I have nothing to do with that Lemmy instance, modding, admining, or anything, but you are what I would consider a prolific downvoter on Lemmy.

Here's some statistics for others to arrive at their own conclusion:

  • In about 1 minute you issued 4 downvotes on that Lemmy instance in the most recently recorded data.
  • Today you've already downvoted at least 17 comments
  • Just yesterday you've issued at least 127 downvotes
  • Since you joined in 2023 you issued 14282 downvotes on comments and 952 on posts
  • You have a 1:2.2 upvote to downvote ratio

Instance admins have programmatic access to this kind of data. They also have the power to shape the contributors to their instances to foster the community they want.

Thank you for your support. You're so right. I was absolutely going light on that guy. He could have had it so much worse.

Oh, don't mistake my post for support for your downvoting. Its not exactly criticism either. Your downvoting doesn't really affect my life. The stats I posted are just facts. My goal was to offer evidence that would possibly explain the ban because its likely far more than just the 2 downvotes you cited so that others could form their own opinions.

You obviously disagree with that mods "serial downvoter" title. What, in your opinion, would qualify someone for the title of "serial downvoter"?

24hr timeout for being helpful, but not supportive

You...banned me for 24 hours for...not being "supportive"? The irony is not lost on me that you mod a lemmy community for moderation abuse, while abusing your own moderation powers here.

Its your clubhouse. You can run it however you want. No need to ban me again for not being "supportive" again. I'll block this community from my side and leave you to your games. I wonder if you'll leave this post up so others can enjoy your joke too. I'll never know though. I'd say "see ya later!" but I guess I won't.

We don't remove comments or posts here, under rule 2: don't delete evidence

In all my time as one of the hardest working and most celebrated moderators on here, I've never once bestowed a title upon anyone. So I'm not really sure why you're asking me that about titles.

idk what you mean I don't think we've ever celebrated qrstuv day

Devastating numbers. I can finally see now I've never actually made a bad post. Rather, downvote gregor, who downvotes 14282 posts, is an outlier and should not be counted

[–] wesker 3 points 2 weeks ago

Why include downvote functionality at all? It's such a contentious feature.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 2 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

your my hero and @kolanaki@pawb.social you may want to see this as it may give you a new perspective on this one.

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 2 points 2 weeks ago

Nope. Still pathetic behavior. If it was a bot that 100% only downvotes, that'd be a different story.
