It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to [email protected]

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

They did more than lock it, they deleted it for rule 7. (which, I'm fine with the rule 90% of the time, but mods clearly understood this was a special case. Deleting the thread after 200 comments is such a weird thing)

Eh, the original mod got banned, two separate admins showed up to humiliate themselves for absolutely no reason and one caught a temp ban lmao. Mission accomplished

Did the dunk tank comm get refederated?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 months ago

I don't believe so.

I see your point, fair enough.

And you can't view deleted posts from lemmy.ml by clicking on them in their modlog the way you can with hexbear. This is just the standard there.

In other words, people logged in to an account on lemmy.ml who see in the modlog that a post was deleted will only see "error_couldnt_find_post" if they click on it hoping to see what it was. For a lemmy.ml account, none of that post content or the comment thread it generated is visible, just gone. purge-2

To see what used to be there, you have to get to it from a hexbear account. purge-1

Can confirm, when I was on my .ml account the thread suddenly disappeared on me.
