No Stupid Questions
No such thing. Ask away!
!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.
All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.
Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.
If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.
Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.
If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

~~They call it a "Terms of Service" but it includes the rules and regulations.~~
~~legal.lemmy.world/tos/~~
~~It's in the sidebar on the front page.~~
EDIT:
It was listed as a moderator action, and the community it was involved in was [email protected]. This is actually a lemmy.ml instance, and rules from lemmy.ml and the shiposting community apply. Rules from lemmy.world don't apply in this case, rules from lemmy.ml do.
Rule 2 on Lemmy.ml is "Be respectful."
Also, the mod is from lemmy.ml, which generally has a lot of people who vibe with hexbear, and that moderators profile literally says "we do a little trolling." I wouldn't take it personally or do anything about it. Just move on and accept it.
Thanks for your input. I received the message that my comment was removed from "[email protected]", so that combined with the fact the community's rule 2 was "no tiktok posts" led me to believe it was a .world action. Your take makes more sense.
Interesting! I wonder if the automod at lemmy.world is just reporting all moderation actions, regardless of instance origin?
I don't think the automod on lemmy.world works the same way as it does on reddit. I think it does more reporting of moderation actions than doing automatic moderation, but I could be wrong.
Anyway, thanks for your feedback as well. I was aware of how lemmy.world was informing people of moderator actions, and I think it's really interesting that it is including actions from different instances when they're interacted with on lemmy.world.
Automod reports because the users is from here.
Go to your profile, settings, blocks, Instances and add lemmy.ml. That massively helps you enjoy the fediverse more.
Our automod does NOT automoderate anything else than blocklisted urls / words. The notification only happens if:
We will changing the wording of the text soon enough as this is a common missunderstanding.
Thank you, I really appreciate that!
