Guess I said some shit that wasn’t liked many months ago. Just wondering if there is a place to have my acct reviewed for reinstatement or those communities? Not a bad person, just have some issues in speaking/getting my point across and it can easily be construed as aggressive/harsh when they isn’t my intent.

    Did you know that the ban reason is written by the moderator and they could write whatever they want - Including subjective views on the situation or even lies?

    I don’t think the modlog is supposed to protect the moderators from the bad users but rather users from bad moderators.

      No way! People can type whatever they want?

      I love the modlog because it frequently shows both users and mods can be lying. A user who claims they were banned for something other than racism who has three racist comments that the mods deleted or admins of a certain instance who claim any criticism of China is bigotry.

      In this case I was entertained by the modlog entry. ‘Spreading lies in other communities’ is pretty funny.

        I think because I warned some users a couple of times over a year ago, that he thinks I’m a sock puppet of the person/people he has banned. When he got angry about my warning the user, I didn’t engage at all. But a year later in that thread about Discovery, I wasn’t paying attention and didn’t notice that I replied to him.

        He seems to have a lot of drama around him.

        Is there a Lemmy equivalent to karma court?

      Yeah, my favorite bans are the ones from the News communities, with notes like “bad punctuation” or “spreading misinformation” because they posted an MSNBC article.
