This is why piefed implemented an anonymous voting option, so power tripping mods can't ban you for down voting their posts.

Never mind, I guess the power tripping mods got it removed.

He's banned me from all his communities. Power tripper and disingenuous in how he engages

PugJesus has always rubbed me the wrong way. He always inserted whataboutisms in rambling ways which put the onus on you to figure out his esoteric points. Then you try to answer what you think he's trying to convey, and he just roasts you on that instead.

Very bad faith mod/Lemming that should be avoided should you care for your mental health

How do you see your ban reasoning?

Ugh, Pugjesus, no surprises here

Blocking pugjeasus is the best move anyone on lemmy can do

Meanwhile PugJesus is banned from db0 due to stalking and mass downvoting my account, and said the admins were abusing authority for banning him while he confessed doing it with joy.

What a joke of a person he is. At least he's started to into his own echo chamber instead of trying to convert spaces into his own. I remember when he would mass report people disagreeing with him, while giving citations that said he was wrong. The mods told him to stop reporting people who weren't breaking any rules, and he told them to do it anyways.

Needless to say, PTB.

It seems lately they've at least stopped making a thing about throwing shitfits in communities they don't control and moderate.

So as far as I am concerned: it's their mind palace. I wouldn't take their mod actions seriously or personally.

Nevermind they must've seen this thread and my Local feed is now filling with MeanwhileOnGrad posts about users in this thread.

1. Do yourselves a favor and pe-emptively block PG’s communities. He’ll just delete anything you say counter to his “Vaguely Left-Wing” point of view, and he’ll perhaps ban you. He curates them to be ideological bubbles.
2. I and other mods & admins do ban people for vote spamming. For instance: 1) in the case of alt accounts that some people use solely for voting multiple times, 2) in the case of people who always downvote specific communities and 3) in the case of people who downvote a particular person regardless of the content.

Edit to add: He posts almost exclusively to the communities he mods.

Just block PJ. They're a turbolib troll. You'll feel better not seeing the junk they crank out.

PTB/CLM.

I think that "Mass downvoting" is a valid reason for a community ban, but I would expect a temp ban if it is not a repeating behavior.

But it isn't trolling by itself. That bad qualified ban could have a bad impact in others mods or admins evaluating the OP behavior.

May be in the future, communities should choose who can vote (subscribed, instance members or any user) and then only been show in the corresponding feeds. But I suspect that most of the mods that ban downvoters don't want that they community posts don't be shown in the All feed.

Question, how come you don't just block them or the community or something, if you don't care to see their content?

One could always curate their own feed instead.

There is an option in your settings so you don't see upvotes or downvotes.

None of these imaginary points matter. I couldn't imagine spending my time wringing my hands over how others vote. Or wasting my life looking up every comment and post, agonizing over who voted and how.

But its your life though, go nuts nutzos. Consider defederating if your skin is this paper thin.

(Lemmy is rad)

I need to see the posts in question to really give a judgement here.
