Comment on how to get unbanned from communities?
smee@poeng.link 1 week agoDid you know that the ban reason is written by the moderator and they could write whatever they want - Including subjective views on the situation or even lies?
I don’t think the modlog is supposed to protect the moderators from the bad users but rather users from bad moderators.
No way! People can type whatever they want?
I love the modlog because it frequently shows both users and mods can be lying. A user who claims they were banned for something other than racism who has three racist comments that the mods deleted or admins of a certain instance who claim any criticism of China is bigotry.
In this case I was entertained by the modlog entry.
I think because I warned some users a couple of times over a year ago, that he thinks I’m a sock puppet of the person/people he has banned. When he got angry about my warning the user, I didn’t engage at all. But a year later in that thread about Discovery, I wasn’t paying attention and didn’t notice that I replied to him.
He seems to have a lot of drama around him.
There’s a Ye Power Tripping Bastards community on dbzero. I did know how to link at one point but forgot so this probably doesn’t work: lemmy.world/…/yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0…

Yeah, my favorite bans are the ones from the News communities, with notes like “bad punctuation” or “spreading misinformation” because they posted an MSNBC article.
