This mod stated that they were the one behind the bans (https://feddit.org/comment/8930413)
So, a mod banning downvotes while using several sockpuppet accounts to vote multiple times.
Even on niche corners of the internet, the right can't avoid lying and vote manipulation.
This just keeps getting more absurd.
Yo 've gott em so werked up tehy ca'nt type ar spel
I loved how much their spelling kept devolving during that argument. It's hard to take someone seriously (especially an internet moderator) when they type like an 8 year old or someone who still types on a mid 2000s phone with a physical keypad.
I have a feeling like your picture of this person getting all worked up and typing increasingly unhinged is probably pretty much accurate to how that person appears.

"Politics without trolls"
Fucking lol
It was a specific politics community that was just made to talk about politics without UniversalMonk. This was back in the days when the !politics@lemmy.world moderators, with their unerring instinct for making the worst decision possible on any given issue, were insisting that UniversalMonk hadn't done anything wrong and his honored place in the community needed to be preserved and the whole community who held a different opinion about him just didn't understand the bigger picture like they did.
- It was a specific politics community that was just made to talk about politics without UniversalMonk.
Glad that people made an entire community about being afraid of me though. Flattering! I. Am. Awesome.
- were insisting that UniversalMonk hadn't done anything wrong
Because I didn't do anything wrong.
Another day, another mention of me by you. Friend, you're obsessed. You need to let it go.
We can be brothers, but you don't have to mention me every single day. That's clingy! lol
You're rent free in Phillip's head every day.
Every. Single. Day.
lol
You're fucking kidding me lmao.
I experienced the exact same thing (on a very small scale) from that dbzer0 community that was going apeshit banning anyone who gave them downvotes and talking about "anti AI trolls." It sure looked like they were batch-voting certain content, right away after it was posted from some handful of different accounts.
I never said anything about it at the time, just moved on with life, because it (a) sounds like I'm just whining about getting downvotes for my own stuff which was when I noticed it (b) would create accusations that I'm making it up (c) would create inter-instance drama (d) didn't even really continue within my awareness for any length of time I was aware of. But they definitely seemed like they were, at the very least, coordinating between a bunch of people to give out batches of votes to some content they wanted to manipulate in some way, and at worst, doing that but with sockpuppets.
It kind of makes sense. The same kind of mentality that even cares enough about this in the first place and feels entitled to cheat the system a little bit to make it kind-of-impossible to give their own content "incorrect" downvotes, would probably also feel entitled to cheat the system a little more to issue "correct" votes in sufficient numbers to make sure the voting totals for content they cared about were "correct" according to what they wanted.
"Try not to use any sockpuppet accounts on your way out" fuckin gold lmao
Hilarious man.
But they definitely seemed like they were, at the very least, coordinating between a bunch of people to give out batches of votes to some content they wanted to manipulate in some way, and at worst, doing that but with sockpuppets.
Feel free to bring receipts
Willing to bet we don't get any, as Phillip has lied about db0 before, and will again.
It's a 100% fair question, I looked back for a while and couldn't even find the posts where this happened. Let me look more a little later and get back to you.
Uhh, can I get some context?
Edit: nvm, it was the previous post. Dunno if federated links have arrived yet, but here’s the post for posterity
yes, which means that op's post here isn't really appropriate. Also, TheSilentNickel@lemmy.zip that is in his graphic isn't me, it's an imposter account created to get me banned and get revenge for being banned from my community.
~~How did OP make this account as revenge for his account being banned if the sockpuppet account is older than OPs account?~~
Edit: I misunderstood this comment. What I said was incorrect.
it's not older
the imposer silentnickel@lemmy.zip account was days 3 days old at time of this post. OP's account is 3 months old.
besides i didn't say OP made the account in that comment, i just said its an imposter account created just to get me banned and get revenge for being banned from one of my communities
i also had a conservative2 account on feddit.org where most of the banning happened before I closed it and switched it over to the new server at lemmyusa.
TL;DR: TheSilentNickel@lemmy.zip that's in OP's graphic isn't me. It's imposter account created to get me banned in revenge for being banned in my community. I've never had account on .zip and the imposter account has NEVER modded and NEVER posted to my community. Imposter account was created 3 days ago which is when my banning for serial downvoting really kicked in.
TL;DR for the TL;DR: Imposter set up account with my username on .zip was butthurt because they got banned from my community. Did sketchy stuff. Got me banned. OP (also banned from my community) thinks it's awesome, so posted graphic about it.
I'm not on lemmy.zip. "TheSilentNickel@lemmy.zip" that's in OP's graphic was never a mod of my community, and has never posted to my community.
I'm on feddit.org and lemmyusa.com.
The imposter account on .zip was created 3 days ago...after I started to seriously ban people for serial downvoting.
See the previous discussion about this. It was discussed to death earlier: https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/53271052
@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com this is just more of the same from the previous post in which i asked the person to disengage. OP's post seems to really be laughing at "getting me" (even tho my bans are result of an imposter account by disgruntled ban-ee). I don't feel this is a "power tripping mod" sort of post.
