This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.
Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.
Rules
- Post only about bans or other sanctions from mod(s).
- Provide the cause of the sanction (e.g. the text of the comment).
- Provide the reason given by the mods for the sanction.
- Don't use private communications to prove your point. We can't verify them and they can be faked easily.
- Don't deobfuscate mod names from the modlog with admin powers.
- Don't harass mods or brigade comms. Don't word your posts in a way that would trigger such harassment and brigades.
- Do not downvote posts if you think they deserved it. Use the comment votes (see below) for that.
- You can post about power trippin' in any social media, not just lemmy. Feel free to post about reddit or a forum etc.
Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.
Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.
YTPB matrix channel: For real-time discussions about bastards or to appeal mod actions in YPTB itself.
Some acronyms you might see.
- PTB - Power-Tripping Bastard: The commenter agrees with you this was a PTB mod.
- YDI - You Deserved It: The commenter thinks you deserved that mod action.
- BPR - Bait-Provoked Reaction: That mod probably overreacted in charged situation, or due to being baited.
- CLM - Clueless mod: The mod probably just doesn't understand how their software works.

MODERATORS
I'm too new here to be making these kinds of assumptions but whenever I see someone complaining about Ada and team, I'm thinking these might be 'free speech' people that want the right to enter every club without paying the admission, adhering to the dress code and full reign to insult the regulars, staff and owner. Real life doesn't work that way so why should social media?
So far I'm more than happy and impressed with the Blåhaj instance. And even if I move to another instance or mbin or something, I'm still happy to respect the Blåhaj way when I'm in that house.
This federation thing gives me a different outlook on this kind of thing compared to Reddit. When you say "admin" here, you're not talking about some rich incel, you're talking about people putting their time and effort into providing spaces for people to gather and form communities. Probably for little reward.
Definitely. Special shout out to admins like @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip, @Shadow@lemmy.ca, @jgrim@discuss.online @milan@discuss.tchncs.de ,@Illecors@lemmy.cafe or @QuentinCallaghan@sopuli.xyz . Great people running great instances
