I waited so long to come forward and tell my story because I didn’t think anyone would believe me. But now I want people to know what happened to me, because if knowing what happened to me could prevent it happening to them, then I want them to know.

      If your culture is to ban users for non-existing rules to troll them, you can stick it somewhere

        Sigh, yeah. This is a precise example of not getting what’s going on.

        I am editing to clarify things, since I am likely to be the only one who will. This post is in no means serious. If it was, why would the OP scribble timestamps crudely? This instance, SDF, is more of an avant garde artist collective kind of thing (outside of the communities here that are doing some seriously amazing dedicated work like !amputee@lemmy.sdf.org etc). I have no idea why @qrstuv@lemmy.sdf.org decided to make a news community - that one is unironically odd, and I offered to help moderate in a serious manner. The community you are viewing this in exists because @wesker@lemmy.sdf.org was legitimately being harassed and made some comedy out of it. I really mean it when people randomly commenting here don’t get it. You need a lot of context.

                It doesn’t. I never said that it did. You’re going to have to ask the mod that. What I am trying to imply here is that none of this arguing etc. is actually relevant in this community. This is something that should have never federated, to be honest. The person banned should take it up with the moderator. Or !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com which is the actually appropriate place to post something serious. This post is not serious. At all. For all I know, this is an admission of guilt.

                  The banned user has posted to that community already.

                  This is something that should have never federated, to be honest

                  I’m not sure if you mean this post or sdf as a whole, but there’s already people talking about defederating from sdf because of bad actors

                  For all I know, this is an admission of guilt.

                  The moderator that banned them hasn’t replied to anything, anywhere, except make this facetious post.

                    Once again. This community under which you are replying is fucking satire most of the time, unless @wesker@lemmy.sdf.org is feeling frisky. Are you deliberately being obtuse here? I beyond guarantee that any kind of attention outside of SDF was never wanted or warranted - it was accidental. Please take it to that thread on db0.

          Why are you the only person that’s claiming the entire instance is satire though? No one else has said anything like that, especially in the power tripping post.

              this is not true jawa and i met over a skype call to discuss this dishonesty and jawa assured me that it was not a lie but rather an active effort to spread disinformation to sow discord and encourage the broader lemmy community to defederate from sdf

                No, it isn’t a joke. It is a performance, and there is a large difference there. I am in no way trying to excuse the modding behavior. I’ve already stated that it is YTB.

                Edit: juggling too much

                  You’re in almost every comment here defending the mod for being a shitty mod. “its satire! It’s a joke! It’s not a joke, its a performance!”

                  Ok

                  If this is really how this instance is run I think I was initially correct in blocking it.

                    Look. It sucks. The community itself is satire. They made a shitty choice on a community that doesn’t even really fit on the instance. I’ve probably been over defensive since we just recently had to collectively summon the admin to ban a literal Nazi troll. I am not defending the moderation actions taken, because they were bad. I am defending this post in this community as it is.
