Just woke up
So that this doesn't blow up into drama let me explain that situation from my perspective.
The EU spring festival event died out and most people moved to the Intermediate instance, and I followed. When I joined, almost every vrg person that was online was there. I don't think there was a single rando in the instance at that point. None of us were aware that it wasn't a vrg meetup, because we don't really keep up with rando events that some people on here host.
At some point a few randos started joining and someone figured to ask the instance owner to figure out what was going on. The answer he got was "they're not causing any problems". If he had been told that this wasn't a vrg instance, then that would have been the end of it and no one would have cared. But we all thought it was a meetup, and the standard way of dealing with randos and TDA glowies in most meetups is to votekick them, so most of us simply decided to initiate votekicks and vote "yes" on existing ones. We know from experience that if 1 TDA joins a regular meetup they tend to multiply extremely quickly.

There were 2 people who initiated the votekicks to my knowledge, but if they had not done it first, I would have. It was a simple miscommunication on both ends, and in the end no one was harmed or kicked anyway so it's whatever.
