This is a community in the spirit of "Am I The Asshole" where people can post their own bans from lemmy or reddit or whatever and get some feedback from others whether the ban was justified or not.

Sometimes one just wants to be able to challenge the arguments some mod made and this could be the place for that.

Rules

Expect to receive feedback about your posts, they might even be negative.

Make sure you follow this instance's code of conduct. In other words we won't allow bellyaching about being sanctioned for hate speech or bigotry.


Some acronyms you might see.

Yesterday, I created my account on Lemmy.ml because I want to become mod on !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml. And I posted this comic on !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml It's SDV game cutscene where Shane a NPC go watch Sports game with you kiss you accidentily but It was part of that event also player kiss Shane(NPC) back. Here's video for more context. And someone claimed it have SA(Sexual Assualt) From Hexbear Ofcourse. So, I should delete it. I said it was a part of game cutscene. And If main player doesn't love the Shane(NPC) then they don't need to complete this event. And Just as a sarcasm I added Yeah we shoule delete this entire community because this game is Woke like Woke Detector Steam Group said. That user think I am some anti-woke dickhead something like that IDK. And tell me to Kill My Self. What I do now? I wanted on become mod on .ml because community was already well established. I message dessaline but I am sure he will not unbanned me. :(

Did I really did something wrong? I don't know If I really did something wrong.

Link for that comic if embed doesn't work.

Here's some context, in defence of the OP:

The game in question allows you to date and marry different characters, among them Shane (represented in the comic with the purple hair). In order to do so, once the character reaches an affection level of eight hearts towards you, you need to give them a bouquet, that clearly signals that the player's avatar has romantic interest towards that person.

The comic represents Shane's ten hearts event. As in: you can only reach that point if you already showed romantic interest towards Shane. And in the context, the kiss is not even sexual in nature, it's just Shane excited with the game.

As in, there's no fucking way to interpret this as sexual assault.

But of course. Slacktivists gonna witch hunt, right? They're unable to understand context, but they're still really eager to screech at you. And .ml moderation in special has a nasty tendency towards both slacktivism and witch hunting.

They also don't seem to get sarcasm well.

They also don't seem to get sarcasm well.

That's Lemmy as a whole, not just them.

[–] SatyrSack 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

No, Lemmy is actually the best at picking up on sarcasm

Celebrate. Move to another instance. Dbzer0, Solarpunk, Lemm.ee, .world, there are a bunch of choices. Takes some work to revive a community, but it's very doable. .ml has trash admins and mods, and that's unlikely to change.

[–] sag@lemm.ee 11 points 1 month ago (9 children)

I am on lemm.ee for a year now I just created account .ml to become mod dying !stardewvalley@lemmy.ml community.

[–] PugJesus@lemmy.world 30 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Well, might try creating the Stardew Valley community on Lemm.ee then? You could do some reposting if you wanted a bit of easy activity while things wind up.

Ah. Well, you learned your lesson about interacting with Lemmy.ml, it sounds like. :-/

[–] sag@lemm.ee 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)
[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 13 points 1 month ago

Yup, really. Things like this are a dime a dozen in .ml; not just from the mods, but also the admins.

[–] GBU_28@lemm.ee 19 points 1 month ago

Just turn back. ML is a waste

[–] Lost_My_Mind@lemmy.world 15 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I have a rule. I will not join ANY community on .ml

Even if I would otherwise enjoy the content.

I'm even a fan of Stardew Valley, and I would like to subscribe to your.....oh. It's on .ml?

Hey, quick question. Does anyone know any decent Stardew Valley communities on Lemmy? I'd love to know if we have any Stardew Valley communities!

Why someone could even make a brand new community, and I would join! Any Stardew Valley on any instance besides .ml and besides any that defederated from .world.

[–] SorteKanin@feddit.dk 10 points 1 month ago (5 children)

Sounds like you should join an instance that defederates .ml

[–] Blaze 11 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Is there any? I've always seen hexbear and grad defederated, but not ml

Report to the local gulag for ideological reeducation. Or go to another instance.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

After only three generations you will be considered for early release. But seriously, that instance is an irredeemable cesspool.

[–] thann@lemmy.dbzer0.com 30 points 1 month ago

Ml has become a sespool of bigots and propagandists like hexbear so you're better off just leaving.

I was recently banned for calling someone who was calling for the death of all Americans an idiot.

[–] mp3@lemmy.ca 28 points 1 month ago (1 children)

One of the reason why our instance defederated from Hexbear. They're not there to discuss in good faith, they're there to incite and provoke, then they start crying if you reply back to their nonsense.

They're not worth interacting with.

[–] lvxferre@mander.xyz 17 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (49 children)

To be fair I've had good discussions with a few of them, so I can't generalise.

But... yeah, some of them don't quite realise that the childish behaviour that would be OK in HB is despised elsewhere, and that it's the the major reason why their instance gets defederated so bloody often - it is not red scare, it's "get the children back to the kindergarten so the adults can talk".

.ml is bullshit, one mod owns most of it with alts, and if you aren't a bigot or fascist you get banned.

leave that toilet behind.

[–] lohky@lemmy.world 22 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

I don't usually block people because I genuinely like hearing any good faith opinions.

That being said, I've blocked the entire .ml instance.

Ye they just got upset over nothing and went straight to the ban hammer for no reason. Just stick with lemm.ee and let that community grow.

[–] JeeBaiChow@lemmy.world 17 points 1 month ago

Blocked the instance. Havent looked back.

[–] db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Looks like a CLM situation here, but approaching PTB for how fast they ignored all context to wield the banhammer.

OP you did nothing wrong, and this comic is cute. Keep up the good work!