I'll wait for the audiobook
if you don't wanna read the facts, nothign i can do to make you. not really in the vibe of this community though.
Just really weird that you would carry on an issue from a previous post where everything was discussed and I asked you to disengage. And also, ur graphic is the result of, and has the names, of imposter account.
This seems more of personal revenge quest, rather than a power tripping mod post.
Yes, it's all a conspiracy.
I also have a time machine.
I didn't say you were the one who created the imposter account. I said it was created by someone who was mad about being banned. It's not a conspiracy, it's a Lemmy user that is mad cuz he or she got banned from my community.
alls fair in Lemmy-dom, but i'm pointing out that ur bragging and laughing about the wrong thing. I got banned becuase of an imposter account wanting revenge. You got banned becuase you serial downvoted in my community and then you asked that your instance defederate from my instance becuase you were mad about it.
That's what started this whole thing lol ur concerns were already brought up in the previous post that discussed these issues.
This is a meltdown. I'm not interested in taking further part in it.
i'm fine w moving on too. as I told you previously when I asked you to disengage. thanks for pointing out the imposter account tho ive sent message to admin to let them know
Uhhhmmmm...
Ok so.... literally all that I understand about anything related to this is ... in the thread I made.
I don't know why .zip has banned you from their instance / comms... beyond the stated reason in the OP image.
Perhaps one of their mods or admins has decided that your actions do, in their view, constitute vote manipulation.
Maybe, they have some kind of ip based, or other identifying evidence that you and SilentNickel are the same person.
I don't know, I am not them, I am again, not a mod or admin of anything...
Maybe a .zip admin or mod will appear here!
And this will all get more ... fun...
As a final note:
Women Farting on Cakes is apparently a community.
I am displeased that I am now aware of this.
God damnit.
don’t know why .zip has banned you
No, that's not waht I am saying. I'm saing that TheSilentNickle@lemmy.zip is an imposter account started 3 days ago, from someone who was banned in my community, so they started doing some stuff to purpously get me banned. lol
TheSilentNickle@lemmy.zip was NEVER a mod of my community and has NEVER even posted to my community.
He's an imposter that was created 3 days ago. And me, the real me, has been banned becaues of him for vote manipulation. And this is OP's post laughing about it.
I've never been to .zip and I don't care that I was banned from a bunch of communites that I never visited. But you were talking about imposter accounts, and I was showing another one. Look at OP's graphic. TheSilentNickle@lemmy.zip is on there.
So to sum up: Someone was mad that I banned them for serial downvoting. So they created an imposter account, to do some shenanigans, and op posted a graphic that I've suddenly been banned (as a result of imposters shenanigans)
so i thought that was a fun follow up to ur whole thing about imposters and conspiracies and I told u that u were just being paranoid. Guess I was wrong! haha
I'm still gonna keep banning for serial downvoting tho so all of this many pages of drama hasn't changed anything lol
the imposter account in OP's graphic that goes by @thesilentnickle@lemmy.zip, was created to make OP's argument and get me banned. that imposter account was never a mod or poster or even voter (as far asi know) in my community.
i reached out to the admin of lemmy.zip, and now imposter account has been removed/banned. u canwrite that admin for proof.
OP started another thread two days ago bout people banning downvoters, "threelonmusketeers@sh.itjust.works is banning users for downvoting his posts." https://lemmy.world/post/35942590
OP feels strongly about downvotes. his account is 3 months old with 4 posts, and half of those posts are about being angry about bans for downvoting.
interesting. ill continue banning for serial downvoting as rules fo my community say.
Thats a lie, it was created a day prior to my involvement in any way.
Most likely you decided to manipulate votes via sock puppets an addition to abusing your mod powers.
Occams Razor points to you.
Stop trying to cover me in your shit, you are fooling nobody.
not a lie. it was created to do just what you posted. i banned u for serial downvoting and ur mad. and others are too. thats ok. laughing because some imposter account got me banned from places I don't even plan to visit, isnt the flex u think it is. u don't see me starting multiple threads trying to defederate them for it lol
u also started another post on another instance complaining about some other mod banning people for downvoting. we get it. you don't like the idea that serial downvoters can be banned. Some ban for it, some don't. that's Lemmy.
Stop trying to make up shit, you are fooling nobody.
I understand you are feeling cornered having been caught, but slandering others is not the adult response.
Please try to learn and grow from this humiliation, you might become a better person.
I understand you are feeling cornered because lemmy's attitude is starting to be against serial downvoting. i understand ur anger about getting banned for it. i hope you learn to follow community rules in the future.
Sure brother.
No one is buying it, and your constant clumsy attempts to divert the conversation are getting truly hard to watch.
Please go outside and leave your phone at home, for your sake and the sake of everyone around you.
Is this what you've been reduced to? repeating my own previous responses at me in a weak attempt at trolling?
Can you not find something better to do with your day?
disengage
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.
All posts should follow this basic structure:
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.
