Same thing happened to me with this user [link removed by staff] who literally just uploaded random photos and a sound of them making a weird noise and the observations are still up but the user hasn’t been active since I found them from commenting on my observation. I flagged all of the observations and the person clearly was just using INaturalist to upload random things, but hopefully the person doesn’t come back until they find out how to properly use it. They haven’t been banned.
