Goat is one user. For comparison, do you have an example of someone on the opposite side, or downvoting en masse or drama-baiting for different causes?
Moreover, I would submit that a user downvoting a lot and getting repeatedly banned from other communities and instances for it is quite different to an instance specifically organising downvote raids comprised of multiple users and alt accounts. Does Goat load up alt accounts to downvote?
Where did I say he was, it was an example of admins being okay with terrible behavior because they do it for them.

Goat is multiple accounts and runs comms specifically to do exactly that. See meanwhile on grad on shit just works.

But piefed world help them do that. And as long as they upvote equally or more than they downvote would be considered better than those downvoting or that have content being downvoted.
The point is piefed is built in a way that is easy to game just like reddit.
Honestly at this point I don’t know if explaining poorly or the point is intentionally being missed due to your relationship with the piefed creators

Jordan Lund just runs some local lemmy.world communities. Big communities, and maybe he runs them badly - and lemmy.world absolutely took reputational hits for it.

Right, but is he a part of the sh.itjust.works administration? Does he use those accounts to double-vote negatively against users he doesn’t like across the fediverse?

I can assure you that if an instance opened up on piefed that was being used by the administrators of that instance to target a particular user or users with repeated downvotes or instance via multi-accounting or just general bloc downvoting via multiple people that I could call for its defederation.

Cool, again not the point when it’s instance admins who are okay with the behavior. Especially if it helps get them traffic and users.

How is this relevant to him running the comm specifically designed to drive people to attack others. Even in this thread one user, who doesn’t seem to care about the Jordan Lund shit show, even uses the comm to distract from how world handled the situation that most already forgot or didn’t care about. Rimu himself frequenting the same comm and doing exactly the same attacks to others and other instances is why people have so many concerns about piefed. Other instance admins are doing the same
What ways would you suggest to isolate trolls?
Jordan Lund wasn’t downvote trolling.

Simply looking at frequency and speed.

Trolls are not always frequent at all.
