Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
@rimu@piefed.social
What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
Mass instance bans
Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
Done
Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/comment that was removed, or got you banned).
Explain why you think its unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
He has abused the modlog to claim 'harassment', which I have never engaged in. I have not even interacted with Rimu in any way for days prior to getting kicked from the PieFed developer Matrix channels.
He has decided to mass ban 20 users because they have spoken out against his erratic and hostile behaviour as of late.
In his own words.
"Waah waaaah, the modlogs are unfair becuase they can be used to libel innocent people, I'll even patch my software so my server hides nasty things people say about me"
A few moments later...
"Harasser, Harasser, all of you are harassers! None of you is free of sin!"
Offering to talk to resolve his grievances and apologising for any unintended offence is now harassment? :bc_rollingeyes:
Welcome to the club
Hopefully when @manuallybreathing@lemmy.ml runs the poll in ~5 months db0 and quokk have better showings than previously.
Apparently me thinking its a simple thing with no real downside to just be fine with the change, and not seeing the problem - also harassment.
“Orchestrated a coordinated harassment campaign.” That’s quite a claim; where’s the evidence?
Their response would probably involve a combination of deflecting, discrediting you, attacking you, and doubling down on their warped perceived reality.
The only thing I ever did was post screenshots of his own statements and evidence that he was either actively lying or being a confused old man.
It's difficult enough to get 20+ people to agree on anything. Like what toppings on a pizza order. Much less a targeted smear campaign.
and lemmy.ml people and dbzer0 people getting together? for a harassment campaign? I challenge you to make them agree.
To be fair, dbzer0 and Lemmy.ml are not entirely at odds. Many users are on good terms.
orchestrated just means lots of people were doing it apparently lol
The evidence is that whenever news about Rimu being terrible comes out or Piefed's terrible decisions as a platform come to light, I sometimes criticize Rimu and/or Piefed.
Probably hasn't pulled it out of his ass yet.
See the
harassment-compose.yamlfile.Damn, once again I'm left out 😔
You're not making enough waves, friendo
Cowbee is a saint. How dare
That's sweet, thanks!
Hahahaha, oh wait you’re serious.
Why do people do the "fake laugh then act surprised" bit? I don't think it's a secret that for as many people that hate me, quite a few like me too, and that's part of why some people hate me very much like Rimu here.
While I do think you have sealiony behaviour sometimes (which is why some people dislike you, not everyone is like rimu), "harassing" is just not something you do.
I disagree about the sealioning bit, but I can agree to disagree there. When I mean some people like PJ and Rimu, I mean people that specifically hate me, which is usually just frustration from being unable to get a rhetorical win over me or provoke me into crashing out (like PJ did).
Hahahaha, oh wait you’re serious.
Of course. Go.
Already there chud.
Gotcha, seems this method of Rimu telling other admins to ban people he doesn't like is why Blahaj.Zone and feddit.org banned me around the same time as Piefed.social. Very fun to see where both of those instances stand.
Blahaj was literally the first instance that mass blocked people for wrongthink (newly appointed instant PTB mod banning everyone left of him) after reddit exodus.
Makes sense. With Hexbear.net as an explicitly queer leftist instance, and the leftist instances in general being very LGBTQIA+ friendly, blahaj tends to attract those to the right of leftist instances, ie liberals.
ah yes people would only do this if it was coordinated. Couldn't possibly be any of my actions
