The post in question, if interested:

Also, I don’t know how to see which mod/admin banned me, so if you know how to in the modlog, definitely let me know.

Banned for 7 days, so I’m not super mad or anything - I just thought it was funny.

Honestly I don’t blame them - I’d be embarrassed about people finding out my community was on .ml too.

    BPR & YDI. It’s perfectly reasonable to disklike .ml’s moderation practices, but you effectively went into their community just to troll them about it. What did you expect to happen? 7 days seems reasonable to me, and it’s only a community ban.

    I mean, if you’re dangling bait, don’t be surprised when the trout start biting.

    Bpr, absolutely.

    I mean, I get it, ml really does take that extra attention because if the community is there, or a user is from there, chances are that you’re going to run into zealotry eventually.

    But when you make the effort to poke at the scab, it’s not really on them when they poke back.

    Truth is, of wouldn’t even need to be .ml, if you did something similar anywhere, a temp ban is legit. Shit stirring can only be tolerated so much, so you have to make it clear that is isn’t going to work out the way the stirrers want, otherwise it snowballs

      Wow, that’s the real reason why the deleted comment isn’t quoted in the original post. That’s clear YDI case, the moderator did a good job by kicking out the bad faith troll.

    I am too lazy to cut-and-paste links, but we were just having a discussion about you. (Just read the last couple of posts in my profile history for more information.)

        Isn’t that funny the guy who said people should be nice to Nazis chimes in and says blanket trolling .ml for no reason is fine.

          Oh I’d LOVE to see where I said that. Please direct link to where I said anything remotely close to that.

              ROFL!

              Okay, I get it now. You’re one of those people that think anyone that disagrees with you are Nazis, and my opining that you being an absolute shit to people because they disagreed with you somehow makes me a Nazi sympathizer……

              Oh, and if anyone happened to check that link, I’d like you to note all the other “Nazis” that told this clown they deserved it.

              Fucking hilarious!

              I’m going to tag you as “funny!” And keep an eye on you. That’s some quality comedy!

                People who defend the deportation of people protesting against 2 million people being starved in a concentration camp are Nazis.

                You barging into this thread to defend a concern troll makes it clear how much value your opinion hold. You know how to criticize people to the left of you and the most extremist radical right wingers get a pass.

                  I’m not defending shit, and haven’t defended shit since this discussion began.

                  You showed your ass and you got shut down. That’s how rules work. You don’t get to violate them just because you’re passionate about your point. And it doesn’t even matter if you’re right about it-

                  You broke the fucking rules. Quit crying and get over it.

    Yes this is very low-hanging fruit at this point. Effectively you’re attacking their whole instance in their own spaces, so this is BPR. Personally I don’t agree with banning people because they criticize your instance, unless it becomes harassment, but I can see why the .ml mods are fed up with it. There’s like a dozen of threads about bans like this every week on !meanwhileongrad@sh.itjust.works

    PTB for sure.

    And which of the two admins were responsible for this I wonder. Because the community moderation teams of .ml don’t ever seem to do jack shit.
