/0

Nor do I have hate for you or the /0 instance in fact in the vote post majority of the hexbear users feel the same way.

There are no downvotes and the culture of commenting dissent might make it feel like there are so many that want to burn the bridge but based on every instance wide federation check in more enjoy /0 and the users than dislike.

I used an alt because you are banned from hexbear so posts you make don't show up, i guess I could've done it in matrix but decided to do it publically. Yeah I care about you and your opinion over every other instance (except the .ml ones, tankies gotta stick together) and despite what you may think didn't want to ban you. Getting a

If you want to develop a culture where users feel safe to report direct messages you need to act on them regardless of who they are. I've banned many longtime hexbear users and moderators for the same thing.

I've removed all the posts regarding you and Unruffled that I was aware of and didn't know that the pfp post was even about you, the primary account I use has avatars disabled. Reporting that post would have helped in getting it addressed. For what it's worth the person you direct messaged actually removed one of the posts about you after it was reported.

Moderation can always improve, just as there were criticisms of the way that the meme in /c/piracy was handled there are criticisms to be made of how moderation is on hexbear communities. Just as there is hate and animosity towards /0 users and admins there is hate and animosity towards hexbear users and admins.

I said you were banned for dm harassment of a moderator, as that is what happened. Had you said the same thing in a comment the action would have likely been different. I apologize that you've received harassing direct messages and for the unreliable cross-instance reporting.

It is the responsibility of both moderator and user to cultivate a community. With active moderation on one hand and reporting on the other. I don't think it's fair to criticize moderation without doing your part.

I'm saddened that this ended up how it did and apologize for any stress you experienced.

I won't be logging back onto this account for awhile, thanks for your previous comment and i wish you the best.
