FYI @rumschlumpel@feddit.org @breadsmasher@lemmy.world @Pfeffy@lemmy.world @superkret@feddit.org @Pending_Jokester@lemmy.world and a few others

A rage bait post they just restored: https://lemmy.world/post/24282976. The initial removal was about rule 3 - no rage baiting. That rule has been removed.

Another rage bait comment against vegans: https://lemmy.world/comment/14535452

Sucks to get down votes not relating to the community, doesn’t it?

Not really, just curious. This community is pretty closely followed, so I’m sure people are going to have a look anyway.

By the way, what do you think about the removal of the “no rage bait” rule?

Since you wont respond to DMs

You have 3 times now, indirectly called for a community I’ve been running to be removed (plus a bonus time after I left the mod team of a community). I’ve tried to discuss with you in DMs, but you don’t respond.

I think the recent politicking you have demonstrated shows we are no longer working collaboratively toward a lemmy for a diversity of viewpoints and communities.

You don’t owe me a response, but we have been collaborators in community building, so I would have liked the curtesy of some response to DMs.

Since our professional relationship has broken down, I can’t collaborate with you on !showsandmovies@lemm.ee any more. I’ve transferred the community to your BoozeOrWater alt and left the mod team. You worked really hard in promoting that community, and by all rights it should be yours.

Can you explain a little more about this? Nothing I’ve seen under this post has been calling for a community to be removed, just explaining a particular moderator action that he disagrees with.

Create post

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.
