I use Summit, and I am fairly new to Lemmy.
I got banned from https://lemmy.world/c/dull_mens_club
I am quite shocked! I wanted to make a post about this fart which I produced that I believe my neighbors heard. After composing the post, I got a message that I am banned. ME!? Why!? And when I opened my profile I couldn’t see any of my posts at https://lemmy.world/c/dull_mens_club
Is it possible to see them so I can figure out the reason
Once again I open a thread about drama and I already have OP labeled as a troll.
What do you mean by drama?
I was not trolling, it was a misunderstanding, daddy chill . Don’t make me feel like I am on reddit again.
Don’t jump to conclusions, okay? I GOT UNBANNED, OHHHH YEAH, YOU HEARD IT RIGHT!
but one question remains, which mod should I message when I need to contact mods on lemmy.
On reddit you don’t pick, you just contact the modmail and there all mods can see your message.
Does lemmy have that?
Here’s the post title that I removed and banned you for. It’s not the first post of yours that I’ve had to remove.
Wow, good job missing the tone of that community by a mile, OP. Used to be we all knew to lurk for a week or two to understand the vibes of a place before posting anywhere (now get off my lawn).
One more thing, is the way I contacted you as a mod, the right way? That’s important to me, I want to follow rules, and if there is more than one mod, WHO SHOULD I contact!?
And am I unbanned?.
And, is it the peepeepoopoo part?
People find it dull, to elaborate: I go to peepee and both comes out so I call it peepeepoopoo which everyone I shared it to found it boring.
Or is it the cave man speech? I’d like to add a little humor in my post and comment to put a smile on people’s face so I won’t be too dull.
Peepeepoopoo
It’s fine to message the mods, just please follow the rules on the sidebar and as the other user stated please lurk more before posting. If I start getting more reports about you then I will permanently ban you.
I forgot to tell that user about how good that idea is, I didn’t check any post there, HOWEVER, I read the rules. Tried to follow.
So I am not banned?
Also, I am afraid to post there now, can I message you before I post? I will work hard and It will be the dullist! I swear on Allah!
I’ve gone ahead and unbanned you. You can run posts by me if you want to. Just know that it’s a slow community with only one or two posts a day.
Thank you, I don’t know why I like your community. The idea of dull posts is fascinating.
But that’s boring and dull, isn’t ?!
I’m not a mod there, but based on your description it sounds like that post would go against their rule 5:
- Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.
edit: You got banned for trolling: https://lemmy.ca/modlog?userId=31725706
Yeah, I saw that🤦♂️ the ptsd from reddit era got triggered, not gonna lie. I thought that was dull thing I did. And I was not trolling.
I should find a mildly dull community 😬
So how would I reach the mod, is it same as a normal user or is that not allowed because I already messaged them as a normal user.
Let me explain, on reddit you should not message the mod from their account and instead use what is called a modmail. Is it the same on lemmy?
Yes, for now you would reach out to individual mods over DMs.
I think the community you are looking for might be [email protected], or similar casual / silly communities. That community isn’t really for the kinds of posts you’ve made
I am a bit slow, I am sorry, I am not trolling.
Isn’t it about men posting dull stuff they did that day?
Edit: a community to just sharing boring stuff, or mildly boring would be fun.
I guess i was deemed a troll, this modlog feature is cool, open data!
Ps: I was able to see the modlog within Summit app.
What about reaching the mod, do you message them like normal users, or is there a modmail feature similar to reddit?
Also, do you think I was trolling?!
Honestly, I’d never really message a mod. I’ve got shit on my account and it doesn’t bother me. You just can’t interact with the affected community.
If you do want to get back in that particular community, I would read the rules and determine 1) if there’s anything forbidding you from contacting mods and 2) if your post broke any of the rules. If you did break a rule and a appeal is allowed you could message them, and note that you recognize the specific rule you broke, apologize, ask for forgiveness and assure them you’ll be diligent in following rules going forward. I wouldn’t hold your breath though, cause they’ve got lives of their own. I definitely would post to power tripping mods or whatever, besmirching them will get you nowhere.
I’m not gonna make an assessment on your actions.
Guess who got unbanned, baby. Oh yeah.
But I found this community and a rule/law of the land made me confused, but there are like 10 mods!
Which one should I message!? There should be a modmail thing like reddit but per my online searching and ai asking it seems like lemmy don’t have that feature… But then I am literally mentally retarded (no joke, like medically)
You get old and accept these kind of shit.
If you are curious it was the lemmh shit post community… I have to sea3ch that law I forgot.
So.the rule was… well, is be respectful.
What if my post disrespected me! I always do that.
Look in the community’s sidebar (where you find the description etc.) for the modlog and the accounts of mods. I don’t know how to do that in Summit, sry.
I found the mod name, and it opened a profile and I was able to message them, is that the appropriate way? Or is that the personal account or something.
Like on reddit you have the mod mail and you could message the mod as a reddit user.
Is it the same on lemmy
I have indeed never had to contact a mod but if they’re listing an account in the modlist, I would assume you’re meant to contact that account in its function as a mod account. Chill, being banned is not the end of the world.
I am always insert meme
