I was banned without warning for posting ontopic content to c/Tenforward, the mod locked and removed my post without giving a reason, so I made a second post asking why and was banned for “drama”. There is nothing in the rules about drama nor my original post which was just a screenshot of Star Trek.
Tenforward was supposed to be created as a no rules meme page. Is there a frickin meme community out there without tyrannical mods?
What a coincidence I was banned too. No reason given as you might suspect. Stamets sent me a DM this morning threatening me for “posting too often” I was mad because there was no previous rule about it but agreed anyway. Then he added a rule to the sidebar after the aggressive DM. He asked me not to post more than 3-4 times an hour and I complied now I came back to post more and am banned.
He was upset because I posted a meme critical of Discovery and called him out when he gave a rude response to my meme.
Typical mod tantrum. I had hoped we escaped this on Lemmy…
I wouldn’t have said anything if there was a rule about it, there wasn’t. The tenforward community was formed because of this behavior in another mod. I was not given a chance to edit my post it was just quietly removed because Stamets didn’t like it.
You were given two warnings. When you first made a post questioning why it was removed, and on your second post questioning why it was removed. They were locked and you were given multiple reasons by myself and other mods.
You were banned for abusing the report function and using it as a super complaint button. This can be seen in the modlog where there is a screenshot of you doing exactly that.
Your original title was that of another users name on a different instance. You were actively causing drama. You have been told this now 4 times. This was directly proven with more screenshots in your second post.
You know, I think you’re just kind of a troll just trying to stir shit up for no reason.
First of all following me here to continue harassing me is not ok.
You were given two warnings.
I was given ZERO warnings, the post was quietly removed with no reason given. In my second post a mod only said “drama” which is not against the rules, and locked it before I could even ask for clarification/defend myself.
You were banned for abusing the report function
I reported three other posts that were more “drama” than mine including one from a mod. That’s hardly “abusing”.
Your original title was that of another users name on a different instance.
As I pointed out there was a post on the front page doing the exact same thing, and in a post sticked to the top of the instance. There was clearly nothing rule breaking about that. Also I changed the title.
You were actively causing drama.
Again, “drama” is not against the rules, you just personally didn’t like it.
