This feels like an overreach by the lemmy.world admin...
(lemmy.blahaj.zone)
I was banned from lemmy.world for “personal attacks” for 3 days because of calling someone a “piece of shit” after they called me a “cunt”. The comment calling me a cunt wasn’t removed and the user hasn’t been punished at all by the lemmy.world admins.
The comments in question:
Lemmy.world modlog:
In the interest of full disclosure, this is my other comment that was removed:
And here’s the comment of that user I was referencing, in the Blahaj modlog after it was removed:
This feels like an overreach, especially when the admin clearly didn’t feel it was important to punish their own user for “personal attacks” in the same thread.
Oh, I guess I forgot the context. This was a post on 196 here on blahaj. I think more than anything it’s a PSA that lemmy.world admins will ban you for minor infractions but let their users do the same thing in the same post. The post had been locked, and then a few hours later I got a couple of automoderator messages from lemmy.world about being banned. I’m a Blahaj user so, ya know, it felt relevant.
Edit: Also buried the lede on the post in question, it’s an anti-HP one, so it also makes the decision seem…well, political. I probably was being a cunt, but banning me and not the lemmy.world user sends a message. Here’s the post: https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/7445766
Thanks for the explanation.
That’s okay, thanks for listening.
