The post in question, if interested:
Also, I don’t know how to see which mod/admin banned me, so if you know how to in the modlog, definitely let me know.
Banned for 7 days, so I’m not super mad or anything - I just thought it was funny.
Honestly I don’t blame them - I’d be embarrassed about people finding out my community was on .ml too.
BPR & YDI. It’s perfectly reasonable to disklike .ml’s moderation practices, but you effectively went into their community just to troll them about it. What did you expect to happen? 7 days seems reasonable to me, and it’s only a community ban.
I mean, if you’re dangling bait, don’t be surprised when the trout start biting.
Bpr, absolutely.
I mean, I get it, ml really does take that extra attention because if the community is there, or a user is from there, chances are that you’re going to run into zealotry eventually.
But when you make the effort to poke at the scab, it’s not really on them when they poke back.
Truth is, of wouldn’t even need to be .ml, if you did something similar anywhere, a temp ban is legit. Shit stirring can only be tolerated so much, so you have to make it clear that is isn’t going to work out the way the stirrers want, otherwise it snowballs
Wow, that’s the real reason why the deleted comment isn’t quoted in the original post. That’s clear YDI case, the moderator did a good job by kicking out the bad faith troll.
What did you think was going to happen with a bad faith comment like that? Totally deserved ban.
I am too lazy to cut-and-paste links, but we were just having a discussion about you. (Just read the last couple of posts in my profile history for more information.)
Oh wow, I just finished making a post over there lol. I’d been gone all day and didn’t realize there was already a post.
YDI. Good decision by the .ml admins.
Look at that, clearly no bias involved at all!
Isn’t that funny the guy who said people should be nice to Nazis chimes in and says blanket trolling .ml for no reason is fine.
Oh I’d LOVE to see where I said that. Please direct link to where I said anything remotely close to that.
ROFL!
Okay, I get it now. You’re one of those people that think anyone that disagrees with you are Nazis, and my opining that you being an absolute shit to people because they disagreed with you somehow makes me a Nazi sympathizer……
Oh, and if anyone happened to check that link, I’d like you to note all the other “Nazis” that told this clown they deserved it.
Fucking hilarious!
I’m going to tag you as “funny!” And keep an eye on you. That’s some quality comedy!
People who defend the deportation of people protesting against 2 million people being starved in a concentration camp are Nazis.
You barging into this thread to defend a concern troll makes it clear how much value your opinion hold. You know how to criticize people to the left of you and the most extremist radical right wingers get a pass.
I’m not defending shit, and haven’t defended shit since this discussion began.
You showed your ass and you got shut down. That’s how rules work. You don’t get to violate them just because you’re passionate about your point. And it doesn’t even matter if you’re right about it-
You broke the fucking rules. Quit crying and get over it.
YDI + BPR. Yup, both.
You didn’t just say what instance the comm is in; you were clearly implying that it’s pointless to engage in good faith there. It falls squarely into rule #2 (be respectful, specially when disagreeing).
At the same time we know how poorly the .ml admin team reacts to things they disagree with. And, even if you were making the comm less welcoming, odds are that you weren’t banned for that, but because you rubbed off the admins the wrong way.
EDIT: it’s relevant to note that I’m often criticising the .ml admin team, as anyone can see here, here, here, here, here. As such, if I’m blaming the OP in this specific case, it’s because I genuinely believe that OP dun goofed. Is this clear?
YDI + BPR
the instance whose name shall not be mentioned 👽 🤣
So what does ml stand for?
.ml Domains are from Mali and are sometimes used for machine learning
Though in this case he wanted to say that it’s a “lemmy.ml” community, a known tankie instance
What’s a tankie?
A Stalin/USSR/CCP/North Korea and sometimes Putin apologist. Authoritarian communists.
I am honestly lost how Lemmy search is working. Out of curiosity I tried to search for Lemmy.ml communities and the only two I can see are meta and paradox.
Marxism Leninism
But what they do is Stalinism
Myopic Losers.
LOL they took the bait.
PTB for sure.
And which of the two admins were responsible for this I wonder. Because the community moderation teams of .ml don’t ever seem to do jack shit.
