What happened this time?
@Zauberin Our instance got a notice that our admins silenced the instance due to a sudden uptick in spam bots.
@NinTheFolf Suddenly reminded of the spammer invasion with Identi.ca a decade ago (twitter clone)
And for some bone-headed reason, the developers thought it would be a good idea to handle abuse reports by publicly @-mentioning an admin account.
And as a result, anyone who reported a spammer would get falsely reported for spamming by the spammers in retaliation >,<
