- Comment on Request to mod /c/nootropics 5 days ago:
You are now the community mod. Enjoy!
I created a report in the community so you will know what those look like in your preferred web UI or app.
- Comment on Request to mod c/residentevil 5 days ago:
It’s all yours!
- Comment on Request to moderate c/motorcycles 1 week ago:
Users from other instances can be mods, though it’s more difficult. Remote mods cannot see community reports due to a bug in Lemmy.
- Comment on Request to moderate c/motorcycles 1 week ago:
You are the new mod of !motorcycles@lemmy.world!
- Comment on Request to mod tankiejerk 2 weeks ago:
Sure thing. The prior mod appears to have been away for months. The community is now yours. I also added your .world alt as a mod.
I’ll ping the old mod @Zstom6IP@lemmy.world here so they will know what happened in case they come back to .world someday.
- Comment on Why can't I sort by name on the communities page? 4 weeks ago:
I suppose the Lemmy devs simply haven’t seen a need to implement that sort option. You could add an issue to the project GitHub to request that feature.
https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-uiSifting through an alphabetical community list doesn’t sound very useful, though. There are tens of thousands of communities on Lemmy, and most are inactive.
- Comment on Request to mod c/india 4 weeks ago:
You are now the new mod of !india@lemmy.world. Thanks for volunteering!
I filed a report in the community so you can see what those look like from whatever client(s) you normally use.
- Comment on Request to mod c/fallout 4 weeks ago:
Sure thing. You are the new moderator. Have fun!
Note that, due to a bug in Lemmy, you will not be able to see reports in the community since your account is on a different instance. You could work around it by making a lemmy.world account just for moderating.
@pointzer0@lemmy.world I’m mentioning you here for transparency in case you come back to Lemmy.
- Comment on Requesting ownership of the Fallout Mods community. 4 weeks ago:
Sure thing. You are the new moderator. Have fun!
Note that, due to a bug in Lemmy, you will not be able to see reports in the community since your account is on a different instance. You could work around it by making a lemmy.world account just for moderating.
@comcreator@lemmy.world I’m mentioning you here for transparency in case you come back to Lemmy.
- Comment on What's the correct procedure for getting admin help in becoming a mod for a community where the only mods listed are inactive? 1 month ago:
I gave you the mod role. Have fun!
As the other commenter mentioned, your account will not receive reports for the community due to a bug in Lemmy. As a workaround, you could create a lemmy.world account and make it a moderator in the community.
- Comment on Requesting /fantheories 2 months ago:
Done. You are now the mod of !fantheories@lemmy.world. Sorry for the slow response.
@FizzlePopBerryTwist@lemmy.world I’m mentioning you here for transparency. You don’t have any visible Lemmy activity for months, so I assume you are inactive.
- Comment on Requesting /c/ipod 3 months ago:
I gave you the mod role in !ipod@lemmy.world. Enjoy! :-)
- Comment on Requesting /c/ipod 3 months ago:
Do you have a plan for what you will do with the community? Not to be rude, but you already mod over 50 communities and many of them are inactive or empty. We’re a bit hesitant to consolidate large numbers of communities under a single user.
- Comment on Why is my post hidden from lemmy.world instance? 3 months ago:
That’s odd. It seems like your post didn’t federate from feddit.org to lemmy.world for some reason. There does not appear to be significant federation lag between the two instances at the moment.
It’s visible now. I pasted the feddit.org URL into the search bar on lemmy.world, which forces lemmy.world to fetch the post.
Your original post from feddit.org: feddit.org/post/4049097
Now visible on lemmy.world: lemmy.world/post/21190240 - Comment on How can I unmod a user? 4 months ago:
Try using the Photon front end. For adding and removing mods, it is more flexible than the standard lemmy-ui front end.
- Comment on Fallout New Vegas Community 5 months ago:
I added you as a mod. The existing mod has no activity for over a year. Note that, since your account is on a different insurance than the community, you will not receive community reports. It’s a known bug in Lemmy. I recommend making a lemmy.world alt and adding it to the community mod team, then checking it occasionally for reports.
I left the original mod in place in case they come back. I noticed Tolstoy said they would be contacting the old mod.
@Lukjam@lemmy.world, mentioning you here for transparency in case you come back to Lemmy and won’t what happened.
- Comment on Top level comments sometimes end up as a reply to another random comment 5 months ago:
That’s bizarre. I have not experienced that with the stock lemmy-ui in Firefox, nor in the Summit app on Android. You have only seen it in Jerboa, correct?
