Note for other Instance Admins and Mods:

#MstdnGames has been flooded with bot registrations leaving what appear to be an effortful ‘reason’ for wanting to join our instance. They have all been variations of the this:

“I'm looking for a community that actively engages with leftist ideas and values solidarity, mutual aid, and anti-oppression principles. I want to participate in discussions and share perspectives in a space that is already oriented toward the values I support.”

This is just one example, I’ve seen a dozen variations of this in just the last week alone.

Just a friendly warning that bots seem to be submitting more sophisticated entries to try to get past manual screenings for new user accounts.
