kbin.social is being overrun with spammers. Can we disable registrations on this instance so they can’t keep creating new accounts? Every day I log on, I have to spend the first 20-30 minutes, reporting and blocking a bunch of new accounts.

Here are some that were just created today:

    That’s partly a fault of not enough kbin users stepping up to moderate magazines.

      It seems like having more admins here would be greatly beneficial in combatting that problem. Is Ernest open to having additional admins? AFAIK he is the only one, and he’s cleary biting off more than he can chew.

        I’m talking more about admins of specific magazines. I don’t know where Ernest stands on instance admins.
