Instance is midwest.social. Not a solitary clue who the admin was who did it.

A friend was wondering why they hadn’t seen my posts and figured I’d been banned from lemmy.world or just left in general. I went to his instance and saw that in the modlog.

Not a damn clue as to why. There are no post removals, no comment removals, no temp bans and I never got any messages from any of the admins about anything that I did. Just one day, they randomly banned me for racism without rhyme nor reason. I have literally nothing that I can point towards and say “This is the reason why” because they never bothered to do anything other than ban me.

I am many things. I am an asshole, I’m a vindictive bitch, I’m a petty prick, I’m often antagonistic, I’m also a whiny bitch. But racist?

Edit:

Well okay then

    That’s a major flaw in lemmy. No ban notifications. Or, I’ve never gotten one. Like, rock n roll, ban me, especially if it’s justified. But since lemmy doesn’t let me know, if a mod doesn’t send a “fuck off and die” note, I may not find out I’m banned for months (like your situation, it wasn’t until someone else brought it to my attention).

    But I do have multiple accounts, and if you want to ban me instead of just this account, you gotta let me know so I can filter shit out so I don’t vote on an alt or make a comment while I’m piddling around or whatever.

    Also, apologies for going off topic since the mod action taken against the OP is the point of posting here, PTB. With no specifics given, and the total lack of anything hinting at racism in your years on lemmy, I can’t see this being a justified ban. Like you said, you’re human enough to put on an asshole hat now and then (less than me most likely, but still), but racism just isn’t something you’ve indulged in even in jest that I’ve ever seen.

        I’ve removed two posts in the one comm im a mod of (that isn’t just a personal comm) and both times i responded in the post explaining why it’s deleted, before removing the post. That’s the only way I know of that will alert a person they’ve been moderated.

        I’ve never gotten a notification for anything of mine that’s been removed or banned.

            Lemmy.world will send notices but not all instances do.

            Must be recent, when I was banned they didn’t give me a notice. They eventually wrote an entire post about it, but never let me know directly.
