Exactly what I thought. A text wall that links to another text wall.

Homie, they inundated everywhere else with their bile, very few people actually came to their instance.

They were the traumatic experience.

I mean, I saw it happen. You argue with one, and twenty others show up and just flood the thread.

But sure, keep lying to yourself about how your friends are secretly caring people or whatever.

Having seen how Hexbear interacted with other instances, I have zero empathy for them. They were an incredibly nasty group of people towards anyone who thought differently to them.

They also made a habit of “raiding” other instances, and outright flooding any conversation they didn’t agree with with the most vile takes they could come up with, or, failing that, the pig shit Gif.

But yeah, they’re secretly caring people, sure.

Amazingly level headed response actually, I have no criticism whatsoever.

I don’t necessarily agree, if a post is clearly within the guidelines of the community, and the mods consider it a quality post, that person probably doesn’t get the community.

That rule seems very… Open to interpretation. Thanks for the info though.

Thanks for adding context, I had no idea what rule 5 was.

Tks

Tl/Dr.

There are a few other users there, but it definitely seems to be just one guy running it.

Nah, the account is still active, they posted less than 24 hours ago.

I wonder if they even know they’re banned?

You can be known to the instance by interacting with communities they federate with, without ever interacting with a community on that instance, right? They’d just have to know your username to block you.

Feel free to cross post, I think it would fit.

I keep expecting to see my name on the shitlist now.

Because a moderator action taken by a mod of a community on a different instance to you, against a user from another instance again, isn’t likely to be of any concern to you. It’s good that we can access that information, but I would like to be able to filter the modlog to only show local actions, and perhaps the option of a global log.

Otherwise, there’s just too much noise.

Mostly, I feel it adds clutter to the log, and is only tangentially related to the instance.

It’s good that we can see it, but I feel it would be better if we could filter it out.

I get that, but can’t those actions federate without showing up in the modlog for everyone? Or have the option to only see actions from that instance in the log?

Damn you’ve got some goofy opinions sometimes.

It’s entertaining though, and that’s the important part.

Given how active the instance is, and that 90% of the local activity is from one community (dedicated to the show 30 rock?), it’s so bizarre that they’re trying to police what happens elsewhere on Lemmy.

Also, as I suspected, there seems to be just one person running the whole thing.

I did have a look at their modlog for comparison. It seems counterintuitive that an action taken by a mod on another instance would show up in theirs. Wouldn’t the act of banning someone inherently federate by the fact their posts would no longer be seen?

It’s as if the entire interaction was fictional, and you didn’t realise.

We’re talking about a fictional username that OP made up, you do understand that right?

Regardless of whether the initial actions from the admin were justified, although I think they were.

Their response was to ban the admin, and reinstate a number of comments they had deleted, which is completely out of line. I think they actually got off lightly, all things considered.

It does seem heavy handed, but given how incredibly insufferable and annoying vegans on Lemmy have been recently, I can’t say I blame the admins for deciding they’ve had enough.

Lemmy.world admins made it very clear they considered the statements being made as animal abuse, and that it wasn’t welcome on their platform, and the community mods actually banned an admin in response, and reinstated a bunch of deleted comments.

I think the vegans will probably move communities, and it’s probably the best option at this point.

He’s in there, fifty comments deep, defending having pictures of his daughter in the nude. Weird dude.

Their reply prior to the borgeoise rant was downright odd, you’re right about that.
