Yeah they get crazy anytime they’re questioned. But world seems to love having them as a mod so 🤷good for them?
My experience is similar to LibertyLizard. A lot of the time they’re just doing regular mod stuff, but every once in a while they go Cartman and just escalate every minor little critique. This is definitely not the first time I’ve noticed them going off the rails for seemingly minor criticism.
The other mods should be reeling him in when this happens and ideally he should be the one calling them in. I’ve modded before, and we’d go to our fellow mods if we were getting heated. Easier to get the sanity check and if you’re in the right to have a third party step in to do the mod actions. I’m not sure how active they really are though. Since there’s no “message the mods” system I had to go down the mod list to find someone to lodge the complaint with. Only a few of them post to Lemmy regularly.
Last time I looked at it the Lemmy world mods discord server was just a giant dick sucking contest where they just egg each other on with shit like this, I wouldn’t expect any of them to call each other out.
When they have an issue with a specific user they will rally around the group to build dislike for that particular user posting screen shots and berating them between themselves.
I haven’t been on there for 6 months + as I deleted my discord account but I doubt much has changed in that time.
I was gobsmacked that “I’ll remove it to spite you” didn’t even warrant some bullshit like “we agree that that was an inappropriate thing for a mod to say”, even if they backed him on the strict no image posts stance. That’s really inexcusable, and the very core of the problem.
The one time I took something to the world admins, they said it was fine because nothing was happened after the time period listed.
Then if you don’t like it just message us privately and we’ll totally look again
Im in favor defederating .world.
This explains a lot of behaviour I saw last year. These clowns are pathetic
