can someone just quickly explain exactly what kind of threats were levied against srayzie and/or srayzie's children/family? obviously I read the going away message but I don't know what event it was specifically that made him feel like this was the best course of action (and perhaps neccessary for the safety of children/family).
True, zyklon did that to another user who turned out to be his collaborator, months before he publicly targeted srayzie.
Pretty effective intimidation tactic, don't you think? Plant the seed of what he's capable of, then later turn on the heat and start making death threat "jokes" and suicide suggestions?
That's perfectly fine "free speech" "performance art" that Voat should protect.
And I’m not trying to dump on her. I truly liked and supported srayzie. I knew she was going to delete as we were PM’ing and she told me so. She clearly misinterpreted my response, but that’s a different matter.
What is the point of the submission you linked? What are you saying it illustrates?
Are you saying that the only help available for people who become the targets of creeps is to have the protection of the right group of power goats?
When I see that list, that is what I see.
I also note that cynabuns deleted her own v/ReportSpammers comments when she was investigating Cuckoo 'Ruku's abuse of Voat to avoid being targeted by him like srayzie and I already had been. (Yeah, that fucker put a bitcoin bounty out for anyone who could dox me. Which I reported. To the sound of crickets). I see @Kevdude warning her it was coming.
Cynabuns self-censored to avoid being brigaded. Is that your point? Keep your head down or join the right crew and don't piss them off?

The short of it is, you can’t solve this via ban.
See here for more context:

Why didn’t srayzie use the ignore button?
