It is Gaia's will.

Seriously, if anyone is concerned about a single user a group of users posting too big of the share of new posts, then I think the problem is others not posting enough, not that some are posting too much.

This guy was posting a very unnatural amount in a short time, and he's a troll who's been banned numerous times for advocating violence and spamming. Technically there's a rule that you shouldn't make more than 8 posts in a 24 hour period. I don't know how cut-and-dry that is, but it's pretty clearly made for cases like this one.

What a weird rule.

I can't find any such rule here: https://saidit.net/wiki/index

It's not a hard-and-fast rule, but I think it clearly applies in this case. Technically, this user was already a serial ban evader.

Oh hey. I didn't see it there either, but I Ctrl+F'd "24" and it didn't come up. Thank ya.

I'm not that concerned, just I usually look through the whole /s/all/new/ for a day, and it seemed like it was a lot of him this time, so I decided to count (it's easier than it looks - basically one page + 2 posts=52 vs. three pages without 1 post=149).

Yes. He has been pretty prolific the past 24 hours. I got tired of the Debbie Downer posts months ago, but have learned to live with them. I even find a few interesting enough to read.

Debbie Downer

For me his posts read more like variations on accelerationism idea:

Accelerationism ... call for the drastic intensification of capitalist growth, technological change, infrastructure sabotage and other processes of social change to destabilize existing systems and create radical social transformations, otherwise referred to as "acceleration"

"acceleration" of racial conflict through violent means such as assassinations, murders, terrorist attacks and eventual societal collapse, in order to achieve the building of a White ethnostate

Could be.

I have no problem with a high posting user. I have a problem with a shit poster.

So to make this site great, you recommend AstroTurfing and spamming? What could go wrong?

Why would you say that I'm recommending that?

Because there is no down vote button, and you replied with this:

What do you think you are saying there?

You said that I recommended astroturfing and spamming. I did not. If more users posted genuine and interesting content, then the trolling/spamming won't seem so prevalent.

The problem is they don't know about the blocking functionality.
