Yeah, if mod/admin does not fill in a reason it does not show indeed. But overall, it is supposed to show why the ban is issued.
We want all moderators and all admins to fill in a reason, also for later reference. I will make sure we will bring it to the attention of the (new) mods again. :)
We have added you to the moderators. :)
We totally agree!
If a user is banned, he/she deserves to know why. You can look up your username in the Mod Log and see the reason and the expiration date, but it is not user friendly. Since we cannot do something about this, it is up to Lemmy itself to fix this. I suggest to do a feature request on Lemmy's GitHub.
Regarding the who in your question. We understand that you know who did ban you, and you get the information if it was a mod or admin. If you're banned you can always appeal! Mail us at [email protected] with your username. We have a system internally that ensures another admin reviews your appeal. That way it stays fair.
The reason we have hidden usernames in the Mod Log is to prevent harassment. This occurred several times when the usernames were not hidden.
Hi!
Great that you want to help us moderate!
Do you have a lemmy.world account? That's needed if we want to transfer the community to you.
If you have, please link a post where you have commented, so I can transfer the community to you.
I transferred the community to you! If you need any more help, there are some people in the thread offering a helping hand!
Why are you always so fast...
We as admins still can see the posts and reactions. So that's a good thing. But it seems we cannot open it up to the other users without having much federation issues. We will look into this, but we need some more time. I will get back to you!
Can you try to delete your cookies? Should solve the problem.
Otherwise CTRL+R can maybe help too.
Thank you for your message. We have transferred the community to you since the original creator of the community seems inactive.
Good luck and thank you for your help! :)
Seems to be deleted by the only mod. Such a shame, I was subscribed to the community too...
Since it is a user action and not a mod-action, we cannot reverse it.
We can purge the community as a whole. So someone else can start over the community. Are there any volunteers to be a mod?
For those who have pre-ordered it is already here, the rest have to wait a little longer. Starfield is finally here! Have you bought it, why or why not? If you've already played it, what do you think of it? We are very curious!
Discuss all things Starfield below!
It's that time of the year again. From 23 aug 2023 – 27 aug 2023 there will be a lot of extra game-news. Dicsuss the event in this megathread!

Developer: Larian Studios
Review Aggregator:
OpenCritic - -1 average - -1% recommended - 13 reviews

Baldur's Gate 3 shocks me with it's high level of player freedom found in customization, decisions, and consequences, and the compelling stories, both micro and macro, mixed with the expansive gameplay possibilities.
Checkpoint Gaming - Edie W-K - Unscored
Although my time with the game hasn’t been enough to yet form a full critique, I can already tell that Baldur’s Gate 3 is a very impressive feather in Larian Studio’s cap.
GGRecon - Ava Thompson-Powell - Unscored
Larian Studios is on a heck of a hot streak, and Baldur’s Gate 3’s early signs suggest it could be the studio’s biggest success to date. With rich lore and ample customisation for how you approach the world alongside gorgeous visuals, it’s shaping up to be a title that I’ll remember for a long time - and I’m only in Act 1.
GamesRadar+ - Ali Jones - Unscored
For now, suffice to say that Baldur's Gate 3 feels a little bit like Larian has accomplished the impossible. This is an entire, years-long pen-and-paper roleplaying campaign realized in beautiful fidelity, in a way that brings every tiny detail of your mind's eye to life.
GamingTrend - David Flynn, Ron Burke - Unscored
They simply don’t make ‘em like this, and I can’t wait to experience all this game has to offer.
IGN - Leana Hafer - Unscored
On the whole, I really am loving Baldur's Gate 3 so far.
PCGamesN - Paul Kelly - Unscored
Baldur’s Gate 3’s world is beautiful, layered and complex, and challenges you to attack it how you want. And though this is what makes it a little daunting, it’s also what makes me eager to dive back in and see where the adventure is going.
Screen Rant - Cody Gravelle - Unscored
Baldur's Gate 3 is imposing in stature and its best moments are truly memorable, but some early issues with scale suggest an uneven experience.
Wccftech - Francesco De Meo - Unscored
As of now, however, I feel Larian Studios has done a tremendous job, creating one, if not the most engaging cRPG in a very long time.
We Got This Covered - Ash Martinez - 4.5 / 5
An excellent follow-up to its decades-old predecessor, 'Baldur's Gate III' sets a new gold standard for RPGs in the modern age. Though it has its fair share of buggy problems, the vibrant world, intriguing storytelling, and captivating gameplay more than make up for its shortcomings.
ZTGD - Terrence Johnson - 9.5 / 10
The team at Larian Studios are to be commended, Baldur’s Gate 3 is nothing short of a masterpiece when it comes to RPG’s.
eXputer - Huzaifah Durrani - 5 / 5
Baldur's Gate 3 is one of the greatest RPGs of all time, and a testament to the talent of developer Larian Studios.

Hi all!
There are now almost 20,000 Lemmings on [email protected]. This makes us all the largest gaming community on Lemmy, yay! The last few weeks have seen a huge number of good discussions and interesting posts shared. Reports are minimal and the atmosphere in the community is good. We are proud of this and want to thank you all immensely for it!
As the community grows, we feel the need to explain the rules more clearly and add some new rules.We don’t want to add too many rules, but we hope this will be sufficient to keep the place running smoothly. Notes are in italics.
1. Submissions have to be related to games - Video games, tabletop, or otherwise. Posts not related to games will be deleted.
This community is focused on games, of all kinds. Any news item or discussion should be related to gaming in some way.
2. No bigotry or harassment, be civil - No bigotry, hardline stance. Try not to get too heated when entering into a discussion or debate.
We are here to talk and discuss about one of our passions, not fight or be exposed to hate. Posts or responses that are hateful will be deleted to keep the atmosphere good. If repeatedly violated, not only will the comment be deleted but a ban will be handed out as well. We judge each case individually.
3. No excessive self-promotion - Try to keep it to 10% self-promotion / 90% other stuff in your post history.
This is to prevent people from posting for the sole purpose of promoting their own website or social media account.
4. Stay on-topic; no memes, funny videos, giveaways, reposts, or low-effort posts - This community is mostly for discussion and news. Remember to search for the thing you're submitting before posting to see if it's already been posted.
We want to keep the quality of posts high. Therefore, memes, funny videos, low-effort posts and reposts are not allowed. We prohibit giveaways because we cannot be sure that the person holding the giveaway will actually do what they promise.
5. Mark Spoilers and NSFW - Make sure to mark your stuff or it may be removed.
No one wants to be spoiled. Therefore, always mark spoilers. Similarly mark NSFW, in case anyone is browsing in a public space or at work.
6. No linking to piracy - Don't share it here, there are other places to find it. Discussion of piracy is fine.
We don't want us moderators or the admins of lemmy.world to get in trouble for linking to piracy. Therefore, any link to piracy will be removed. Discussion of it is of course allowed.
We hope to have clarified the rules and why we apply them. If you have any questions or feedback, please let us know below!

Yes it indeed should.
We as admin can see who banned you. That's why we introduced our internal appeal system where a different admin handles your case once submitted.
