Yesterday I was reading the post about the FUTO keyboard where there were a lot of messages deleted by moderators.
I’ve commented there
What the heck happened with all the messages deleted by moderator?
And it got deleted. Right now you can only see 4, but I’ve counted 19 messages moderated and the post has been locked. Why?
I’ve had a look ad the modlog and the messages don’t seems to violate any policy (now they’ve removed them in the modlog too).
I’m pinging here lemmy.ml admin and the mods of the open source community where the post was posted so they can have their say about it and clarify the situation to me.
@kevincox@lemmy.ml @CrypticCoffee@lemmy.ml @Lettuceeatlettuce@lemmy.ml
@Cloak@lemmy.ml @davel@lemmy.ml @dessalines@lemmy.ml @nutomic@lemmy.ml @JoeBidet@lemmy.ml @cypherpunks@lemmy.ml
If I’m getting something wrong, please let me know, I’m here to discus and understand if I’m getting something wrong or if something went wrong in the moderation. Thanks!
Down here you can see the deleted comments.
P.s. I’m writing here because I think that this post on lemmy.ml wouldn’t last long.
Holy shit don’t you have anything better to post about? You people are like broken records.
Sure would be nice if you could just delete my comment, wouldn’t it? Alas.
It’s about one-third just my own sour grapes, and about two-thirds that I for real want to warn people who are not aware that lemmy.ml operates this way. I definitely remember being shocked and surprised myself that it worked that way, when I first encountered it and my stuff got deleted, and I would have appreciated someone coming in and saying “No, you’re not crazy, that’s just how their moderation operates there, but yes it is weird.” So I try to turn around and do that for others. But I won’t deny that the first one-third of it is there, also. Hope that’s okay with you.
You mean you want people to know the moderators are active and have a very firm stance on what is acceptable in their comms?
Thanks!
What a strange comment.
