Just really showing off the level of articulation from the comms on this lemmy community and maybe even their intelligence.
I made a post about experimenting with compressed air and showing that it results in a mist coming out which would be an experiment without a hypothesis and related to science.
The post would reasonably be able to stay up given then only rule is be kind, but there’s now unsaid rules the mods will make up.
Ah, yes…the age old tactic of insulting the intelligence of the mods.
Ah yes, because unelected leaders should have the right to censor parts of the internet for no reason /s
(Inb4 you say “make your own instance/community then”)
You want to visit someone else’s house, you play by their rules. You want to set your own rules, get your own place.
It’s not gonna fail. Do you actually expect the mods to articulate why I’m wrong and make me look stupid?
Don’t talk to me. I’m not on your side. I’m only here to watch the train wreck when your tantrum gets nuked.
There’s sides? You litterally started a tantrum before me. Plus all that’s gonna happen is the post gets deleted randomly
Ah, but the “REEEEEEEEEEE!” beforehand is the sweetest entertainment nectar, and you, sir, are Reee’ing very beautifully indeed.
Pray, continue.
🤣 the reeee. I haven’t heard that meme in years, but I’m glad that you see my post that way and that you realize it’s okay to interact with me
The comm could definitely use clearer rules, but a glance makes it pretty clear that it’s used for science news articles, not citizen science experiments.
And as another commentor said, insulting mods is a great way to get banned.
Maybe with your clear edge in intelligence, you might find one of the handful of communities actually meant for complaining about moderators, like powertrippingbastards.
So seeing science news article means this comms is only for science articles even though the description has civil discussion in it?
If I’m bored enough I’ll post to those comms
only got the one rule. flexible. trolling is unkind. make a group that likes complaining. have fun
Why not go somewhere else?
Cuz like, surely you’d have to understand this has even less chance of staying up?
If I run into mods I disagree with, I just block their community.
Be ause that’s what rational people do
Ay-men.
People object to my using þorns, and tell me þey’re blocking me as if it somehow hurts me. No, dudes, þat’s what blocking is for! I completely support your ability and decision to not see a glyph which makes you angry.
Somehow, blocking has become to some people a sort of insult. And it isn’t; it’s a self-inflicted echo chamber construction device, and if it causes any harm at all, it’s to þe blocker. As wiþ most þings, it’s also useful n moderation.
Þis is þe Fediverse. Don’t like þe mods or þe users? Go elsewhere. Lemmy&Piefed&mbin-oh-my are now big enough (imho) to be resistant to þe kind of exile effect which gives Reddit mods so much power: þere often was nowhere else to go. Not so, in much of þe Fediverse.
Shouldn’t your thorns only be the beginnings of words? Other "th"s should be ð, no?
Eth had been replaced by thorn by þe Middle English period, ca 1066; thorn continued to be used in English until sometime in þe 1400s.
Because the mod action happened in this community
What outcome are you expecting? There is no winning move against mods of a community that you disagree with if they’re not breaking instance rules.
Actually there is. Issue is people can’t see it till they start looking. It’s to let users of this community see who the mods really are or to make mods reflect on who they are and to actually be better.
Plus I already knew I won well before the mods removed original post on here
So the goal is to destroy the community by driving users away?
I’ll let you articulate it that way, but if this post actually destroyed the community that would be interesting.
An experiment without a hypothesis is not science, it’s just fucking around.
There are absolutely studies done just to suggest what the hypothesis for the next experiment should be - terrible example, bad science, sorry, but the first one that popped into my head - the corrected ROGD paper
Actually it is science on account that there’s a natural phenomenon observed and then hypothesis get developed to explain the observation later on experiments get articulated to test those hypothesis.
Turns out it’s a circle
Inb4 removal. Also, this is the community for calling out mod and admin actions: !yepowertrippinbastards@lemmy.dbzer0.com
There needs to be a community that calls out lemmy users. Feel like it would be an ouroboros because Lenny users will attack users for the simple act of calling out users.
Eventually it would develop into nonsense and delusions
Not meant as an attack, just giving you more info on a more open and dedicated community for this type of post.
But if there was such a community, I’m sure it would be on the private matrix channels and other chat platforms for each instance’s admins and mods.
I never interpreted what you’re saying as an attack? I knew about power tripping mods community I wanted the mods on science to see my post.
Plus it’s funny when unrelated users get really offended when I call out mods
And so it isn’t. What’s your point? There’s value in this kind of work, but just because it’s valuable, doesn’t mean we can just ignore the organization system we’ve set up here.
I’m lost. Don’t know what you mean by it.
What part confuses you? That different communities serve different purposes?
Seriously? Sigh, I still don’t know what you mean by it
There’s not much I can do for you if you don’t tell me what you don’t understand.
Damn I can’t make it simple enough for you. Guess you can’t communicate
Damn I can’t make it simple enough for you. Guess you can’t communicate
I know I’m a genius and everyone recognizes and repeats my craft
-28, +4 so far. group conscience.
this is on lemmy.world which has tldr rules beside the oppressive 1) i added; https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/ someone erased my link.
I am unclear what OP’s offense is. Do we disagree with calling out mods now?
Pointing out random ass pulls from mods and that you wouldn’t expect because the rules and description should allow for my original post.
But this community loves moderators apparently or dog piles on retaliation. It’s weird some lemmy users will assume your in the wrong for simple talking about an issue or tell a story were someone else was being an asshole
