I banned a subscriber from one of my communities today for repeatedly breaking the rules. I also blocked them because I find them aggressive and argumentative and I’m not here for that personally. But what happens when their ban from the community ends and they decide to post in the community again? Will I still see their...
I haven’t modded on another site before and I was starting to wonder how people do it! When I initially tried to ban the user I was only offered the option to block them, presumably because no one had reported their comments. That prevented me from seeing the comments that needed to be deleted. I had to unblock the user, report their comments myself (from my mod account, reporting them to me) and then delete the rule breaking comments and ban them.
For the sake of transparency I’d rather not use a different account to comment on posts in my communities, but if I have to then so be it. I’ll use the same username on a different instance. I feel like I should be able to delete comments or ban subscribers while browsing posts from my mod account though. Reporting comments to myself seem ridiculously inefficient.
Thank you for that! I don’t understand all of those terms but I got the gist! For what my opinion is worth, I think blocking a user as a mod should only block them from communities you don’t moderate. Or moderators should be advised to create separate mod/user accounts.
Do you know what happens if someone I’ve previously blocked, then posts to a community I moderate? I was a user before I was a mod and blocked unpleasant people. Could they be making posts or commenting on threads within my communities and I’m not even seeing them? That really interferes with my ability to mod.
I thought they were coming at me a bit hard, they just wanted to argue with (and insult) me about anything they could. But tbh I can be a bit sensitive so I held off banning them for longer than I might have done if another user reported them for the same thing. Thank you for the reassurance that I wasn’t being reactionary because my feelings were hurt.
I don’t know what I’m missing but I can’t see options to delete/ban while browsing. I usually browse from IOS apps and open lemmy in my phone browser to mod but I used my laptop for this and still couldn’t see it. Also, I’m only given the option to ban for a set number of days, there’s no permaban option. Do I just put a high 4 digit number in?
I will definitely join the mod support you mentioned, and again, thank you for your help!
There’s only the option to block or report, not remove or ban. I tried it on more than one comment. Interestingly I am given ban and remove options on the Lemmios app:
I’m so confused why this was necessary. Why not just have a straight railing across? You could use the space for decorative purposes - it can be easily accessed and cleaned from the stairs. This is just bizarre.
I started a community !downtherabbithole for this kinda thing but written content isn’t as easy to find as videos unfortunately. I’m like you and much prefer reading to watching. There’s at least one text link there that’s an interesting read. I think there’s a long-form community on lemmy too, that might scratch an itch?
You have to have an instagram account in order to have a threads account - it’s how you log in. I think whatever your Instagram handle is becomes your threads handle, or it’s saved for you.
I wanted to see what it was like so I created a new Instagram account (not linked to any of my real personal info) and then a new threads account. I had a look for a couple of days and decided it was dogshit so I deleted both. I suspect an awful lot of people did exactly that.
The badrealestatepics account on Instagram posted it 4 years ago but I can’t find a listing. Might be too old. There’s tons of poorly photoshopped estate agent photos out there though.
I think the white walls and the new build-ness is what makes this seem off to me. Vampire chic is not my style at all but I can appreciate some people might like it. But it just looks a bit icky with the white walls!
My best guess is it’s a loft conversion, but rather than having just one big room they’ve partitioned off the part under the eaves for… reasons. They had to remove one of the back legs from the desk so it would fit, and made it a three legged table. The random cable is holding it up/steady. They have a wheeled chair and no safety rail because while they may work a desk job, they’re an adrenaline junkie at heart.
If you’re having a difficult time at the moment, message me with the country/region you live in and I’ll find some free mental health resources for you.
Posts like this are not appropriate for this community. I’m going to delete your comment but that doesn’t mean people don’t care. DM me if you need to.
No need to send the estate agent, we’ll take the photos ourselves… (lemmy.world)

If I personally block a user, can I still see their posts in a community I moderate?
