I logged into Kbin today to see 18 notifications where the same guy banned me from all of their magazines for downvoting them.

I was only subscribed to 1 of those magazines, but it’s still annoying to wake up to 18 ban messages from someone who got easily angered from a downvote.

(Side note: IMO, this is why being able to see downvotes is bad. Even if anyone could see them by spinning up their own instance, that’s a lot of work compared to pressing 2 buttons.)

I’ve blocked the guy, but is there anything that can be done to stop this from proliferating across the site?

    To be fair, wouldn’t an admin always be able to see your downvotes, even without the current completely open view of it? Admins in general usually get information you’re not privy to on sites.

    That said, your best bet would be to just find magazines that offer the same thing, just not run by him. Or make a new one. If he keeps it up you’d likely get traffic.
