Trolls and banning

Updates and apologies

Hi all. I’ve been being harassed a little more than usual lately and rarely do I ban or block peeps but sometimes, it’s necessary. Especially when I feel my valued subscribers are being trolled. My Substack was also hacked a few days ago so I have become a little more… vigilant.

A commenter “Will Thompson” (this is a pseudonym), has been incessantly posting on my subscribers’ comment posts so I decided to ban ‘him’ from commenting for 24 hours. ‘He’ immediately wrote a personal email to me (to my protonmail account) in response, to scold me, as you can see in the screenshot below. I have heard this accusation of ‘kids dying’ and ‘me not caring’ before. Somewhere.

In any case, I was getting tired of getting so many notifications of ‘him’ commenting, and ‘his’ comments were getting a bit much, and not really contributory.

Please be apprised, and don’t be afraid to report. ‘He’’s got a team.

Love, Jess
