Dear @admin ( noc.social ),

This is @purrperl

Here we are again. I am sensing something non-kosher.

It has been weeks, that I have been trying to reach you and have not heard back.

Please send me a password reset email, as I have forgotten my password.

Please respond, and have a nice day!

Thanks,

@ashwin time to move elsewhere? :)

@jorijn

Actually, I moved here ( defcon.social ) and I'm trying to fully migrate to this account.

However, @admin ( noc.social ) is being a c*nt, and not letting migrate my contacts to ( defcon.social )

It's been several weeks, of me trying to contact them, but they're just being a b*tch for some reason. 😆

#MastoAdmins , please take note of this Fediverse pitfall.
Maybe defederate noc.social which seems to be acting maliciously towards me?

@ashwin This seems slightly overly dramatic - Mastodon has a password recovery feature. Have you tried it? Is it simply that their e-mail system is down?

@ashwin If your intention is to contact the @admin from defcon.social, you will need to complete the full name @admin when messageing from defcon.social as just using a bare @admin when messaging from defcon.social causes a message to be sent to the mostly unused @admin account.

If your goal to reach the official support on defcon.social the web page https://defcon.social/home reports it as @support which is just @support when messaging from defcon.social.

Good luck @ashwin

Hey sorry, I didn't see the notifications. See if you got an email from us, I don't check the admin account often.

Thank you, Daniel san.
And Sayonara.
😃

@support

Thanks. My mistake. Anyway, the [email protected] contacted me and I have been able to migrate contacts over.

@support @admin

Just received this phishing message.

Please address this account appropriately.

Thanks!

@ashwin For local support, it is a good idea to use the mastodon built-in "report @ (their username)" often included as an option in or near a post that might violate service agreement. This helps make sure the notification goes to all moderators on defcon.social , instead of just one account on defcon.social.

I saw the reports from others using the usual "report" process and found several accounts from * @ * mastodon.cloud which have started spamming. Defcon.social mods have taken actions about these from our servers.

Notifying the support of a remote server as a source for abuse can also be useful, which you appear to have done.

Good luck!

@ashwin

Thank you for this, there were a lot of those phishing posts this morning.
