of conduct.
  2. Be respectful to others, even if they're the subject of your rant. Realize that you can be angry at someone without denigrating them.
  3. Keep it on Topic. Memes about ranting are allowed for now, but will be banned if they start to become more prevalent than actual rants.

Editing to delete all of this. I am getting real threats again, and I am not willing to have a complete mental collapse over fucking Lemmy for a 2nd time. Fuck this place. And especially fuck all of the transpose assholes bent on making my life hell. I am deleting my accounts permanently, but will leave the content up. Don't worry, you won't need to kill or doxx me, I intend to take care of the former myself.

Oh, that's a good point. @OP that is one reason for making it not work the way you describe, it makes it super-easy to destroy any user just by making new alts with their same name and then having them be obnoxious. IDK what the fix is really, it is a real problem that people can make alts to do ban evasion.

@cm0002@lemmy.world I should ask also, are all the described alts actually you?

Most are, but I have had an impersonation problem in the past, so there are a few imposter accounts mixed in there. This is another reason to have these accounts, prevention of it happening again.

Thats actually what I guessed was happening. Sometimes I make accounts on services I don't use just to "reserve" the username.
