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.

    I’m out here posting commie shit every day and getting into fights about it. But occasionally I take a peek at MoG and I’ve never seen my name there, it’s always just Cowbee this and Cowbee that. Now I don’t even make the blocklist.

    What am I, chopped liver?

        They loathe you because they can’t dismiss you without doing a bunch of reading they otherwise wouldnt do

          I tend to agree. If I were more aggressive, then it’s easy to dismiss me as a troll, but I deliberately choose not to do that.

        I’m pretty sure any interaction you and I have had was about as luke warm as yesterday’s tea, and I think even that would be more heated than any interaction ive had with rimu. I think I once commented about someones preferred pronouns not being used? Eh, whatever.

        Apparently I’m wayyyy more ban worthy than you.

        Edit: I want a sticker to commemorate this event.

        Edit 2: Oh, and for the record I think it was something like “they prefer x”, and you replied with “whoops, let me correct”. I don’t want to imply it was some sort of negative interaction and give folks the wrong impression.

        I honestly wonder if they ignore me because I’m meaner. But who knows what goes on in their heads.

          I suspect it too, I frequently have to revise my comments to tone them down before posting (and even after) because I know confrontation just turns people off of productive discussion, but I think this causes cognitive dissonance in some rather extreme reactionaries. Few people mildly dislike me, it seems either varying degrees of neutrality or positive views, or otherwise extreme hatred. Just what I’ve noticed.

          Honestly it’s probably the amount of text. A few of the people who got banned are dyed in the wool multi-paragraph to full book of text posters. Cowbee and Staments being the absolute gods of this.

          I bet that list is just a stack ranked list of numbers of words in threads they didn’t like, and Rimu just banned line the top 50.

            No one has ever accused me of not posting walls of texts before 🤣

            I think you’re right about it being about a specific thread though.
