It has been brought to our attention by multiple /v/ProtectVoat users that some SDBH users have been participating in a variety of 'organized brigades'. The leader of these attacks appears to be the infamous @w00zi. We have heard reports of CabbageGate and BreadGate - very organized attacks that crippled /v/ProtectVoat for hours. Voat's protection is in their hands, and we cannot sit idly by as they are brigaded.

The moderation team has had a discussion and have decided there is only one way to resolve this. We are going to be offering our full assistance in helping /v/ProtectVoat moderate their subverse by imposing some new rules:

Voat has many user boards, and unfortunately you are not allowed to post to some of them. Subverse moderation tools like 'ben' and 'delete' appear to only work in default subverses and SDBH/SBBH. It's unfair to think that your post will be properly moderated if you violate another subverse's rules.

Any user caught posting outside of /v/SDBH will be immediately doxed. @0x00 gave us some amazing CSS to help us track the geographical locations of all SDBH subscribers.

Users are encouraged to post about any other user they see violating these rules.

Users are encouraged to aide in the doxing of any suspected of brigading - even before they are proven guilty. This will help reduce turnaround time for the toxic users.

Thank you for reading.
