I was not posting on their instance communities much recently after I promised to pause. The first modlog warning did not reach my inbox on a mobile app using Piefed.ca then the head admin responds a bit too aggressively then makes 3-day warning bans from communities that they personally moderate.

Original warning that I was not notified about in my inbox:

Callout by top admin of Beehaw:

3-day warning bans.

    That’s one possible interpretation but the modlog doesn’t explicitly state this.

    Did you make any posts on Beehaw between the above conversation and the banning? Maybe they still considered your reduced rate of posts too high. If not, then I agree that would be very weird.

    Either way, I think this is a good argument to have an explicit rule regarding what constitutes “too much” rather than relying on common sense which is highly subjective.

      The modlog doesn’t have to state it for it to be the case. Intentions can be masked.

      I barely made any posts due to the earlier conversation.

      I agree with that. However a remote poster posting outside their instance should not warrant a ban on their instance for this.