- Comment on [Abandoned community] lemmyinstances@lemmy.world 5 months ago:
Done.
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 5 months ago:
Yes, that is a problem. No single solution is perfect, and VPN blocks are only one tool in the toolbox. Every instance is different, and admins pick the tools that they think will work best for their situation. VPN blocking happens to be a tool that seems to have worked well for lemmy.world.
Instances that lack moderation and have a history of being used by trolls tend to get the nuclear option: they are defederated by the big Lemmy instances. That’s not ideal at all, but the tool set for Lemmy moderation is very limited right now.
- Comment on Please allow VPNs 5 months ago:
Short answer: no.
I don’t mean to be rude. The desire to use VPNs is completely understandable. Unfortunately, VPNs were being abused in ways that were detrimental to the community here. Last year there were several waves of really grotesque troll posts (CSAM, scat porn, etc.) on lemmy.world and other instances. Blocking VPNs was one of the responses that was effective in stopping those posts. The admin team has no interest in backtracking at this time.
You have moderation here
We have unpaid volunteers donating their spare time. Nobody wants to spend their lunch break purging CSAM posts from some troll. And no users want a post to stay up for hours because the mods were asleep, at work, or otherwise not watching the Lemmy feed. (That actually happened, and is what drove me to donate some of my time here.) If law enforcement ever does come knocking, this instance doesn’t have the money or time to mount a defense.
I wish things were different. This is the unfortunate reality that this particular instance has faced. Other instances may feel differently.
- Comment on [Abandoned community] lemmyinstances@lemmy.world 5 months ago:
The mod (@comcreator@lemmy.world does look inactive.
Is there another community you think users should be directed to?
- Comment on [Abandoned community] Asking for !nextfuckinglevel@lemmy.world to be closed 5 months ago:
In this case the mod is an active Lemmy user. They have posts and comments within the past day. It should be up to them to decide if they want to leave their community open, or lock their community and direct users elsewhere.
@ME5SENGER_24@lemmy.world mentioning you here since it’s your community being discussed.
- Comment on Constantly getting logged out 6 months ago:
This has been happening to me and others as well, across multiple Lemmy instances. The common thread seems to be Firefox. I assume something changed in a recent Firefox update?
If anyone figures out the root cause, I would love to hear about it.
- Comment on Didn't save the message but want to say thank you for the person who told me about bot accounts. I cleared up my list because of you and much love to you ....no sarcasm. 6 months ago:
For the curious, here’s the thread OP is referring to: https://lemmy.world/post/18504118
Looks for the comments by MrKaplan.
- Comment on May have asked this before if I have just ignore but how can lemmy's appeal a ban from a certain community? 6 months ago:
For each community that banned you, you need to send a message to one of the mods in that community. The modlog shows that you are currently banned from !asklemmy@lemmy.ml and !asklemmy@lemmy.world. Go to each of those communities, look in the community’s sidebar, and you will see the names of the community mods. Click on one of the mods’ names, hit the Send Message button in their profile, and say your piece. It’s up to them to decide if they want to unban you.
- Comment on How come it shows now I have 8 messages and 0 PM's but when I click to check my messages it is just the two I am saving? 6 months ago:
Hmmm. I’m short of ideas. Are one of these filters selected?
- Comment on How come it shows now I have 8 messages and 0 PM's but when I click to check my messages it is just the two I am saving? 6 months ago:
Are you using an app, or a browser? I’m wondering if you have some open reports from the communities you moderate. Apps generally don’t handle reports well, and some mix them in with private messages.

- Comment on Can I take over askhistorians? 6 months ago:
I’m hesitant to take a community from an existing moderator and hand it to a new user who has only been on Lemmy for a few days. I suggest you start by interacting for a while - make posts, try to drive discussions, get a feel for this place and how it works - before jumping into moderating multiple communities.
- Comment on Requesting c/Bangladesh, it has no mods currently 6 months ago:
I passed your request on to the lemmy.world community team.
Note that !bangladesh@lemmy.ml already exists and is active. Though there is no harm in having another community on lemmy.world.
If your goal is to keep communication open during another government shutdown of the internet, then perhaps you should try to host an instance locally in Bangladesh? Lemmy.world is hosted in Europe, so if you lose connection to the outside world then a community on this instance would be inaccessible.
