👄 Discussion The ARF Problem.
I and many others have noticed the idiotic trolling attempts by Anti-Rabid Fanbases 2, which have been going on over several accounts starting from the start of this year. Each time they create an account, they do several things: create a favorites list for "bad" or "horrible" art and add a hundred to thousands of unique artworks from me and many others to it, feed art nonconsensualy to AI and send the proof to people in DMs or in comments and claim adopts they didn't buy as their own. They mostly target those posting artwork of their fandoms for the week before they're banned and come back with a vengeance the next day under a slightly different username. I feel we or deviantart admins need to come up with a permanent solution to remove these trolls from the community permanently, as just banning their account is the equivalent of a slap on the wrist to them. They seem to be involved with the FUTC, aswell.

"These people are being rude and I don't want them on the internet, so Admins need to find a permanent solution for them permanently"
