Rules:

  1. Be civil and nice.
  2. Try not to excessively repost, as a rule of thumb, wait at least 2 months to do it if you have to.

MODERATORS
 

To be clear, not talking about this community, obviously πŸ˜›.

What's the point of writing down rules, if mods just do what they want? But I suppose that's the risk you take when you call someone a liar in a small community; they might be a mod.

Edit: I'm not trying to say that mods suck, they perform a useful and often thankless job. Just that it can be difficult for small communities to get a healthy number of good mods, which can become a problem.

It can happen in any lemmy.world community, even if you did absolutely nothing wrong and you wont be told anything, not even that you have been banned or why. You just suddenly can not log in any more and when the ban is over you might even find that all content you ever posted has been deleted and can not be brought back. Lemmy.world admin team urgently needs to improve their banning practice and they should really consider to start answering emails. On the other hand, did I already tell you what a great instance lemm.ee is? They also have a very nice admin team over there ...

Seriously this moderation is way worse than I expect coming from Discord communities. Moderation is handled by a team, a reason for mod action is given and recorded, appeals are possible rules are clear and constantly developing for even more clarity. Mods are seen in the community all the time and are well-liked and have a great deal of social intelligence.

You just described the exact opposite of how itΒ΄s done on lemmy.world πŸ˜‚

You still rant about that you got banned during the CP wave? WITH THAT NAME! oh gawd. The admins saw "Naked" and just banned you with a high chance. Yes. It was responsible, humane morally correct. The result is you got unbanned. CP's dont get warnings so you just got banned. Simple Solution: never use a name with some sexual in it.

You are wrong. I just got a message from an admin, the ban had nothing to do with my username ...
