In forums, some inappropriate means may be used to organize collective actions to suppress or damage a user's reputation. Here are some common methods: 1. **Collective reporting**: Organizing multiple people to report a user's posts or accounts at the same time in order to trigger the platform's automatic or manual review, which may result in the deletion of the user's content or the banning of the account. 2. **Negative comment brushing**: Coordinating multiple people to post negative comments under the target user's posts or comments to reduce the likelihood that they will be taken seriously by others. 3. **Spreading rumors**: Spreading false information or rumors to undermine the user's credibility and image. 4. **Stalking**: Constantly following the target user in different posts to ridicule, humiliate or provoke their speech. 5. **Distortion**: Deliberately misinterpreting or taking out of context the target user's speech content to mislead other users about him or her. 6. **Impersonation**: Creating fake accounts to impersonate the target user to perform inappropriate behavior in order to damage his or her reputation. These behaviors usually violate the terms of use and community guidelines of most forums and should be reported to forum administrators in a timely manner if discovered.
