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.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions from mod(s).
- Provide the cause of the sanction (e.g. the text of the comment).
- Provide the reason given by the mods for the sanction.
- 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.
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.
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.
- 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.

Seems like you got banned because you have long history of using low credibility site as new source, or those who use catchy, flashy headline that mislead reader from the headline alone. And i can see the removal of your posts from multiple different mod.
Try this instead: instead of posting stuff from those site that got removed, look for the same article from credible source, and post that instead.
That’s not really how it seems like at all.
I have actually spoken with different mods in both World and News and after getting further clarification around what sources are permitted and are not (ex. I can use anything that doesn't fall under the “Questionable” list) it was all resolved long ago.
This is also the only time a post was removed for being an 'opinion' article, yet it's specifically mentioned as a cause for the ban?
It's not due to a "history", and most of my posts are well received such as 'White House says health insurance needs to fully cover condoms, other over-the-counter birth control'
Now how about instead of trying to find any excuse to justify this, you address the points made in my original comment?
I can only base my opinion on what i can observe, not on the information you withhold, while i think "misinformation" might be too strong, i don't think it's unfair to get rid of clickbait article on news community, which is the reason i suggest what i suggest. On the other hand, i can't really see and justify what you're currently doing, therefore i can't based my opinion on your point of view. And no, i will not address your point, i'm not even the mod or admin of that instance, your fight is with them, not me.
And calling a non-opinion piece article an opinion piece before removing it?
