MODERATORS
The creator of Pleasant Politics made an automod bot that will preemptively ban someone if they receive a high ratio of downvotes anywhere on lemmy, not just in its own community. It's to prevent bad actors and trolls from being able to post in there at all.
Notice the link in the ban reason of your screenshot, which explains what it is and how it works.
Based on the user's very-limited post and comment history, the bot is severely malfunctioning. I could only find one single item (a comment) where the downvotes outweighed the upvotes.
Hm, that is odd. Unless OP deleted their more controversial posts/comments, they really ought not've been banned. Though perhaps their sparse activity is working against them in the bot's eyes?
@[email protected], did Santabot glitch out in this case?
No, I didnt delete anything.
