If the head mod would like to respond I would really enjoy and explanation. I saved up a month of questions and just did it. I didn;t break the rules. If it had said no spamming or whatever and got an answer from a mod then I never would have done it. I just googled: is it spam to asks a bunch of questions at once? and it says usually it's not spam. Then I googled. Is it spam to ask a bunch of different questions at once? And it said No. On a side note kind of funny no mod has responded yet after 7 hours. Why do people sign up to be mods if they won't diligently take care of their community? I think mods sign up to be mods and have several communites they mod and pick and choose. To me it's respect to even be offered a mod job. But people have like 18 to 20 communities they mod. Why be a mod for that many if you are not willing to take care of the community that you signed up to be a mod? I only got !askhistorians@lemmy.world from prolific post so much and plus the site was run by something named a karmabot. If your going to let a bot or automod or whatever do stuff so you don't have to, then why be a mod if you aren't going to pay attention everyday?

Spam is a cross instance rule. A particular community doesn’t need to specify it as a rule.

That might be part of your client, though. When I report a post there is only a single text field for "reason". But I agree that it's a basic unwritten rule or just etiquette.

I tried to find the report button in the web interface to see if it was the same, but failed.

It is a part of the instance Lemmy.world Terms of Service though:

5.1 Community Manipulation
Do not engage in content manipulation such as posting spam content, vote manipulation through using several user accounts or consistently down-voting a user. Vote for the content, not for the person.
You must also not vote on content posted by other accounts under your control, with the exception of bot accounts, which may receive at most one vote per submission from non-bot accounts under your control.

I followed that to a Tee. Did I manipulate content or post the same thing over and over? No. Did I try to vote manipulate? No. Am I a bot or at the very least know how to program one? no.

Well I didn’t see what you did so all I have to go on is the one comment on your post that said you posted spam. And I don’t think “spam” is limited “the same thing over and over”.

[-] Patnou@lemmy.world -1 points 2 days ago

I posted the same amount of stuff on Video's, TIL, Tech, Askscience, and not banned. But the one I frequent kicks up a fuss. And on etiquette on the community or whatever, isn't that left open to the user reading it at some precodition point of view? I abided by all rules.
