Thank you for wanting to help out!

I will contact the owner myself and will get back to you if he has not responded. Takes maximum of two days. :)

They are banned, was indeed a big wave of spammers…

Should be okay now, thanks for reporting.

He did update it yesterday. Maybe try a revisit?

He also asked for opinions about the colour scheme:

Why are you always so fast…

I transferred the community to you! If you need any more help, there are some people in the thread offering a helping hand!

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?

quinten, 8 months ago

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.

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.

quinten, 8 months ago

Please make a comment on the community and link it here. That way I can transfer the community. It’s a technical restriction.

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 info@lemmy.world 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.

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. :)

quinten, 8 months ago

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.

quinten, 8 months ago

As I said. Email us at info@lemmy.world.

Welcome to the club!

quinten, 8 months ago

I just transferred the community to you.

Many many thanks for your help!

quinten, 8 months ago

I see @antik already took care of it. :)

quinten, 8 months ago

No worries! We’re just glad that you’re here, also when you’re not moderating. :)

quinten, 8 months ago

We have added you to the moderators. :)
