Reddit banned me today for making a joke that the patch title for Guild Wars 2 could match real life events.

What is the patch name? The Mad King and his Lunatic Court.

Permanently banned for what? Harassment.

Insult to the king, off with your head!

Not how I expected GW2 to come up on Lemmy.... But here we are hahaha

[–] nekbardrun@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

Well.... no surprising since we ought to have the molengrad.

im not surprised if the filters is looking for any "anti-trump" comments, they probably will ignore certain bots and not users.

I wish I could say I'm shocked. That site has fallen off so hard it's crazy. The censorship has gone mad. It's the main reason I'm here.

Hopefully the mods on lemmy don't go power hungry

Wouldn't really matter in a federated network like this. Mods banned you from a community? Make a new one. Account banned? Move to another instance.

There's zero reason to feel attached to online accounts like these, which is the only thing you can lose on Lemmy.

A few have. But when it happens people just start frequenting alternative communities. The good karma flows like water through the easiest path. So when an admin or a mod says they find the term bro offensive, people just unsub and find a better community.

its pretty hard to get power mods here, since you isolate and sequester them by defederating, or block thier content. on reddit, you can get subreddit banned(mods), and sitewide banned(admins)

Must be the AI profiling system and how it flags anyone even remotely talking about POTUS.
