MODERATORS
I messaged one of them. But it's such a big sub, that it wouldn't shock me.
Yo! I was the one that banned you. I have looked at the Modlog, and I still feel like itβs justified. Your ban is only temporary, and meant more as a warning to refrain from using personal attacks. Know that you are very welcome to post, if you follow the rules of the community.
If you have any questions, let me know (:
Oh! I appreciate the response. Seemed to come from nowhere. I was engaging with an obvious troll and just saying "no u" to his attacking of me. I didn't think it was so treacherous.
Yea no problem. There was one comment where you called them stupid (and one where you implied the same), and you did the same to someone else a two months ago (we look at the modlog for that stuff). The culmination of that leaded to a temp ban. That's our standard policy. We suggest reporting and not engaging with obvious trolls (;
We also don't like that a ban isn't made clear to the one that was banned, but that seems like something lemmy itself has to fix.
Edit: I also unbanned you, because it seems like a genuine mistake.
Oh I thought I was calling their comments stupid. Like they were unaware of how they were trolling everyone. I hear you. I will watch for it. I appreciate the response.
I don't know why, but this whole interaction made me feel nice and tingly inside and I wanted to point out how civil and nice everyone has been :) (mostly xD)
We do our best (:
Reverse text emoji... repeated offense... by an Admin... instructions unclear...... π
Is this a joke I'm to dumb to understand?
The joke is reverse text emojis are evil and used by trolls, and you said to report trolls... π€· maybe it's a generational thing.
Are personal attacks allowed in this sub? Can I call you something mean?
I know of a few communities that are already breaking two of those rules. π
The modlog is public and you can use it to look up your username and the ban or removal reasons. This was not an action of a single moderator and the actions look justified tbh.
Why aren't people notified of this in an individual way? Seemed to come out of nowhere. I had no idea I was banned or why. Unless I posted here I would have never known nor would I even keep exploring the subject.
It's how Lemmy works unfortunately, doesn't let the user know any of the moderator actions taken. But you can do a search in the modlog.
It's something the clients could work around. Auto search the modlog once in awhile and send you a message with the details on a fresh hit.
Which doesn't help if a person gets IP-banned from the site.
There is no such thing as ip-bans on Lemmy
I kept getting a Forbidden message for about a week a while back shortly before the first update to 0.18. After the update the forbidden message disappeared. I seemed to be the only one affected and when I used a VPN it allowed me to access the site.
When I asked around on other instances online it turns out you can be IP banned entirely from the site and it had happened to a few people.
The only contraversial things I did/said was to jokingly ask an admin "how long before you turn into Spez?".
