@LMAO is flooding the site with random communities because they’re salty about being banned for claiming too many community names. They claim they’re trying to “fuck your entire site up” but I imagine it’s a relatively quick fix to delete all the communities they’re creating, LMAO.

    Bad idea.

    I’m making a bunch of communities myself, but mostly to see which communities stick or don’t stick. 3 is too low a number. Like ~10 or ~20 is probably reasonable.

    Not that I plan to truly own 20 communities. But I probably need to create 20 communities just to find 2 good communities with enough followers.


    That being said, power-modders probably need to be automatically culled. There are a bunch of people coming in, not making a single post at all and then creating 30, 40, 50+ communities. You can tell if someone is truly dedicated because they’ll make at least 2 or 3 posts as a “welcome” post, or non-default sidebars (etc. etc.).
