I banned someone from a community I made for breaking a rule and being excessively rude, then they DM’d me and after a report their account got banned and I think that they might’ve made an alternative account and have been downvoting/disliking all of my posts. What can I do to stop/fix this, is there a way for me to see activity on my community as a moderator? Sorry if this doesn’t fit here, I don’t really know where else to ask this question. It’s a small community so any post I make will get buried when the moment I make the post it gets downvoted.

I haven’t ruled out that this could just be coincidence but if I can do something about it I’d rather know.

Edit: Maybe a feature request to consider in the future is allowing the user to see activity on their posts, that way if they do notice a trend they can deal with it personally (ie block the user responsible). It’s a feature available on other social platforms and seeing as Lemmy logs that stuff anyways. I dunno it just seems like a nice to have. Food for thought I guess.

Well then if you can’t ignore it, make a new account.

That’s akin to saying “If the fly annoys you then just move to a different house.” I know you’re trying to help, but that’s just not great advice.

The fly is an actual physical annoyance, someone clicking an arrow pointing down is really not

To you. So you’d be okay with me going through all your posts and downvoting them without reason? Just because I felt like it.

That’s akin to saying “no matter what advice you give me I’ll just be contrarian about it and keep on doing nothing but complain”. You must be fun at parties.

Not at all, I was hoping for advice that I can actually put to use. Saying drop everything and make a new account is not practical nor sensible. Also, when was the last time you were at a party?
