Perhaps a little tip for other #Mastodon admins and moderators

For the 'typical' gambling and business spam accounts, be sure to always checkout an IPv4 IP to see if there are more spam accounts so you can block the IP also!

IPv6 is much less frequent but if you have the time check it all :nkoHammer:

These accounts are often from Vietnamse gambling sites and don't do much but I simply don't want them on here..

It only adds to a less accurate user count for example

And it's spam.. so!

@stux Yeah, I do that too. Or an account I'm not terribly sure about, check common IP suspended accounts helps too. (Yes, I pre-emptively quickly check new accounts in the account list in the admin screen, often suspend before they even get the chance to spam)
