Rules:
-
Rule 1: posts have the following requirements:
- Post news articles only
- Video links are NOT articles and will be removed.
- Title must match the article headline
- Not United States Internal News
- Recent (Past 30 Days)
- Screenshots/links to other social media sites (Twitter/X/Facebook/Youtube/reddit, etc.) are explicitly forbidden, as are link shorteners.
-
Rule 2: Do not copy the entire article into your post. The key points in 1-2 paragraphs is allowed (even encouraged!), but large segments of articles posted in the body will result in the post being removed. If you have to stop and think "Is this fair use?", it probably isn't. Archive links, especially the ones created on link submission, are absolutely allowed but those that avoid paywalls are not.
-
Rule 3: Opinions articles, or Articles based on misinformation/propaganda may be removed. Sources that have a Low or Very Low factual reporting rating or MBFC Credibility Rating may be removed.
-
Rule 4: Posts or comments that are homophobic, transphobic, racist, sexist, anti-religious, or ableist will be removed. “Ironic” prejudice is just prejudiced.
-
Posts and comments must abide by the lemmy.world terms of service UPDATED AS OF 10/19
-
Rule 5: Keep it civil. It's OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It's NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
-
Rule 6: Memes, spam, other low effort posting, reposts, misinformation, advocating violence, off-topic, trolling, offensive, regarding the moderators or meta in content may be removed at any time.
-
Rule 7: We didn't USED to need a rule about how many posts one could make in a day, then someone posted NINETEEN articles in a single day. Not comments, FULL ARTICLES. If you're posting more than say, 10 or so, consider going outside and touching grass. We reserve the right to limit over-posting so a single user does not dominate the front page.
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

MODERATORS
When you become a mod here, you can do it your way.
Yeah I would actually understand what I'm enforcing tos if using it as a way to remove users I don't like.
I don't particularly like you right now. I'm not planning on removing you unless you also decide to praise and defend a group that has murdered thousands of children.
Like Israel, or the United States, or Russia, or UK, or Canada. We live in a world where every country has done that.
Also ironically not why you banned them but whatever. World continues to move to be reddit 2.0
And why is it that I banned them exactly? Let’s see some evidence to back up your claim that it was not for the reason I stated.
Really reads like you just got tried of them, didn't like dealing with their reports or actually thought they broke tos enough that was worthy of banning them but leaving up what broke tos.
Either way not anything about countries killing kids
I see, so you have no evidence for your claim whatsoever and have just decided I'm taking some sort of revenge against them.
Weird, then, that I posted a warning in another thread about the Houthis that anyone else would be treated accordingly.
Again, I don't like dealing with you, because you're being extremely rude, but I'm not banning you because you aren't doing anything that would necessitate a ban. You're just being needlessly combative about someone else's issue.
However: If you truly believe that I have abused my power as a moderator, there are instructions on the front page of lemmy.world on how to contact the administrators. You know what to do.
Ah yes the it was posted under the basement makes it look better
Sounds good. And definitely not being rude but thinking that really shows the situation.
