MODERATORS
I just looked at the mod log— ew… I can see what you’re dealing with there. I suggest you just permaban them, as I doubt they’re going to change their behavior. also, keep an eye out for similar comments/commenting styles that might be indicative of alts (alt accounts).
btw, as mod, you can just ban a user right from their comments— you don’t need to report them yourself!
also, for more advice/help, you can consult the Lemmy Moderation Support room on the Lemmy Space on Matrix (link in the sidebar!)
I thought they were coming at me a bit hard, they just wanted to argue with (and insult) me about anything they could. But tbh I can be a bit sensitive so I held off banning them for longer than I might have done if another user reported them for the same thing. Thank you for the reassurance that I wasn’t being reactionary because my feelings were hurt.
I don’t know what I’m missing but I can’t see options to delete/ban while browsing. I usually browse from IOS apps and open lemmy in my phone browser to mod but I used my laptop for this and still couldn’t see it. Also, I’m only given the option to ban for a set number of days, there’s no permaban option. Do I just put a high 4 digit number in?
I will definitely join the mod support you mentioned, and again, thank you for your help!

this is from the community I moderate on lemmy.ml. maybe it’s different for communities on lemmy.world?
I don’t. On safari iOS and chrome on MacBook I click the three dots and see this:
There’s only the option to block or report, not remove or ban. I tried it on more than one comment. Interestingly I am given ban and remove options on the Lemmios app:
These are using the same account, viewing the same thread on the same community. Maybe it’s a lemmy.world problem?
it must be a lemmy.wold thing. each instance does things a little bit differently, but, hey, at least you found a shortcut with the app!
