I would think these are people trolling the request. Good on them

I cannot work out what the benefit is to them of doing this.

Someone somewhere has paid for those awards. Is it because you can get gifted premium and not pay for it yourself?

It’s like the company had a collective aneurysm.

I’m sure it was hard to step away from being so involved with such an incredibly huge community. Good on you though.

I’m not sure that they would be able to cope to be honest. The power that being an admin, small as it may be, is abused systemically in that organisation. Not sure what they would do if they couldn’t mute/ban anyone and everyone around them.

I had an active 11 year old account that I deleted.

The final straw for me was an interaction with a ham fisted admin these last few days. It really and honestly is a toxic environment there, and the admins are following the lead from Spez, so it’s deeply embedded into the culture.

Thank you for this.

How does one go about finding communities from other instances and connect with them?
