Got banned from Gaming@lemmy.zip community, because why not?
(reddthat.com)
WOW
I expected mods outside .world, .ml and beehaw to be kind of normal. Turns out nope.
Does everyone here exist to further his agenda and just that?
Did people just forget that talking exist?
It started to feel like:
On Reddit, the highest crime you can do is working againest the Algorithm.
On Lemmy, the highest crime you can do is just saying anything that people might not like.
BTW, none of my posts on the gaming community was political.
I guess I will have to wait for further bans to come, to be 100% sure that I am currently using the right communities.
Context. (Not sure)

The fuck? They banned me from their entire instance:
Clicked the link. YDW
You are a blight upon the world. Please leave.
Leave to where?

Disengage
Leave to where?
Just a heads up, keeping on going after someone says "Disengage" is ban-worthy in this community. I get it. People are jumping on ya, and you wanna defend yourself. But "Disengage" means the discussion has to end. If we don't follow that guideline, most of the comments here just spiral into infinity of back and forth.
So if you don't delete your comment, good chance you can get banned here. I'm not your boss tho, so you do you. I'm only pointing it out because the rule was pointed out to me once and helped me.
I'm not defending you or any others here, just giving you some facts.
The sidebar does not mention any "Disengage" rule.
If I get banned, then I would simply call it what it's a power tripping.
We did not leave Reddit and come to Lemmy so mods could mod by magic, we left Reddit so we can get more transparency.
It's an instance wide rule, not community specific. But given the commenter who used it didn't use it correctly (it's not supposed to be used to have the last word) I'm not going to ban you. Just because you are ignorant of our instance rules doesn't mean they don't apply to you.
I feel like this is a clarity weakness with the fediverse currently.
Communities are bound by instance rules and punish any user posting to them based on those instance rules, but remote users are never informed in any way about a community's instance's rules.
True, but that doesn't change the facts I gave you, friend. Maybe the sidebar will be updated or something. Either way, I have seen people banned for going on after the word was dropped.
Listen, I know what it's like to be piled up on. Trust me on this. For a long time, people accused me of being the most downvoted, most hated person on Lemmy (good times/glory days).
Some still think that. So I know what it's like.
Sometimes when the crowd is chasing you with pitchforks, you gotta realize that you ain't gonna win the fight and you just let it go. Doesn't mean you leave Lemmy or anything, but sometimes it's just not worth arguing about. So you move on, and find places on Lemmy that you do like, and carry on.
I was just banned from some place just yesterday because someone called me a troll who was banned from everywhere, and my exact reply was: "Nope. Still here." Boom! Banned there now for ban evasion, tho I didn't realize I had ever been banned from that comm before. lol
Meh, it is what it is. Lemmy ain't that serious.
But like I said, I ain't your boss. You do you. But if you keeping on going like this in this comm, you will def get banned from here. Maybe you care, maybe you don't. I'm just giving you my opinion.
Actually, the sidebar does list it, just not the sidebar for the community. It's listed on the frontpage, in the instance sidebar. Now, if they didn't see that, it obviously doesn't change the fact they are required to obey it, because ignorance is never an excuse.
annndddd now he's banned. I tried to warn him! lol
