That makes no sense. The decision to close this community was made in a pinned post. If that’s not enough engagement the community shouldn’t have been closed.
Well movies and TV was dead anyway, but it had (has) 2.5k subscribers. There’s no way to actually gather up enough of those people at all without some kind of mass ping. Which would annoy people all the same.
Either that’s enough engagement so that’s what they should have done instead of spam thousands of accounts or it’s not enough engagement and they have no reason to spam thousands of accounts. You can’t just decide to start spamming because you want more users in your new community.
It’s done now. It was just supposed to be pinging those who weren’t aware, but had previously interacted on here. It can’t scrape subscribers, so can only go by comments on here.
This is an awful argument. Your justification for spamming is that there was no other way for you to spam people except by spamming them. People who think everyone has to listen to their important message are spammers. You think like a spammer and you support spamming. The fact that you agree with the content of the spam doesn’t change that it was spam. Clearly the new community is very important to you and you post a lot there, but we’re not all you, ffs. Have some perspective and respect other people’s preferences.

You’ve just described spam. Mass unsolicited messaging.
There’s no native way to inform people here of community migration at scale. It’s just a notification that is somewhat targeted.

I don’t consider a one-off targeted notification as spam. You don’t have to “listen” to anything. You can just click ‘x’.
When did I say you have to subscribe and follow this community?
It wasn’t targetted. How on earth can you think for ONE SECOND that pasting thousands and thousands of @ notifications ISN’T spam!!!
Well it was a great way to put yourself on my shitlist.
