I logged into Kbin today to see 18 notifications where the same guy banned me from all of their magazines for downvoting them.

I was only subscribed to 1 of those magazines, but it’s still annoying to wake up to 18 ban messages from someone who got easily angered from a downvote.

(Side note: IMO, this is why being able to see downvotes is bad. Even if anyone could see them by spinning up their own instance, that’s a lot of work compared to pressing 2 buttons.)

I’ve blocked the guy, but is there anything that can be done to stop this from proliferating across the site?

    I asked a general question about why you think punishments should bleed out into ither communities and you just gave me an example of a conduct to which you think this super-punishment should apply. You didn’t say why. Do you also think that every country should jail people for doing things that are crimes in other countries?

    I’m 100% against racism, I just want to understand why you believe that someone being inappropriate in a forum about cars means that they shouldn’t be allowed to discuss baking in a separate community with different people where they didn’t say anything wrong.

      My entire comment was the explanation why. Zero tolerance. No racists. Full site ban. No questions.

      And since you want to discuss countries even though it’s a totally different league, yes, I don’t think a drunk driver should be able to get to drive in another country for a period of time. Yes, ban entry from murderers. Yes, a terrorism charge should prevent entering an airplane in any airport.
