how to get unbanned from communities?

  As others said, you would have to message the mods of the community or admins of the instance that banned you. Looking at your modlog, I don’t think these can all be overturned since some are too blatant. But I guess you won’t know until you try. In the future, only participate in communities you are interested in after having read the rules, otherwise it just seems like your intentions were to troll.

  You can view your modlog here:

  The one for bad punctuation from the troll community you can probably get overturned…

  All the ones for racism and explicit advocation for vionce though, you probably won’t be able to get changed

    Ouch. Yeah, it’s always the worst users that complain the loudest about moderation

  You can message the mods if you want, see if they’ll reinstate you.

    I am a mod, recieved such messages, and have reverted decisions. Often jsut knowing the person on other side is a human person, with some senses, gives you enough confidence to unban

  I mean, most of the communities that are heavy handed in their moderation like this, are building themselves to becomes extreme echo chambers. Examples include c/world, c/politicalmemes. One of the worst betrayers of this was @flyingsquid who would regularly get into flame wars with people, then proceed to use their mod authority to ban them. And as much as people complain about people like @jordunlund, they are far, far better as a mod in not abusing their mod authority in this manner (although they have, and its been documented).

  However, lemmy is small. And the reality is that the “kinds” of conversations that might happen only in one community are actually happening all over the place. The “conversation” happens wherever the conversation might be.

  So instead of worrying to much about it getting unbanned from fiefdoms, you might consider starting your own communities, or taking the conversations you would imagine happening in banned communities elsewhere. The fact is, that the attention and people will follow you if you have good things to say.

    It’s just annoying when I go to post in eg: world of Warcraft. And find myself banned when I’m pretty darn sure I never posted there before. Like, I’m not a bad person, I want everyone to enjoy their life and not be bothered by others for who they are. Literally my view on the world but comments get misconstrued in totally unrelated communities and well…here we are.

    Guess I’ll just do nothing, or look into ban evading which seems like it makes the entire thing of bans pointless.

      Yeah. The draconian/ editorial banning selects for bad actions on the part of users.

  Just throwing this out there…you can just hop over to another instance and viola! No bans.

  (This seems like a flaw in the fediverse model, given how easy it is to instance hop.)

  • Fiivemacs@lemmy.ca ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Yeah I don’t really wanna ban evade.

  You can look yourself up on the modlog to see why you were banned, except in rare cases where they didn’t federate the ban.

  I pointed out that constantly posting about ‘trans rights’ was just a way sow division with a topic that directly impacts a very small portion of the population, but gaslights a large portion of the remainder. Got banned.

  • my_hat_stinks@programming.dev ⁨21⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Supporting human rights isn’t in any way “gaslighting”. It’s very reasonable to ban someone for being a piece of shit.

  • Solumbran@lemmy.world ⁨19⁩ ⁨hours⁩ ago

    Wanting rights for a minority is gaslighting and sowing division?

    Please, I’m very excited to hear your explanation of how, without being a transphobic piece of shit. Please, go on.

    I mean if you don’t mean anything bad you won’t get banned, right? ;)

  I got banned from tenforward for saying the ending of Star Trek Discovery didn’t make sense. No name calling, no back and forth arguing, just my statement and a reply explaining one point of my previous post. But that reply was to a mod who didn’t like my explanation.

  I messaged mods and nothing.

    I love the public facing modlog.

      Did you know that the ban reason is written by the moderator and they could write whatever they want - Including subjective views on the situation or even lies?

      I don’t think the modlog is supposed to protect the moderators from the bad users but rather users from bad moderators.

      Your source for that claim is the Ten Forward mods said so? Those guys lie constantly.

      Look at my history. That wasn’t the reason I was banned. Over a year ago years ago I warned another user that I saw that mod ban an account for arguing. That post history was there and flying squid warned him to not do that sort of thing in Ten Forward. A year later I made the mistake of replying to a post that he posted to me. The post was about the writing in Discovery.

      You can see my last post on tenforward that got banned. He deleted it but of course in Lemmy it’s only hidden so you can still view it.

      So yeah, not only did he ban me but he lied about the reason.
