I’ve made 3 posts to that community, none of which were in that span of time. So it had to be due to my accounts posting history. For the clarification, I open a window with all of the tabs of communities I am going to post to and add links/images and then titles. I then scroll down, ctrl tab, and hit submit. I’m not a bot. Which the mod could have just like… asked. But fine. He may not have the common decency to even ask a question before jumping to conclusions but i’ll stop posting them so fast. Don’t know which moderator it is but given that @Demigodrick@lemmy.zip is the only active moderator over there… fairly sure it was him.
Could just ask next time dude.
Edit: That’s a lot of downvotes for not saying anything one way or another.
Edit 2: Ask questions? Get downvoted with no answers. Be polite? Get hostility for no reason. Wow.
I mean, you’re a two day old account that made 16 posts across different communities in about 7s, you’ve got to admit that that is bot-like behaviour. Still, your explanation makes sense, so I don’t think anyone is necessarily in the wrong here (there doesn’t seem to be an acronym for that yet).
You’re going to need to have someone else reach out to Demigodrick though, as you’re instance banned from .zip.
It is bot-like behavior, sure, but a simple question could have also cleared it all up. Making a snap judgment off of a cursory glance with no follow-up while having a bot on the moderation team? I dunno. Sounds like PTB to me.
I can see why your account might have looked sus with such rapid posting, but it also feels a bit extreme to jump to a ban with no further signs of being a bot.
Your post history is varied enough and you comment, which lends more credence to you not being a bot.
Personally I think the mods overreacted here and you should be unbanned.
Eh. Even if I am unbanned, what’s the point? I wasn’t banned from the gaming community, I was banned from the entire instance because of jumped to conclusions.
I’d say PTB if the instance ban isn’t reversed.
2 days later? Then PTB it is ¯_(ツ)_/¯
Well they’re the admin of the site, they can reverse the instance ban too. Hopefully it’s all just a mistake that can be fixed.
Seeing as they won’t see your mention, I’ll ping them here to let them know @demigodrick@lemmy.zip
That looks like an automated ban for making three posts in one second. If you didn’t do that, or you had good non-bot reasons to make three posts in no time flat, you should contact the mod of the community and ask them to please unban you
My guess is their automation is a bit strong
It’s not automated, mod log doesn’t show Gaming Bot being the account to ban.
Welcome to Lemmy bud. It’s just a bunch of twats, just like Reddit.
My solution for removing all mod-anxiety is to get a new account every week or so. Just make it part of your Lemmy experience. No one can tag you, no one can ban you, no one can control you.
I’m trying to find a community. I’m not trying to just throw away a name every couple of weeks.
You won’t find that on Lemmy. No matter what, you’re gonna get banned for something stupid because the mod is an ass. That’s why this community is so mod-focused.
Downvoted for complaining about downvotes.
Also feels like fairly bot-like behavior to me.
I’m not complaining about the downvotes. I was just pointing it out because no one had said anything.
I’m not a bot though and I’m not using one. My point was the moderator banned me for something they themselves are promoting and didn’t actually check in on anything, just made an assumption.
Why are you so hostile?
The attitude of people on Reddit and Lemmy is unbearable…
I feel sorry for you…
It’s only getting worse, and it’s unbearable…
I’m not complaining about the downvotes.
You made an entire edit to do so.
I’m not a bot though and I’m not using one.
When did you tell them that?
Why are you so hostile?
Not sure how one could reasonably interpret two lines of text with zero insults that way.
You made an entire edit to do so.
Didn’t complain. Complaining is to express dissatisfaction or annoyance. I was expressing surprisal at a number of downvotes but no response.
When did you tell them that?
I was never given a chance. They didn’t ask. They just banned me for being a bot without questioning whether I was one or not. I reached out to them after realizing but because they instance banned me they won’t even see it.

Okie dokie.
Didn’t complain. Complaining is to express dissatisfaction or annoyance.
Edit 2 be like
was never given a chance. [To tell them]
Were you blocked from DM’ing the person you suspect banned you?
Presuming you weren’t: To me it looks like you were upset you weren’t communicated with prior to a ban so you in turn chose not to communicate with folks who put said ban into place and made a post here about it, which one has to admit, feels a bit hypocritical, especially when it appears you agree that the lead-in to the situation could raise a brow.
Edit 2 be like
Which happened after your initial comment. Your initial complaint is invalid.
Were you blocked from DM’ing the person you suspect banned you?
I was banned from the entire instance which means I cannot contact anyone from that instance to say that I’m not a bot. I was never asked if I was a bot. This has been covered now numerous times in both comments to you, the post itself, and elsewhere in this thread.

You really like to jump to your own conclusions without facts and then act on your assumptions. You’ve also been hostile and antagonistic for no reason. You are not worth my time. Goodbye.
You are not worth my time. Goodbye.
Okie dokie.
