If it's too late, close the registrations. Encourage the people on your instance to move to other instances. And maybe if it's still too much, shutdown the instance gracefully. Inform your people, give them time to move on. Do it early, this is much less draining and frustrating than trying to run something that isn't working anymore. ๐งต ๐

Gawd yes, please! I'm tired of bad or non-existent moderation separating me from large groups of good and interesting people because five or six determined a-holes just run wild with no consequences. :(
