I sent the MOD this message:
Hi XXXXXXXX, I just noticed that you banned me 2 hours ago from c/Science for Spam. I am confused. I mostly lurk and haven’t commented or posted anything in several months. I definitely don’t post ads or spam. Can you please let me know what happened?
The only reason that I noticed that I am banned is that I watched that (long-ish) video about Brainrot on the feed and the top comment is asking for a tldw.
There’s nothing indicating that specifically. But if you’re downvoting THAT much more, it’s notable. There are people I see that I regularly downvote for solid reasons. Hypocrisy, whataboutism etc. But vote totals don’t get that lopsided without some effort. All that means ultimately it’s the ratio is lopsided.
So let’s ban those who doesn’t downvote enough? /s
It’s a stupid argument IMO, and as with all statistics you can show what you want with it. That doesn’t mean the person didn’t downvote abusively of course, just that you can’t tell from global statistics.
