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.

      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.

      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?
