I guess there’s something wrong with your platform. I got followed by over a hundred new spam accounts from your instance

@snder
I dont think their spam accounts. They dont post anything, and their goal seems to follow the same 152 people. A spam account would probably auto-follow and discover. This looks like something else.
Was it some lame attempt at a ddos? It didnt even effect our servers other than to annoy me with notifications. The question is, why us?

It didnt do me any harm so I'm not upset.
My main concern was two fold
1) People may now see I have obviously fake followers and assume my 4.4K follow count is fake. Aside from these new users 4K of them are real. So it hurts me more than helps in terms of impression it gives people.
2) Due to #1 people might think i intentionally created the fake users and thus it may seem as though I am dishonest.
Thing is can the admin even reverse this? If not I may be forced to block the domain just to ensure those followers get dropped as I'm not sure if there is another way.

Yea I will wait it out for now. Thanks for the info
