- Which mods/admins were being Power Tripping Bastards?
Snoopy
- What sanction did they impose (e.g. community ban, instance ban, removed comment)?
Community ban
- Provide a screenshot of the relevant modlog entry (don’t de-obfuscate mod names).
- Provide a screenshot and explanation of the cause of the sanction (e.g. the post/ comment that was removed, or got you banned).
I woke up to suddenly being banned with a dm that was misgendering me. It appears the real reason I was banned was due to fact I was critical of Piefed’s recent actions.
Snoopy has no evidence that “I personally released the exploits into the wild" It was actually @yogthos@lemmy.ml who did the deed. I’m not technically enough to be pull it off, nor do I want to.
- Explain why you think it’s unfair and how you would like the situation to be remedied.
Hopefully unbanned and unblocked.
I don’t understand the piefed.Social people at all. Are they just making up reality as they go along?
Rimu is, and I assume a lot of other people on piefed who agree with him are as well. It’s the only way anyone could be okay with what he’s doing or think he’s at all the good guy in this situation.
Yes
Rimu is. The rest of them are either tacking onto his coattails because they believe they’ll also gain some amount of control, believe (naively) that they can control him or are buying into his bullshit as the single irrefutable source.
I think they really believe the “orchestrated harrassment” bit and everything bad against them is done as part of a conspiracy to kill piefed because… tankies hate us for our freedoms or something
While also being the biggest harrasing users.
RIP Ogre.
WTF?!
He died 5 days ago.
Yeah I looked it up I was just shocked that a random comment to A completely unrelated community is how I found out.
Honestly, I’m shocked they haven’t just jumped to defederation already, considering they’re okay with just nonstop lying and mass bans from personal hit lists. May as well just bite this weird bullet.
I wonder if they know it’d trigger a mass exodus from piefed. While they have many solid communities, the vast majority of their users are there also for federation with communities on world and db0. Defederating them would probably cause uproar when even there I’m sure most of their users see it as a personal spat.
Its why rimu only blocked db0 instead of full on defederating, which even I told rimu directly defederate if he disliked db0s admin policies so much. The fact that he hasn’t I think shows that they know it’s not as bad as they keep trying to claim.
There are actual hate and horrifying instances that us admins insta-defederated from. They’re trying to put regular admins on the same level, but not defederating proves that it’s all in their heads.
Honestly, instances should just start defederating them at this point. There’s a ton of harassment from them and they clearly don’t act in good faith.
I honestly didn’t think there would be worse mods than those on world but these last few weeks have certainly proven me wrong
Indeed, the whole project, and everyone associated with it, feels deeply malicious.
That’s rich coming from the person who publicly posted potential exploits and put thousands of users at risk.
Given that it took all of five minutes to find those exploits, those users were already at risk. I didn’t reveal any information that anyone couldn’t get by cloning the repo and throwing an LLM at it.
