Nice, the mod who banned users for downvoting is downvoting you.

[–] Draconic_NEO 12 points 2 weeks ago

The irony of her banning people who downvote her when she is in fact a downvote troll.

Lawsy me!

I am amazed at how well I am resisting the urge to troll with all this juicy drama everywhere.

But for real, beaver be trippin, and has been for ages. This was inevitable.

I was concerned about this person a few weeks back. Clicked their name and saw a GOANT wall of places they mod. Instantly knew nothing good can come out of being a mod on 30+ communities. It's instantly asking for trouble.

I'm apparently banned now.
I have no idea why.

We're you participating in the rule 5 ban spree of Beaver?

[–] Draconic_NEO 5 points 2 weeks ago

It seems they are an Alt account of Beaver, also it seems like Beaver decided to delete her account to escape accountability. Like that's really going to do much when we know who her alts and the people who kiss up to her are, that's why it was over 4 mods who were removed from the community and not just her.

Related to these events, I'd bet: https://slrpnk.net/post/12895844

The two other vegan munis are reporting on what's happening. This is why federation, and community redundancy, are important.

Nothing to see here folks, the abusive mod is complaining that they got removed by the other mods for power-tripping, being toxic, and harassing/antagonizing LW's admins. Not really sure what they think this will accomplish since the reason for their removal is very clearly stated and explained in the post on c/vegan.

Didn't the vegan sub go rogue and start massing banning people for downvotes? I say disband the sub, but as a compromise, allow them to continue their vegan diets slash lifestyles.

This will get you up to speed:

This is the “rogue” mods being removed. OP is a friend or (possibly an Alt) of one of the “rogue” mods.

[–] Draconic_NEO 4 points 2 weeks ago

I wouldn't say that, it was just a handful of mods who had gone rogue, now that they're removed things should improve.

Like like TheTechnician has been banned too now.

[–] Draconic_NEO 1 points 2 weeks ago

This account is deleted too? Who can say it's surprising, just makes it that much more obvious this was a sock-puppet, since she deleted it after TheTechnician exposed it as her alt account.

That's the mod who banned me for disagreeing with them the other day lol

It was obviously Beaver, Beaver is the one who started Mass-banning people for downvotes, also this account which made the post is likely an alt of Beaver as well.

Edit: Beaver deleted her account likely to try and cover up what she has done and the fact that she was removed, the modlogs still show the evidence of it, as well as TheTechnician's statement on the situation.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 weeks ago

Not him but it was Beaver - there's a whole thread on her actions in /c/vegan
