It has become apparent that @rodneyck@lemmy.world has been manipulating votes by voting with multiple accounts on other instances.

At the very least, on this post they have upvoted it using multiple accounts with the same username on different instances, as well as multiple votes in the comments of that post. It’s very likely they are doing the same on all their posts.

They are also harassing other users by digging up comments/posts then lying about them in order to slander the other person.

The comment chain on this thread shows this behavior:

(Note that there is an unmarked NSFW image from that user in the comments. This was used as an attempt to harass another user.)

– Edit –
@rodneyck@lemmy.dbzer0.com is now here with some pathetic spin and conspiracy bullshit. They are trying to act like a victim like the whole issue has to do with AI when it’s entirely about them harassing users and a painfully obvious use of alts for manipulation. They even went so far as to post a porn image, in an attempt to harass another user, in a comm that has a clear rule against posting porn. The problems with this user has nothing to do with their sad use of AI.

@DeezDohNutz@lemmy.ml is clearly another alt of their’s. Not only did they never post anything until now and show up here at nearly the same time and use the same phrasing and ridiculous arguments, notice how they have the same exact text in their user bio.

Here is DeezDohNutz@lemmy.ml:

And rodneyck@lemmy.dbzer0.com:

This is just sad.

    Yeah, you need to read the whole story to see how they are abusing those votes, gang behavior, swarming, by someone down-voting them, using this outside tool. I think there are other exploits as well.

      I am well aware of the tool, I sometimes use it myself when it looks like people are manipulating votes.

      At the end of the day, it is just that: a tool. What people want to do with it is a different story.
