I got banned earlier today with the message “rule 1”, no other information about why, or which comment broke the rule. As far as I can tell it was this one, which just says “We want the bot gone. That’s it. It’s really that simple.”
So I checked the modlog for other bans, and @[email protected] was banned today as well, also just for “rule 1”, probably either for the comment saying “a stupid bot writing useless bullshit” or “This is what you call “Not listening to criticism.””, neither of which are an attack on any person.
(Also earlier today @[email protected] was banned with the message “fuck off”, which I’m pretty sure is not a reason to ban someone from a major community, but doesn’t appear to be related to the MBFC bot.)
One more today, @[email protected] was banned, again just “rule 1”, last comment being this one, again not an attack on any person.
So what’s the deal here? I couldn’t find any rules for mods on lemmy.world with a brief poke around, but are we letting mods run major communities like little fiefdoms, banning people for criticism?
Not that person again, I lost my entire community because of that troll
I remember that, that was a mess
I asked you directly what link_opens_chest.wav did to be removed and you replied “It’s the strict rules tbh”. Then the entire community spent a week telling you the changes to the rules weren’t wanted before you back tracked. The problems on libertyhub were your doing not a trolls, and it really seemed like your goal was to take over the community and change it to your liking.
I thought that it wasnt a smart decision to discuss his mental health problems publicly
Best part of that was they still immediately turned on Ada after.
So glad Ada did so much to prop up mind in those sagas
LinkOpensChest was the best head moderator I could have asked for, it’s a shame that Lemmy didn’t appreciate him
I both completely understand why you gave it up but hate that it came to that point at all.
Especially on that instance
