I am filing a class action suit on behalf of over 206 individuals against the moderator of /c/modabuse @notwesker@lemmy.sdf.org for inconsistently enforcing rule 1 (no victim blaming).

EXHIBIT A: Moderator log showing instances where people received punishment for violating rule 1.

EXHIBIT B: In which @pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org quite explicitly violates rule 1 the first time.

EXHIBIT C: In which @notwesker@lemmy.sdf.org merely warns @pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org instead of applying a ban as done previously for far less explicit cases of a rule 1 violation.

EXHIBIT D: In which @pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org threatens to repeat the act of violating rule 1.

EXHIBIT E: In which @pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org explicitly violates rule 1 a SECOND time.

EXHIBIT F: In which @pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org explicitly violates rule 1 a THIRD time.

As restitution for the damages we are seeking:

That @pieguy@lemmy.sdf.org receive the appropriate punishment for 3 counts of violating rule 1.
That @notwesker@lemmy.sdf.org issue a formal written apology to the community for inconsistently enforcing the rules.
That all acts of restitution requested by class action claimants be satisfied to the best of @notwesker@lemmy.sdf.org's ability.

If you would like to register as a claimant on this class action suit, please leave a subcomment here indicating such and what you request as your restitution.

I'm so sorry that happened to you.

I don't know who that pieguy is, but I'm signing up in the off chance I can get either a hand job, or a slice of lemon meringue out of this. Not too concerned with who gives the hand job, though I do request it be given with lemon meringue pie.

I'm not here to sign up for the class action suit, but I would like to sign up for the lemon party.

You are supposed to eat the pie, not have someone rub it all over your bits, but you do you, friend. Far be it from me to kink-shame.

I just want you to know that you can't just say the word "bankruptcy" and expect anything to happen.

[–] pieguy 2 points 2 days ago

I expected that you would tell me that I shouldn't expect anything to happen.

hello i would also like to claim restution on the grounds that my report was not taken seriously which i can only assume means that dr wesker doesnt respect me which is blatant mod abuse and the retution i would like to seek is to be made moderator of this community so i can ban the budguys myself

As restitution for the damages, I would like that a freshly-prepared full-english breakfast be served to me in bed.

[–] Trying2KnowMyself@hexbear.net 2 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As someone who has previously considered blaming the victim, but has held back under threat of banning, I demand restitution in the following form: ban @wesker@lemmy.sdf.org for being the victim I intended to blame.

[–] notwesker 4 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Dr. Wesker was previously removed as moderator, as well as banned for a period of time, for gatekeeping. But I haven't recently seen them break any rules.

[–] Trying2KnowMyself@hexbear.net 3 points 2 days ago

Duh. I don’t want them banned for breaking the rules, I want them banned because I wanted to break the rules.
