    They should be charged for trying to attack a service using malicious practices. People only learn when their actions have consequences.

      Sure but this won’t stop until it’s not possible or worth the effort/resources. So I’m wondering if there’s a technical restriction that could be put in place for such behavior. Maybe instances should just start limiting the number of new communities someone can create in a certain amount of time on their instance.

        I think one of admins commented saying he added in the last thing, saying there’s a delay but it takes time to delete the existing spam communities

      Agreed. People still think they’re invincible on the web. Tell that to a bouncer at a club or the police. They will f*** your s*** up.
