YDI, what did you expect from going there and downvoting all or even most of the contend there? You are aware that mass-downvoting is considered an act of aggression against communities, as it's literally an attempt to downrank their content in the feeds. Many instance admins also don't take kindly to this either, which is probably why they instance banned you from there. This instance that YPTB is hosted on is literally voting for a rule change banning brigading, and many more in the future will likely follow.

If you dislike all of a community's content, you should use the function to block communities. If you believe it is against the rules you should report it by reaching out to admins. Spamming downvotes won't help in either case, it won't make you stop seeing it, and it won't address problematic or rule-breaking content. It just makes you seem like a bot or a troll.

Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

749 readers
68 users here now

This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.

Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.


Posting Guidelines

All posts should follow this basic structure:

  1. Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
  2. What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
  3. Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
  4. Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
  5. Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.

Rules


Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.

Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.

YTPB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.


Some acronyms you might see.
