Ye Power Trippin' Bastards

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:
- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
- Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions that you have received from a mod or admin.
- Don’t use private communications to prove your point. We can’t verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don’t deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don’t harass mods or brigade comms. Don’t word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.
- Do not downvote posts if you think they deserved it. Use the comment votes (see below) for that.
- You can post about power trippin’ in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
- If you are the accused PTB, while you are welcome to respond, please do so within the relevant post.
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.
- PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
- YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
- YDM new - You Deserved More: The commenter thinks you got off too lightly.
- BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
- CLM - Clueless Mod: The mod probably just doesn't understand how their software works.

MODERATORS
There's a lot of .ml and hexbear users who moved to db0 because they wanted people to have to see their shit opinions again.
I don't have a judgment on this one, two petty mods fighting
So the vanguard is killing the anarchist community again? Tracks...
Which ones? We don't really like tankie members making accounts here. Part of the process of getting onto here is talking about anarchism.
I was mainly interested in communism as a means to work toward anarchy. But seeing the difference between the bulk of posts pushed me to the Triad, not because I've abandoned my dream as much as I've suspended it to learn more from more practical, less reactionary people with valuable insight and experience. Not that db0 doesn't have less reactionary voices, valuable insight and experience, just more that those voices are occulted from my view because the more frequent, loud reactionaries keep them from showing up on my feed. It's more productive and much less time consuming to just read and converse with active voices on the Triad. Plus the bulk of their time isn't spent grousing about people who hurt their feelings or looking to the past to hang onto it, but only for historical perspective and lessons that can be applied or adjusted to modern developments.
The post that started this from PJ was about db0 tankies.
I don't care enough to ask PJ but they probably recoded the accounts that were causing problems.
No info then. Got it. Thanks for stirring up drama over nothing.
