The last time I checked, mods weren't supposed to be able to ban people from communities that those people never interacted in before. Did something change or is this a form of abuse/glitch/oversight? (lemmy.wtf)

I’ve been noticing this more and more in the modlogs, with it proven via the “creator” option in some instances’ modlogs that the people doing the bans were mods and not admins, and when I first joined Lemmy, one of the things that were held as a universal truth was that this absolutely could not happen.

And how would you know what the OP is talking about? Especially considering you are wrong about the supposed alts (with one exception) and the viewpoints and intents of the people you claim to speak for.

I wasn't baiting anyone. It was an honest inquiry and could've at least been answered from afar if anyone was afraid of stepping up to do so. And I have a seven-day-old name, so what? Whatever number of days old it was, the complaint would just adapt to that number to fit the needs of the complainer.
